Step 2: Scroll down and Find people

Now you have to check the follower list. After opening the ‘Followers’ list, scroll down the page to check if someone is missing from the followers’ count. When doing this method, you should be aware of one thing: the person you accidentally unfollowed needs to be following you on Instagram. Otherwise, you can not find him in the ‘Followers’ list.

Step 3: Search & Follow them Again

After checking the ‘Followers’ list, you can follow them back if you happen to recognize someone you unfollowed by accident. Just click the ‘Follow’ button beside their username and start to follow them back. For those who are not on the list but remember their names, you can search for them from the ‘Search’ section and follow them again.

At the bottom of the bar, you can see there are five sections: ‘Home’, ‘Search’, ‘Reels’, ‘Activity’, and, last, your ‘Profile’.

So scroll down the list, and among the people, you are not following, find the person. You can also follow them again by clicking on the ‘follow’ option.
