Top Apps to find Instagram Hashtags

1. Instagram

Instagram has a native search option to look for certain hashtags and find the number of posts. Moreover, when you’re posting any picture, you can always add hashtags and tap on the suggestions related to the keyword. You can include up to 30 hashtags on a post, and up to 10 hashtags on a Story. Although, most people on Instagram use not more than 3-4 hashtags per post. Or, there are tricks to hide hashtags on Instagram. Lastly, don’t use hashtags that are very long, as people hardly follow these hashtags. Get Instagram for ( iOS | Android ) 

2. Hashtagify

Best for generating hashtags with AI using images  If you’re not sure which hashtag to use in your pictures, use this app to generate hashtags automatically.  Simply open the app, slide up to upload a picture from your gallery, give it a few moments, and the app will then show you related hashtags. If you’re thinking it’s a gimmick, I tried it with my bearded face and a coffee mug, and the app was able to predict it really well. So, if you don’t want to manually search for hashtags, this is a good way to save time. The only downside is that you get 5 free predictions, after which you can either donate to use the app or wait for over 66 days to refill your tries. You can also check out the hashtag generator tool for the web. Get Hashtagify for ( iOS | Android ) 

3. HashTags for Instagram

You can find all the hashtag categories on the home screen. You can either scroll through hashtags like popular, nature, social, family, art & photography, food, etc or use the search bar to find relevant hashtags to your post. These hashtags also have subcategories, which you can copy with a tap and paste straight to your Instagram profile.  The app is free and doesn’t contain any ads.

4. Tagify

Best for autogenerating hashtags using keywords  Unlike the previous app, this one lets you mix and match different hashtags by your post description. All you have to do is simply open the app, and describe your post with a maximum of six words. For example, if it’s a picture of your trekking, you can add keywords like travel, mountain, trek, dogs, etc. By doing so, you give a base to the app to generate hashtags related to the keywords. It pre-selects 30 related hashtags for you, but in case you’re not satisfied, you can easily browse for similar hashtags as well within the same tab. Besides that, the copy option works the same as the above app. Get Tagify for Android 

5. In Tags

Best for filtering hashtags according to number of posts  If you want to use hashtags that have less or moderate competition, the generator tab of this app has the exact search filter for you. You have to add six keywords (just like the previous one), although this has an extra slider where you can generate hashtags that only has a certain amount of posts. For example, you can set the slider at 0-30k which shows you hashtags that have posts between that limit. Moreover, you can find the number (posts) beside every hashtag in the search, so you can select only the ones you like. You must note that the search filter is accurate on high post numbers, so try filtering that category more. Get In Tags for Android 

6. Hashtag Inspector

Keeping the usual features aside, the app has a section dedicated to famous Instagram challenges, so you can use that hashtag and take part in the trend to trigger your follower growth. It also shows who started the challenge and renowned people who’ve taken part in it. The app also comes with a $1.5/monthly premium version which gives you access to top hashtags and removes all ads(although I didn’t find any). Get Hashtag Inspector for ( iOS | Android )
