## Changelog

### 1.0.4 — 2026-11-02

- **The input description now says what to do about every row that was not charged.** It names the next step for each row status, for the Apify free plan's daily allowance (when to come back, or a paid plan), and for a run that stopped early (which setting to raise).
- Nothing changes about the price, the input fields, the output columns or which rows are charged.

### 1.0.3 — 2026-11-01

- **A failed internal bookkeeping write now reads in plain words in the run log.** Nothing changes about what is delivered, which rows are charged, the price, the input fields or the output columns.

### 1.0.2 — 2026-10-29

- **On the Apify free plan, the daily-allowance row says when to come back and what unlocks the rest now.** The row for accounts held by the free plan's daily allowance is now marked `retryable: true` and carries `retryAfter` (the exact time the allowance reopens) and `reason: "free_plan_allowance"`, also on the run summary row and the OUTPUT record. It says how many of the accounts you named were held, to stop a batch of runs until that time, and names Bronze (Apify's Starter plan) and its price per 1,000 accounts. The run page says the same.
- Nothing changes about the price, the allowance or which rows are charged.

### 1.0.1 — 2026-10-26

- **First release.** Paste Instagram handles, @handles, profile links or numeric account ids and get one row per account from Instagram's own "About this account" panel: the country the account is based in, the month and year it joined (as Instagram words it, plus a `YYYY-MM` field and the age in whole months), whether it is verified or private, and how many times it changed its username.
- Charged per account delivered. An account that does not exist, an account whose panel names no country and no join date, a value that is not an account and an account that could not be read are uncharged rows that say why. The same account named twice in one run is read once and charged once.
- A bare Start with no account looks up three well-known brand accounts as a sample, at no result fee.
- Also answers web requests (Standby): up to 25 accounts in one request, charged exactly as a run.
