Troubleshooting the Growth Tool (Not Working)

Updated this week

The Growth Tool is designed to automate story views and likes, helping boost visibility by surfacing your profile in others' notifications and drives profile visits organically

Common Reasons It Might Stop Working

- Scheduling issues: The tool runs only during your set “Activity Time.” If you’ve disabled operations outside normal business hours, it won’t run when expected

- Targeting misconfiguration: If your target audience list—hashtags, competitor accounts, locations—is empty or misdefined, the tool has no action queue.

- Instagram throttling: Instagram may flag overly aggressive automation as suspicious and limit activity, causing story engagements to halt.

Fixes

- Check scheduling settings: Ensure your Growth Tool is allowed to run during the desired hours.

- Validate targeting filters: Confirm you’ve defined at least one hashtag, competitor account, or region to target.

- Reduce automation volume: Scale down daily interactions to mimic natural user behavior and avoid hitting Instagram’s automation detection.

- Reach out to support: Use live chat or email (available Mon–Fri, 10 am–6 pm EST) for assistance troubleshooting
