If you want to know if the account Legacy Verified or Meta Verified, you just only need check on message, you can try DM, and you will see if on DM show Full Name then that Meta Verifed, if not Meta Verified there not show name but Username.
Just click their badge and it shows the date. If before March 2023. Then Meta verified
Not all before March 2023 is using Meta Verified.
Other option :
- Report Account (can choose on random account)
- Choose, It’s pretending to be someone else
- Choose A celebrity or public figure
- search for the account you want to check.
look for the account you want to know about, if it’s not there it’s definitely Meta Verified.
You are right , that is the only way… DM showing username or not be able to see profile followers are indicators but not a main one.
I agree. This is the best way to know for sure if they are legacy or meta verified
I am curious if let’s say, in a year from now, Instagram will update the color of the legacy verified accounts. I don’t see how they won’t make some sort of real difference between meta and legacy
They’re not interested in differentiating between legacy and meta. They’ve changed the entire purpose of verification and doesn’t seem like they regret it.
is there a way if there is no Facebook profile?
instagram removed this option too lol
