Which tool answers which question?

Choose the result you need, rather than running every check. Follower count gives account totals; engagement rate puts recent likes and comments in context.

For content review, start with posting frequency for publishing pace or post consistency for how evenly likes are spread. Use the free scan to bring the profile checks together.

Questions

Free Instagram and TikTok tools FAQ

Not answered here? A person replies within 24 hours.

Help center
Are these Instagram and TikTok tools free?

Yes, the profile checks, viewers, downloaders and full scan are free. Choose a single tool when you need one answer, such as follower count or average likes. Use the full scan when you want engagement, posting rhythm, recent posts and an account score together.

Do I need to give you my Instagram or TikTok password?

No, Ganicly never asks for your Instagram or TikTok password. Profile checks use a username, while post downloaders use a public link. You do not connect your account. Growth plans also work from your public username and never act inside your account.

Can the tools check private accounts?

Private accounts return profile counts only, not posts or post-based results. Engagement, posting rhythm and other checks that need recent posts will therefore be empty. The story viewer, profile viewer and downloaders are for public accounts and public content, not private posts.

How accurate are the results?

Results reflect the public profile data and recent posts available at the time of the check. Post-based checks use up to 24 recent posts, sometimes fewer. Check the sample before interpreting a result: pinned posts are excluded from posting rhythm and median engagement calculations, but included in average engagement.

Why are Instagram and TikTok benchmarks separate?

Instagram and TikTok engagement use different denominators. Instagram measures likes and comments per follower. TikTok uses likes and comments per view when at least 3 posts have view counts, otherwise per follower. There is no published TikTok per-follower benchmark, so that fallback cannot be compared with a per-view band.

Can I check Instagram follower count without logging in?

Yes, enter the username to check Instagram follower count without an Instagram login. The result shows followers, following and post count, along with the check time in UTC and whether the data is fresh or cached. It is a single count check, not continuous tracking.

Can I download Instagram stories and Reels without logging in?

Yes, the story viewer and Reel downloader work with public content without an Instagram login. Enter a username for current stories or paste a Reel link for the video file. Stories can be saved individually. The Reel downloader also returns a cover image and any carousel items.

How fresh is a tool result?

Profile results are reused for up to 6 hours, and the result identifies whether the data is fresh or cached. The tools and free scan share the same profile data, so checking the same username in both shows the same numbers during that reuse period.

How does a free check differ from a paid growth plan?

A free check reports public profile stats; a growth plan promotes your profile to an audience you define. Free checks keep no visitor history. A paid plan includes daily follower gains in the dashboard and a weekly email report, with delivery spread across the paid period.
