Is InstaLens – Instagram Follower Tracker safe?

Medium risk

InstaLens can record Instagram page sessions and sends Instagram profile report data to its servers.

On Instagram pages, InstaLens loads analytics settings from analytics.profabric.tech and can enable rrweb session replay that records page events, URLs, and masked form input events. Its expected report flow also collects follower and following profile records from Instagram and sends report data, profile IDs, and profile images to instalens.io.
