What is QUIC Protocol?
With the release of InstaFly v11.4, one of the significant new features introduced is the QUIC protocol. In this blog post, we aim to explain what the QUIC protocol is and its purpose.
What is the QUIC Protocol?
The QUIC protocol is a communication protocol developed by Google, designed to make the connection between the user and the server more secure and faster. Platforms like Instagram use this protocol for similar purposes.
QUIC Protocol in Instagram
Since version 330, Instagram has started supporting the QUIC protocol alongside the standard access protocol. On supported devices, communication with Instagram is established through the QUIC protocol instead of HTTP/1.1.
Importance of the QUIC Protocol in InstaFly
Instagram tracks every user action, logs the features of the connected device, and analyzes all this data. If any request falls outside its algorithm, Instagram blocks it. The QUIC protocol was necessary to fully comply with Instagram's algorithms. Therefore, we included the QUIC protocol in InstaFly v11.4.
Our tests showed that with the QUIC protocol, the operation limits were significantly higher. When the QUIC protocol was not used, the operation limits were exhausted much earlier. For this reason, we recommend using the QUIC protocol.
Activating the QUIC Protocol
To activate the QUIC protocol in InstaFly v11.4, simply check the QUIC protocol box in the bottom right corner. However, before enabling the QUIC protocol, follow these steps:
- Right-click on your account in the Logged-in Accounts section and select "Change Device ID."
- Then, log in with your username and password from the Add New Account section.
Important Considerations
- Always select "Change Device ID" before logging in with the QUIC protocol.
- You cannot use HTTP(s) proxies with the QUIC protocol. You must use proxies that support the QUIC protocol. If you use proxies, ensure they support the QUIC protocol. Otherwise, your connection will fail and you will encounter errors.
With this new feature in InstaFly v11.4, you can achieve higher operation limits on Instagram and operate in full compliance with its algorithms. Activate the QUIC protocol to take advantage of these benefits.
