How to Fix Instagram Feed Shows Only Old Posts?

To fix this error, you can find the solution to the problem by following the suggestions below.

1-) Login with Browser

Unfortunately, when we log in with the application, Instagram does not cause us any problems, but prevents our access to our account. For this, we can try to log in to our account with the help of any browser. For this, open any browser and try to log in to your account by accessing Instagram.com.

2-) Turn Off Vpn Connection

HavingaVPN connection open in the background may restrict your access to the application. This is because Instagram bots detect your access to the account suspiciously and restrict your access. Therefore, if the VPN connection is open in the background, turn it off and try to connect to your account again.

3-) Change Your Password

As we said above, this error we encountered may require you to change your password because suspicious login was detected. For this, you can try to change your password by not logging into your account. This will allow safe and suspicious logins for Instagram to end.

4-) Restart Your Internet

Suspicious logins detected by Instagram artificial intelligence are banned over the IP address, preventing users from logging into the account. We can solve this problem by renewing our IP address. If you are providingaWi-Fi connection, turn the modem off, and if you are connecting over mobile data, turn your mobile data connection off and on again. After this process, your IP address can be renewed and it can help us to solve it.

5-) Do Not Use Third Party Application

Using third-party applications may cause you to encounter various errorslike these. If you are using applications such as Instagram++, you arelikely to encounter this error. For this, try to access your account by deleting the application such as Instagram ++ and downloading it from Google Play or App Store. Before trying this process, you can try to log in to your account by following the suggestion below.

6-) Application May Not Be Up-to-Date
