How to tell if someone on instagram restricted you?
Short answer
Restricting someone limits their interactions without notification. When restricted, their comments on posts remain hidden until approved, their messages are moved to a separate folder, and they can no longer see the user's activity status. This limits their engagement without explicitly informing them of the restriction. The restricted user's interactions are still visible to the person who restricted them.

Does Instagram notify you when someone views your profile?
No, Instagram does not notify you when someone views your profile. Regular profile visits are completely anonymous, so you cannot see a list of who looked at your page and no one can see when you look at theirs. The only view Instagram surfaces is on Stories, where the poster can see everyone who watched.
Can someone see if you look at their Instagram profile?
No, someone cannot see if you look at their Instagram profile. Browsing a public account, scrolling their photos, or checking their following list leaves no trace and triggers no alert. The only activity that is visible is watching their Story or sending a like or message, since those actions are attached to your username.
Can you see who looks at your Instagram the most?
No, Instagram gives you no official list of who looks at your account the most. The app does not rank profile visitors, and any app claiming to reveal your top stalkers is guessing or scraping. The closest real signal is your Story viewer list, which shows exactly who watched each Story you post.
Does Instagram show you who searched for you?
No, Instagram does not show you who searched for your name or visited your profile through search. Searches are private, and the app keeps no visible log of who typed your username. Any service promising a list of people who searched for you is fabricating results, because that data is simply not available.
