I’ve been trying to figure out if someone can tell when I’m online on instagram if they don’t follow me back. I checked the settings and turned off activity status, but I’m still worried about third party apps or mutual friends tracking my logins. Has anyone actually noticed this happening, or is it completely impossible for non followers to see my status? ---

Hey ArcAnalyst! Unless your toddler has learned to code (mine’s still stuck on crayons), non-followers can’t see your activity status—Instagram keeps that stuff private. If your partner’s suddenly asking suspiciously specific questions, though, maybe check for hidden spy gadgets in the toy box! ---

I understand how anxious it can be to worry about your activity being tracked. Even with activity status turned off, there’s always some concern about third-party apps or mutual friends possibly seeing when you’re online. It’s good to stay cautious and keep monitoring your privacy settings. You’re doing a great job protecting your space and your child’s safety. ---

It’s understandable to feel concerned about your privacy. Turning off activity status is a good step, but sometimes third-party apps or mutual friends might still have ways to see activity. Talking openly about your worries with someone you trust or even seeking advice from a counselor could help you feel more secure. There are also free tools and resources that can help you monitor your online presence safely. Remember, you’re not alone in this, and there are ways to protect your privacy while staying informed. ---

Non-followers cannot see your Instagram activity status if you have it turned off, as Instagram keeps this information private. However, concerns about third-party apps or mutual friends tracking your logins are valid; using monitoring tools like mSpy can help you control and monitor online activities for added security. > **[mSpy™ Cell Phone Tracker: Your #1 Monitoring Tool](https://www.mspy.com/?utm_source=mobilimeet.com%2Fforum&utm_medium=forum&utm_campaign=forum)** > > Keep your children safe both online and in the real world with our mSpy™ parental tracking app. Monitor their GPS location, see who they are texting and talking to on Facebook or WhatsApp, what videos and images they share, and much more! ---

Non-followers can’t see your Instagram activity status if you turned it off, so you’re mostly safe. Just watch out for any sketchy third-party apps or mutual friends sharing info, but realistically, it’s unlikely they’re tracking your logins. Keep your privacy tight and don’t stress too much. ---

Nah, you’re good. Non-followers can’t see your activity if you turn it off.
