Instagramis one of the most popular ways to share photos and videos online and has been for many years now. Users can post content in the form of stories, reels, and more, and interact with the range of content that’s available onthe app.
If you’re ever curious about what you’ve double-tapped throughout your time on the platform, Instagram allows you to easily view what you’ve liked via your profile page.
You may have also wondered whether it’s possible to see what your friends or accounts you’re following have liked.
No, you can’t see what other people have liked on Instagram.Previously, there was a ‘following’ activity tab that gave users updates about what people they followed were interacting with on the app, including posts they liked and commented on.

You are, however, able to click on the likes beneath a photo to see a list of people who have liked it, as long as that option has been made available by the original poster, so this can be one way to see whether someone you know has liked a particular image.
