Here’s my take on this. The accuracy of these tools really depends on the method being used and the user’s own Instagram habits. They aren’t just “guesses,” but they aren’t foolproof either.

On one hand, a tool can be quite accurate if it’s analyzing data the user has voluntarily shared. This includes location tags on their posts, stories, or information in their bio. Some services also generate a tracking link, and if the user clicks it, their IP address can reveal a general location, like their city or region.

On the other hand, their effectiveness is limited. Instagram strips identifying metadata from uploaded photos, so that’s not a viable method. Plus, an IP address location can be imprecise or completely misled by a VPN. If a user has a private account and doesn’t use location features, these tools have very little data to analyze.
