On this tab you can update your accounts' username, name, website, bio and avatar. TO update multiple accounts you can specify a selection of new values and check multiple accounts, the details will be used in sequence.
If the requested username is in use, you can specify that InstaDub is to use a suggested username from instagram, for this check the Similar Account Suggest
The accounts tab allows you to view all your accounts and create Verify Login and Verify Profile actions
This action will verify if the action can log in. If the account cannot login, it could be it is banned, the proxy doesn't work, your details are wrong or perhaps you are having network difficults
This will check if the public profile of your account is viewable. Usually if this check fails your account is banned (or you have given the wrong details)
Check this box if you want to run the above Verify actions WITHOUT the account proxy, it will use the local proxy instead and can help indicate if the proxy of the account is the reason for failed logins
The modules allows you to scrape image via the usual search methods and download the images to the specified save images directory
Specify a minimum and maximum value, after actioning an item the action will pause for a random amount between the specified minimum and maximum values.
The number of items to process within the action.
If you are repeating your action, you may not want to action on the the same number of items each action (avoiding footprints, so you can fluctuate the number of items to perform. If you specify 100 Max Actions and a Fluctuate value of 10. Then your action will random perform 90-110 items (100 +/- 10)
InstaDUB can scrape all your messages and conversions from your accounts' inboxes and display them in an easy to view list.
Above you can see all the received messages for the selected accounts. Highlight is the <image> token, this is where a user has sent us a Direct Share Image. To view the image, you can highlight the image and click the VIEW IMAGE button, or double click the row to open that message in the Inbox Reply view, and click the view image link.
When a user sends you a message, if they are not in your authorised to send messages list, their message is in "pending". This is a different list to your received messages list. However, InstaDUB can still scrape this list, check the SCRAPE PENDING box and InstaDUB will scrape messages and pending messages. The pending messages will appear in the same list, but the pending column will be checked. Pending messages can be accepted manually by loading the pending message and clicking the accept link. Or Instadub can accept all pending messages when it scrapes, check the AUTO ACCEPT ALL PENDING link for this option.
The direct share images module is very similar to the direct message module. The only difference is that rather than send a text message to the user, you send an image.
You can create a search to find users to share your images to, or provide a list of users (via a file, enter the filepath one user line line - IDs preferred).
Specify a minimum and maximum value, after actioning an item the action will pause for a random amount between the specified minimum and maximum values.
Brand new feature to InstaDUB version3, the "react" module. This modules allows you to react to users who react with your account or posts. Someone "followed" your account, you can react by following them back, sending a direct message, liking / commenting their posts or posting an image based on the users avatar or recently posted images in a collage. Likewise, if someone likes or comments on one of your images you can react to them.
From the screen above, you can specify whether you want to react to follows, likes and comments. Then click the Setup button to specify just how you would like to react. Don't forget to specify how often to check for new reactions to your account / media. Depending on how much traffic your account gets, or how often you want to react you may want to set this value up or down
InstaDub allows you to upload video to Instgram. Due to the limits on how the videos can be uploaded, Instadub can help you out by cutting the video into chunks and linking them in the captions, watermarking the video with your logo / website URL and even use a frame from the video as your cover image.
To specify the videos to upload you enter a directory containing your videos, or enter the file path of a meta file that will specify the file paths and meta values for each video.
The scraper tab allows you to perform any search / scrape you can think of and save the results to your save directory, accessed via HELP > SAVED DATA
Use this function to load in a list of profile URLs and have InstaDUB scrape the emails including in the accounts' bio. This will happen via the instagram.com website, so to use proxies for this, to avoid getting an IP ban, click the proxies button and specify the proxies to use.
The number of threads can be set, allowing you to scrape more pages at once. Do be aware, more at once isn't always the best way, as if you don't use enough proxies to allow for the thread, you could get a block for doing too much too quick.
A promo module to help you get your Instagram promotions underway. The promo module will create standard actions to promote your account: follow, like and comments (optional). The default values will be chosen for you - everything will be chosen for you - just enter your niche / keywords and be underway. All the actions created are what you can create in the app yourself, so once you have got to grips with the app, you can customise your actions to be more suited to your account, your target audience and get even better results
Enter the keywords related to your account. These will be used in hash tag searches to find accounts / medias to action on.
A module that allows you to track what you account has been doing. Simply select your account and how often you want to scrape your stats (24 hours is probably the value you want - don't over do it). The most recent stats will be viewable in the accounts control, but clicking the View Stats button you will see all stats ever scraped for the account allowing you to track the followers / followings of your account along with posts made, actions performed in the previous 24 hours before the stats were scraped and much more. For those of you who want to do more stats analysis the stats can all be exported to CSV (or a date defined section of) for importing into any spreadsheet tool of your choice (excel, calc etc)
