How can you reactivate your Instagram account?
You can quickly restore your Instagram account by signing in if it was temporarily disabled or cancelled. You will not be able to restore your account if it was deleted. If you’re having trouble signing in, you can contact Instagram customer service or try to fix typical problems.
Instagram gives you the option to deactivate or temporarily disable your account, in case you need a break from the social turmoil. If you have ever tried that, you should be aware of all these consequences that follow:
- Your account can only be disabled or deactivated once a week.
- You are free to cancel your Instagram account at any time.
- When you deactivate your account, you become invisible on this social network for as long as it is deactivated. During that time, no one will be able to contact you.
- Your data, including images, videos, direct messages, and other content, remains intact while your Instagram account is still inactive.
- Open the Instagram app or visit www.instagram.com in your web browser.
- Login to your Instagram account by entering your linked email address or mobile number followed by the password.
That’s all; your account has been reactivated; keep instagramming!
Another case where reactivation is feasible is if Instagram inadvertently canceled or disabled your account; in this case, the procedures to follow are different from those of the previous situation.
Instagram can disable your account even for minor reasons like:
- To login from a new/unrecognized device
- Due to using a VPN to access your account
- For making some failed login attempts
- Due to making too many posts, comments, etc.
- For frequent logons and logouts
So, there is a 100% chance that Instagram will be reactivated if it was deactivated accidentally or for any other small violation.
When you try to sign in or use the app after Instagram deactivates your account, you will see the following warning.
The message says: “Your account has been disabled for violating our terms. Learn how you can restore your account.”
Step 1 – Tap on “More info”.
Step 2: Doing this will direct you to a new page, probably in a browser and if not, you can go directly to this link: https://www.facebook.com/help/instagram/contact/606967319425038
Step 3 – Submit an appeal for your disabled or deactivated Instagram account. The appeal form will look similar to the image below. Information to enter on the form includes:
- Full name
- Your email address; the one linked to your Instagram
- Your Instagram username; ask your friends if you don’t remember
- Your phone number; can be any number you currently use
- The reason why you think your Instagram account was deactivated in error; tell them that he has not committed any violation and also explain to them what exactly he was doing when the deactivation occurred.
Step 4: Click ‘Submit’ and wait a few hours or maybe a few days for a response.
Most of the time, after filing an appeal, Instagram accounts that have been suspended just on suspicion are immediately reactivated.
The positive news appears as follows:
The word ‘permanent’ is scary when it is accompanied by another word ‘suppression’.
Now, imagine a situation where you have inadvertently deleted your Instagram permanently, or someone in your family has done this to remove the distraction from your life.
If you change your mind, Instagram only gives you 30 days to reactivate your deleted account. Therefore, you can quickly reactivate your account if you can acknowledge your mistake within the allotted time.
However, if the 30-day grace period has passed and you were unable to take action in time, you will receive the phrase “no users detected” when you try to log in or reset your lost Instagram password.
To check if you can still recover your permanently deleted Instagram account, here’s what you need to do to reactivate or restore it:
- Open the Instagram app or go to www.instagram.com in a web browser.
- Sign in to your account by entering your login credentials, i.e. email address or phone number and password.
- If there is still some time left before your Instagram account is permanently deleted, you will see the question “Do you want to continue using this account?” along with a message; tap ‘Keep Account’ to return to your Instagram account.
voila! Her Instagram account has been successfully reactivated.
It’s not always a mistake for Instagram to disable your account; Occasionally, your account may be removed for serious violations of Instagram’s terms of service and community guidelines.

“Please note that we may permanently delete an account that repeatedly violates the Community Guidelines or Terms of Use.”
So if you were involved in:
- post hate speech
- illegal activities
- Promotion of nudity and,
- Promotion of graphic violence
Don’t expect to reactivate your account because Instagram has deleted or permanently deactivated it. Also, everything on your profile, including your pictures, videos, comments, likes, and followers, will be completely deleted when you delete your account or when it is permanently deleted. In this scenario, you can only sign up for a new Instagram account.
