Instagram Follower App

A Windows Forms app that logs into an Instagram account and reports who does not follow you back, using an automated Selenium-driven login and data-gathering flow.

  • C#
  • .NET
  • Selenium
  • Windows Forms

Problem

Instagram doesn’t surface who follows you but you don’t follow back, or the reverse, in any usable way. I wanted a desktop tool that computed that difference for an account automatically.

Approach

A Windows Forms desktop app (C# / .NET):

  • A Selenium Chrome Driver automates the login and scrapes the profile’s follower and following lists.
  • The app computes the difference between the two lists.
  • Results, including who does not follow you back, are presented in the app.
