A direct message on Instagram, commonly referred to as a DM, is a private message sent between two users on the platform. It allows users to have private conversations, share content, and communicate directly with each other outside of public posts and comments. Direct messages can be sent to individuals or to groups of people, and they can contain text, links, images, videos, and other media. DMs provide a more personal and intimate way of communication within the Instagram platform.

Yes, you can send messages to everyone whether or not they are in your friend list.

If it is a new account with no phone number, you would not have a good experience using this tool. It will work to some extent, but you must authenticate the account or prefer using an old one.

Because some users are not allowed to receive messages from strangers, sending messages will fail.

There is no definitive answer to this question as there is no set limit to the number of Instagram DMs you can send in one day. However, it is important to note that Instagram may flag your account for spamming or suspicious activity if you send too many DMs in a short period of time, which could result in your account being temporarily blocked or permanently disabled.
To avoid being flagged for spamming, it's best to limit the number of DMs you send in a day to a reasonable amount that is relevant to your purpose. Additionally, make sure that the content of your DMs is personalized, relevant, and valuable to the recipient, and avoid sending the same message to multiple people. Finally, be sure to adhere to Instagram's terms of service, community guidelines, and any applicable laws or regulations related to direct messaging.

Instagram limits the number of web requests in any given time period. Their limits are not exactly known, may change at any time, and will vary from account to account.

There are four main types of restrictions:

1. A 429 limit is very common. It usually takes between 1 and 15 minutes to clear.
2. A 400 restriction is occasionally hit and usually requires a simple account verification to be completed and restored.
3. A soft restriction is occasionally hit and usually lasts about 10 minutes, after which it can be restored.
4. Hard restrictions occur less frequently but last longer, usually at least 12 hours, sometimes up to 48 hours.

Here are some troubleshooting steps you can try:


1. Are you using any VPN or Proxy? If so, try disabling it and then attempt to use the extension again.

2. Sign out of instagram.com and then sign in again before attempting to export using the extension.

3. If you are trying to export content from a private Instagram account, ensure that you are following the account.
