🧠 Overview

The Global Settings section is your central hub for controlling automation behavior across all connected devices. With these tools, you can enhance efficiency, avoid account blocks, maintain system health, and customize automation to your unique goals. This guide explains each feature clearly and simply.


βš™οΈ General Settings

πŸ” Start All Device Delay

Adds a delay (in seconds) between device startups. Helps prevent overload.

Example: 5 seconds = staggered startup.

πŸ“Š Notify if Bot Followed % of Source Followers

Sends a notification after following a large portion of a source.

Example: 80 = Notifies after 80% are followed.

⏱️ Action Tool Timeout

Sets a time limit (in minutes) for how long a tool can run before stopping or switching.

πŸ”„ Reboot Device

Schedules daily reboot using 24-hour format. Set to None to disable.

πŸ” Login Retry Limit per Day

Caps the number of login attempts to prevent account bans.

πŸ“ˆ Growth Since Days

Shows growth metrics over a custom timeframe.

Example: 30 = Past 30 days.

πŸ–ΌοΈ Media Path for Post Scheduling

Sets the media folder path (must end in /) for scheduled posts.

πŸ“‚ Use Rescan Media App

Ensures the bot re-scans device folders for newly added media.

  • Tip: Stay within safe ranges to avoid Instagram restrictions.

🧹 Source Management

πŸ—‘οΈ Enable Delete Source

Deletes sources automatically when conditions are met.

πŸ”§ Action-Based Source Deletion

  • Enable Delete Source for Follow Action
  • Enable Delete Source for Likes Action
  • Enable Delete Source for Story View

⚠️ Trigger Conditions

  • Delete Source if Account has Verified Checkmark – When visiting an account, the bot will delete the source if it detects a verified badge.

  • Delete Source if Account Does Not Exist – Automatically removes the source if the account is no longer available or was deleted.

  • Delete Source if Bot Followed a Percentage of Users – Deletes the source once the bot has followed the specified percentage of users (e.g., 90%).

βŒ› Scrolling & Timeout

🧭 Enable Scrolling Page Timeout

Sets timeout (in minutes) before switching to a new source.

Applies to:

  • Enable Scrolling Followers Page Time out (Follow)
  • Enable Scrolling Followings Page (Unfollow)
  • Enable Scrolling Followers Page (Story Viewing)

✈️ Flight Mode Settings

πŸ“‘ Enable Flight Mode Reset

Simulates airplane mode to change IP or reset the network.

  • Why it’s used:
    • This simulates a network reset, giving the device a new IP address from the mobile network after Flight Mode is turned off.
    • Helps reduce detection risk when managing multiple accounts (since constant switching without changing IP can trigger security checks or bans).
    • Creates periodic IP changes during sessions, not just when switching accounts.
    • Adds another layer of human-like behavior and reduces footprints during long automation runs.

Trigger:

βœ… Enable Flight Mode Every Account Switch

  • What it does:

    Each time the system or app switches from one account to another, it automatically turns on Flight Mode (Airplane Mode) for a short duration and then turns it off.

  • Typical Behavior:

    • Account A finishes its tasks β†’ Enable Flight Mode β†’ Wait (e.g., 10–20 seconds) β†’ Disable Flight Mode β†’ Switch to Account B.

βœ… Enable Flight Mode On a Timer

  • What it does:

    The app automatically toggles Flight Mode at specific time intervals (e.g., every 30 minutes, every 2 hours).

⚠ Important:

Both triggers are used to avoid being flagged or banned for multi-account automation by mimicking natural network changes.


🎲 Randomize Action Tool

By default, the Action Tool follows a set order when performing tasks (e.g., Follow β†’ Unfollow β†’ Like β†’ Story View).

When you enable Randomize Action, this fixed order is shuffled every time the tool runs.

Example:

  • Default order: Follow β†’ Unfollow β†’ Like β†’ Story View
  • With Randomize Action enabled:
    • Run 1: Like β†’ Story View β†’ Follow β†’ Unfollow
    • Run 2: Story View β†’ Follow β†’ Like β†’ Unfollow

This makes your actions look more natural and reduces the risk of detection by social platforms.

πŸ”€ Enable Random Letters Search When Scrolling Followers

When enabled, the bot will randomly type letters (A–Z) into the followers’ search bar while scrolling. This loads smaller user batches instead of endlessly scrolling, making the process look more natural, reducing detection risk, and speeding up actions.

πŸ”Ž Only Use Instagram Search Box

When enabled, the bot will find accounts through the Instagram search bar instead of going directly to the account, making actions look more natural and reducing detection risk.
