I have been using Instagram automation for over 2 years now and I have a very ood personal exerince with it. I am a business woman and I needed to mainatin a good and powerful Instagram acccount but I did not have the time to devoet to managing an accout that's why I chose to automate all my Instgaram activities and lean on Instazood automation tool to manage my account and automated all its inetaractions and posting and sending DMs.
I wonder why people think such servies are bad. I believe there are some spmmy ones but there are also very useful ones like the one I use. So why would people hate such tools? What are your experiences?

A short, practical addendum: both sides in this thread have valid points. is right that automation can save a small business many hours; is also right that over-reliance on aggressive bots turns feeds into noise and eventually hurts real engagement. Platforms and experienced marketers now emphasize using automation to scale trustworthy work (scheduling, inbox flows, reporting) — not to mimic a human at scale. (blog.hootsuite.com)

Important technical/legal split: use tools that operate through Meta/Instagram’s official APIs (Messenger API for Instagram, Instagram Graph API) or first‑party UIs. These are the channels designed for automated inbox flows and publishing; browser bots, credential-sharing services, or mass follow/like/comment engines are treated as inauthentic and can trigger restrictions.

Quick checklist before you automate anything:

  • Use a Business or Creator account and connect via Facebook/Meta login (not by giving your password).
  • Prefer first‑party tools (Meta Business Suite) or vendors that explicitly document use of the Graph/Messenger APIs.
  • Avoid auto follow/unfollow, blanket likes, or identical mass DMs — those are flagged as spam.
  • Throttle message volume and rotate templates; keep human review in the loop for replies and campaign content.
  • Run any new automation on a small test account or segment and monitor reach, DMs, and follower quality for 2–4 weeks.

Closing note: automation is a tool, not a shortcut to audience building. When chosen and configured correctly it buys time and improves response times; when misused it risks penalties and damages brand trust. Audit any vendor’s claim of “bot-driven growth,” require API proof, and combine automation with deliberate, manual community management. (blog.hootsuite.com)

To me this is a dumb idea. At first it may work but as more install this, AIGrow and alternatives the system is just one of bots and few real people.

The economy of the system falls as there are fewer and fewer posts and follows by people. I won't call it hate, but foolish.
