The process to get your account verified is rather easy, but the platform doesn’t guarantee that everyone will get the blue tick. On the official blog post, Instagram said that they would review every request you send to check whether the profile is authentic and belongs to a notable figure, global brand, entity or celebrity.

So, Instagram has made the verification process much more accessible by adding a “Request Verification” option. However, if you are a regular user like me, then we have got some hope to bag that blue tick and be on the path to fame.

If you have already applied for the verification, then you will receive a notification as soon as your account gets approved. However, if you didn’t get any notification, then you need to wait for 30 days to re-apply for the verification.

The new “Request Verification” feature is right now live on iOS, and Android users need to wait for few more days to get the features on Instagram for Android. So, what’s your opinion on this? Share your views in the comment box below.
