FAQs

Q: Can I use this method without a Facebook account?
A: Yes, Instagram Login works without Facebook, but Facebook Login is more reliable for automation permissions.


Q: Can I instantly send a DM to new followers?
A: Meta policies don’t allow direct “new follower → DM” without interaction. Use Comment-to-DM, Story Reply, or Follow-Gated flows instead.
