Knowing what other people like and dislike about Instagram can be helpful and instructive in many situations. If certain things are popular, exploring those topics can influence your future activities and interests. Instagram used to have a stream where you could see everything your friends liked and commented on. However, it has been removed in favor of the Activity tab, where you can only see what others are doing and saying regarding your own posts. So how do you get likes on Instagram today?

THE SHORT ANSWER
To see liked posts on Instagram, you need to press other in the like score below a post. There you can see everyone who liked that post.
KEY SECTIONS
How to view your uploaded posts on Instagram
Instagram allows you to see the last 300 posts you liked. These are posts that you double-tap or press the heart button below.
To see the posts you liked in the past, go to your Instagram profile and hit the Menu (≡) button at the top right. Type Your activity from the subsequent pop-up menu.

How to view someone else’s uploaded posts on Instagram
You can not view anyone else’s entire like history on Instagram. You can see when friends post and interact with your posts in the Activities tab (heart-shaped button) on the home screen. However, you will not receive alerts when they like others’ posts.
If you want to see what someone else liked, you have to manually go to the post in question and see if that person liked it. Exploring an individual post’s holding activity is the only way to determine if someone liked it.

You have to go to the post yourself and type other to see everyone who liked it. The ‘next activity’ stream no longer exists.
