What "ghost follow requests" means
A ghost follow request is one you’ve sent on Instagram that the other person never approved or denied. They sit in your account forever, contributing to the "following" count without ever turning into a real connection.
How to use the ghost tracker
Drop your Instagram ZIP file in the upload box above. The Unfollowers Tracker scans the `pending_follow_requests.json` file inside the export and lists every account that ghosted you.
