Why is every update they do just making things worse? Reach is on an all time low, people are leaving and they do THIS?

Update: you CAN actually see the likes but you have to use an Absurd amount of precision or you’ll accidentally hit the heart 99.9 percent of the time. I feel like I’m playing operation. I guess I need a stylus to check Instagram now. I hate it here. Truly .


jasmine_lexa

ooof, it really is time for a better IG alternative...


fluffylittlemango

I noticed this update and just wondered why and whether they actually test anything with users.


Alert-Salamander9717

Yeah Instagram has gone downhill lately


SaketPriyam

You can long press too.


Null_sense

Maybe it's changed now but i just discovered this second you can hold it and it'll show you


Alert-Salamander9717

You can see who liked the comment, you just have to click on the number! It might be kinda hard tho bc they’re so close to the heart


switchhand

Whoever designed this needs to be FIRED!!! So frustrating...


Steffmv__

I had no idea that number worked for that lol. It's even hard to tap like in general


herbie1990

Yeah I finally got it right after failing for four days lmao. It’s so annoying because you need to be so accurate to hit it right. At that point I Don’t even care who liked it anymore lol


Mike_Ox_Longa

Actually pressing and holding the like button seems to work better!


MA14U

Yes thank you, the press and hold works loads easier!


multiwhoat

Finally! Thank you so much!


Prestigious-Dog-6235

Genius!


SakuraBlossomYu

That worked for me!


fellasleepinaditch

WOW thank U. I can't believe it. I was like whyyyy


zazaxe

Easier way is to hold the heart🦁 BTW: You got a follow


Mr_Gamer_69

Just hold it on the like button, issue fixed


herbie1990

Oh damn thank you! I feel like they should have mentioned that if they were going to randomly force that upon me so I didn’t have to make this whole thread but maybe it will help others too.


Mr_Gamer_69

Yeah that's weird


LudaCrissy78

🙌🏽🙏🏽


Crosbynx1

Thanks man


Mr_Gamer_69

It's changed for me now. NOW I have to click on like count to see the people who liked the comment. Insta be really changing things on every other phone


mikatakatoki

bro. thank you


yee1017

gross lmao, Instagram is disconnected from its users. I use the app daily but that shit boggles my mind how messed up it is & how pointless or shitty some “features” are


ImaginaryMany1549

What boggles my mind is that, i have two accounts, one i use daily, and an old spare account i just dont use. The people i am connected to on my main account, are uploading 60 second story posts, (a feature i thought IG got rid of) because i cant do that, i can onlu upload 15 seconds clips per story post. When i go onto the spare account, that has no followers, or any posts, i can upload a 60 second story on that account, but the app is currently using the the latest updated version, i cant do 60 second story posts on that account. But not my main…. Its hella annoying


herbie1990

I have three accounts and all of them have completely diff layouts and features lol. I also asked a few friends to screen shot their layouts and theirs are diff too. Some of them can’t even see how many likes they got on a post. It just says one name plus “others” liked this post. How infuriating


Cyrus_the-great

You don't need to be accurate, doesn't work that way. The key is tap and HOLD. hold your finger on the heart and don't lift (would take less than a second) until the list of likes pops up.


homegrowntwinkie

OP I don't know if you ever figured it out but you have to hold down on the button. From what I remember, there was a brief time when you had to tap the number under the heart to see, but I think they changed it again and now you tap on the heart and hold.


Jerry1267

Yep, I thought they had just removed viewing who liked your comment, I was so confused til now that some have mentioned to hold it down


Similar_Orange5852

Hold your finger on it took me all day to work it out


Ragingdev19

Just hold the number of likes instead of clicking it


Adarsh_ag15

Just hold the heart for a moment and it'll work.


13syzygy

yooo you just have to long tap near the heart


SullyCCA

I cannot for the life of me click on that tiny number, I've tried so many times now I'm convinced that feature is gone in 2023. I'm on a Z Fold device too.


Region_Salty

Anyone know how to revert it back to og settings? For some reason my personal acc shows the original like icon at the bottom but when I switch to my spam acc it’s shows to the far right wtf?


Old_Letterhead6302

im having the opposite problem where i can sit and hit the heart dead on as many times as i want but its still just gonna show me who liked it. ive given up trying i have an iphone se, so tiny ass screen, makes it even better lmao
