With over a billion monthly active users, it is an excellent place to share your pictures and videos with people from all around the world. However, sometimes you may notice that Instagram has temporarily disabled your account, and you can\u2019t like or comment on any post. If this happens, you will likely see a message on your screen saying something like \u201cWe\u2019ve detected automated behavior on your account\u201d.<\/p>\n<p>This message can be frustrating and confusing as many Instagram users aren&#8217;t sure what they did wrong.

Stop using third-party apps or automation tools:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Third-party applications that promise to increase engagement on your posts are responsible for triggering this error. Instagram has strict policies regarding automated services that generate likes, comments, or follows, leading them to disable accounts associated with such activities.<br \/>\nTherefore if you have had any suspicious activity using third-party apps or automation tools recently, disable them immediately and re-access them after verifying their safety.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Secure_Your_Account\"><\/span>2.

Try having different passwords for each social media account. Also, enable two-factor authentication, which adds a layer of security by requiring confirmation from an authorized device before allowing access.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Take_A_Break\"><\/span>3.

Broadly refrain from engaging in other lushing activities, even moderation, while waiting for the banishment period to end.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Appealcontact_Instagram_support\"><\/span>4.
