How It Works

1. Upload a Picture

Choose a picture containing the face you want to search for. You do not need the person's name or Instagram username.

2. We Compare Faces on Instagram

Face2social compares the uploaded face with visible Instagram photos.

3. Review Possible Matches

See possible Instagram accounts with confidence indicators such as Likely match before deciding whether to reveal the results.

Works with Screenshots and Cropped Pictures

You can use a screenshot or cropped picture to find an Instagram account, provided the face remains clear enough for comparison.

The uploaded picture does not need to be identical to an image on Instagram. Face2social compares facial characteristics, which may help find the same person when:

— The screenshot comes from a video or another social network
— Unnecessary background has been cropped out
— The Instagram account uses a different picture
— The person's clothing, pose, or surroundings have changed
— The picture has been resized or lightly edited

Cropping can improve the search when it makes the face larger and easier to see. However, excessive enlargement, low resolution, strong filters, motion blur, or objects covering the face may reduce the quality of the results.

For the clearest comparison, use a picture with one visible face and keep the main facial features unobstructed.

What We Can't Find

— A guaranteed match for every picture. A result may not be found if the face is unclear or there are no suitable visible Instagram photos.
— 100% certain identification. Results are possible matches, not proof of identity. Confidence indicators help you assess each result.
— Face2social is unavailable in locations restricted under its Terms because of privacy and biometric-data laws.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, the preview is free. You can upload a picture and see whether possible Instagram matches were found before paying. A paid plan is required to reveal the available accounts and profile links.

Yes. Screenshots and cropped pictures can work when the face remains clear, sufficiently large, and unobstructed. The exact same picture does not need to appear on Instagram because Face2social compares facial characteristics across different images.

No. Face2social compares facial characteristics rather than requiring an identical image. It may find the same person in a different Instagram picture.
