If your Instagram account is temporarily locked, it might happen when your account doesn't follow the rules and guidelines of Instagram.

Yes, there are some community standards for Instagram, and if your account settings are not as expected according to the guidelines, then whenever you try to log in, you will get the message, “Your Instagram account is temporarily locked.” It can also happen if you log in with multiple attempts, so it will automatically detect your actions.

You can resolve the issue by simply following these steps:

There is an expiry time limitation for the lockout that automatically expires after a certain period, so first you need to wait for the lockout period to expire.

Another way to resolve the issue is resetting your password.

For this, follow these simple steps:

Step 1. Open your Instagram app.

Step 2. Click on “forgot password.”

Step 3. Enter your new password.

Step 4. Follow the instructions and reset it.

Verify the personal details; ensure that your email address and your registered number are up-to-date.

Contact the Instagram Help Center; if the issue still persists, then you can reach out to the Instagram Help Center.

For this, follow these steps:

Step 1. Click on “Instagram Help Center.”

Step 2. Click on “Report an issue.”

Step 3. Explain your issue.

Step 4. Get the solution.

Try these simple steps and resolve the issue.
