**Short answer: it depends which InstaRadar you mean. On 13 November 2026, instaradar.app showed a page saying "InstaRadar is temporarily unavailable". instaradar.io, a different site with the same name, was up and selling plans.** If you came here because your tracker stopped loading, the first section tells you how to manage the subscription. The rest compares InstaRadar with **Klupt**, our own tool.

*How we compared:* we opened instaradar.app and instaradar.io on 13 November 2026, read instaradar.io's homepage, FAQ and plans page, and compared them with our own product. Prices are US prices on that day.

## Is InstaRadar down?

Two websites use the InstaRadar name, and on 13 November 2026 they were in very different states:

| | instaradar.app | instaradar.io |
|---|---|---|
| **Status on 13 Nov 2026** | ❌ "InstaRadar is temporarily unavailable" | ✅ Working |
| **What the page says** | Customers will be updated by email; link to a customer portal to manage or cancel | Sign up, choose a plan, then search |
| **Plans for sale** | None shown | Weekly, quarterly and lifetime |

We couldn't find anything on either site that links the two, so treat them as separate services.

### If you paid for InstaRadar on instaradar.app

1. Open instaradar.app. The "temporarily unavailable" page has a **Customer Portal** link to manage or cancel your subscription.
2. If that doesn't work, write to the support address shown on that page.
3. Still being charged for a service that doesn't load? Cancel the recurring payment from your card or bank app.

Then, if you still want to see who someone recently followed, you can [try Klupt for free](https://klupt.io/) with no account.

## What instaradar.io does

instaradar.io is a dashboard for public Instagram profiles. After you sign up and pick a plan, you add a username and it shows followers, following, posts and stories, plus analytics (follower growth, engagement, likes and comments ratios), CSV and PDF exports, and scheduled PDF reports by email. It says it keeps 360+ days of statistics. It doesn't ask for your Instagram password.

The part that matters for recent follows is in its own FAQ:

- *"Results depend on what Instagram exposes and on how long the account has been monitored, so the view may not be complete or immediate."*
- *"Ongoing monitoring improves as publicly visible changes are detected over time."*
- Its homepage demo adds: *"New accounts may show limited stats. The longer an account is tracked, the more data becomes available."*

In other words, InstaRadar mostly finds new follows by **watching an account over time**. That's a fair method, and it's what most trackers switched to after **9 September 2026**, when Instagram changed how follow lists are served and their order stopped showing who came last. [What changed in September 2026](https://klupt.io/blog/instagram-following-not-in-chronological-order).

## How Klupt is different

Klupt still shows **real chronological order, newest first, from your very first search**, on both tabs: who they followed and who followed them. You don't have to wait for days of monitoring to see who's new. Instagram doesn't share the date of each follow, so Klupt shows the order, never invented dates.

Profiles you track are then re-checked **about every hour**, and Klupt sends you a **Telegram message** when they follow someone new.

## Side by side

| | InstaRadar (instaradar.io) | Klupt |
|---|---|---|
| **Newest follows on the first search** | Builds up as changes are detected over time | ✅ Newest first right away |
| **Newest followers on the first search** | Builds up over time | ✅ Newest first, in a Followers tab |
| **Search before signing up** | ❌ Sign up and choose a plan first | ✅ Free check, no account |
| **Alerts for new follows** | "Real-time updates" in your dashboard | Telegram messages, about every hour |
| **Girls/guys breakdown** | Not offered | ✅ |
| **Story viewer** | ✅ Plus a post viewer | ✅ [Story viewer](https://klupt.io/stories) |
| **Analytics and exports** | ✅ Growth, engagement, CSV/PDF, scheduled reports | Follower export tool only |
| **Apps** | Web | Web, iPhone app, Telegram bot, Chrome extension |
| **Private accounts** | No | Web: no. Extension: ones you already follow |
| **Instagram password needed** | No | No |
| **Price (US, 13 Nov 2026)** | Premium $10/wk or $7/wk billed quarterly; Starter (2 accounts) $8/wk or $5.60/wk quarterly; Lifetime $99 | $8.99/wk or $29.99/yr; one-profile unlock $1.99 ($0.99 in many countries) |

## Where InstaRadar is stronger

- **Analytics.** Engagement rates, growth charts and exportable reports are useful if you manage or study accounts.
- **A one-time Lifetime plan** at $99, if you'd rather not have a subscription.
- **Long history** once an account has been tracked for a while.

## Where Klupt is stronger

- **Answers on day one.** The newest follows and followers are at the top on your first search, not after weeks of monitoring.
- **Try before you pay.** The free check works without an account; InstaRadar asks you to sign up and pick a plan first.
- **Cheaper for a week or a year.** $8.99 for a week against $10, and $29.99 for a whole year.
- **You get told.** A Telegram message for each new follow. [How alerts work](https://klupt.io/blog/telegram-notifications-instagram-tracker).
- **More ways to use it**: the [iPhone app](https://klupt.io/iphone-app), the [@kluptbot](https://t.me/kluptbot?start=web_blog) Telegram bot, and the free [Katch the Ick](https://klupt.io/katch-the-ick) extension for private accounts you already follow.

## A note on reviews

The plans page on instaradar.io and the homepage of RecentFollow (recentfollow.com) showed the **same customer reviews**, with the same names and nearly the same words, when we checked on 13 November 2026. instaradar.io's footer tagline is also word for word the one FollowSpy uses. That doesn't tell you whether the tool works, but it's a reason to judge any of these sites by a free test, not by its testimonials. Our comparisons: [RecentFollow vs Klupt](https://klupt.io/blog/recentfollow-vs-klupt) and [FollowSpy vs Klupt](https://klupt.io/blog/followspy-vs-klupt).

## How to see who someone recently followed with Klupt

1. Go to [klupt.io](https://klupt.io/) and type their **public** username. No Instagram account needed.
2. Open the **Following** tab: their most recent follows are at the top. The **Followers** tab shows who followed them most recently.
3. To be told next time, track the profile and connect Telegram.

## The bottom line

If your InstaRadar stopped working, it's probably instaradar.app, which was "temporarily unavailable" on 13 November 2026; use its customer portal to manage your subscription. instaradar.io is a working analytics dashboard that builds its picture over time. If what you want is **who they followed lately**, right now, Klupt shows it newest first from the first search.
