Guides & tips
Everything on UnfollowCheck runs on one simple idea: Instagram already gives you your own account data, and that data answers questions the app itself won't. These guides walk you through each part — step by step, in plain English, and always without handing your password to anyone.

How to see pending follow requests
Requests you sent that were never answered don't appear anywhere in the app. Here's how to check them, cancel them, and see them all at once.
