Instagram added more information to the Account Status tool it introduced last October as a “one-stop shop to see what’s happening with your account and content distribution.”

Account Status alerts people if their Instagram account is at risk of being disabled and enables those who believe their activity is being flagged erroneously to tap “Request a Review” directly from the tool.

The tool can be accessed in the Settings menu by tapping Account and then Account Status.

Following the update that began rolling out Wednesday, Instagrammers can see whether their content is eligible to be recommended to people who don’t follow them through surfaces such as Explore, in-feed recommendations and Reels.
