Message requests are a way for people who aren’t already connected on Instagram to send you a message. This could be a potential customer, fan, or follower who wants to reach out to you.
To check your message requests on Instagram, first, open the app and sign in. Once you’re logged in, tap on the three lines in the top left corner of the main screen to open the menu. From there, select “Settings” and then “Messages.” Under “Message Requests,” you’ll be able to see all of the messages that have been sent to you that haven’t been opened yet.
If you don’t want to receive message requests from other users on Instagram, you can adjust your settings. To do this, open the Instagram app and go to your profile. Tap the three lines in the top left corner of the screen, and then tap Settings. Scroll down and tap Messages, and then toggle off the switch for Allow Message Requests.
There’s not a lot you can do to stop people from messaging you on Instagram, since it’s a public platform. However, you can adjust your settings so that only people you follow can send you messages. You can also block people who are harassing you or sending spam messages.
There is no one definitive way to see hidden messages on Instagram in 2020. Some methods include searching for specific terms or phrases in the app’s search bar, looking at the comments on a post, or using a third-party app.
When you accept a message request, the sender is notified and the message is sent to your inbox.
If you turn off message requests, people can’t send you messages, and you can’t send messages to people who aren’t your friends.
If you accept a message request on Instagram, the person who sent the request will be able to send you messages.
If you delete a message request on Instagram, the other person will not receive a notification that you deleted it.
It’s possible that your account has been identified as a high-value account by automated bots that seek to follow and engage with users who have a high number of followers. This is known as ‘follow churn’ and is often used by spammers in an attempt to increase their own following or to gain access to your account to spread spam. Unfortunately, there’s not much you can do to stop these bots from following you, but you can block them if they start to spam your account.
