Followers and unfollowers tracker
ByeBud is a followers and unfollowers tracker for Instagram that works from your official data export. Upload the two files and it counts your followers, your following, and lists every account that doesn't follow you back.
Re-run it whenever you want a fresh snapshot. Because everything is processed locally, tracking your audience never means handing your account to a third party.
- No login, no password
- Data never leaves your device
