It is not a tool for scraping, auto-following, auto-liking, or sending unsolicited mass cold DMs. You choose the triggers, content, and rules before an automation is published.

The app uses MagicDMβs shared production service so your workspace stays consistent across mobile and web. PRIVACY AND CONTROL We do not sell your personal information or your audienceβs data. You can disconnect Instagram, delete automations, export data, and request account deletion. See our Privacy Policy and Terms in the app or at magicdm.app. A MagicDM account and an eligible Instagram professional account are required for Instagram automation features.
