How to report an error

Email [email protected] with "Correction" in the subject line. Include:

You don't need to give your name, and we'll never ask for your Instagram login.

What happens next

  1. We check it. An editor reviews the report against official sources and the current app. If it involves a hashtag, we check the tag in-app.
  2. We fix it. If we got it wrong, we correct the page and update its "last updated" date. For hashtag issues, we also update the niche page's pools and our restricted and spam list, so the generator stops suggesting that tag.
  3. We log it. Substantive corrections are listed below. That means anything that changed the meaning of a page, such as a wrong limit, a broken step or a mislabeled tag. Typos and formatting fixes aren't logged.
  4. We reply if you asked us to, once the page has been reviewed. Sometimes the answer is that the page was right. For example, a feature may not have reached your account yet. In that case we'll say so, and may add a note to the page.

How we research and review content in the first place is explained in our editorial policy and methodology.
