Yeah I'm experiencing this same issue. I keep getting notifications of so-and-so is now "following you" but my followers don't exceed 139. Sometimes it jumps to 140, but then back down to 139. I've had at least 10 new followers in the past 2 weeks and it would be good to have those reflected on my profile. Any help or information you could provide would be great. I tried your suggestion of edit profile, then saving. Didn't do a thing.

I have been experiencing the same, there are some who have followed me but on my profile, it's still stuck with the same number of followers, even the following. I have been following people, and yet it does not reflect on my following count. I could see their posts but couldn't like it esp. if the account is private, though they have accepted me. But when I browsed my IG account on the desktop, it reflects the real number of my followers and following. Why in the app it doesn't? Please help, I have been experiencing this for two weeks already. I have re-installed the app as well. :(
I'm having the same issue, my number is ruck at around 316 and has been for about 3 days. please help because people are following me but it doesn't reflect that.

Maintenance: Frozen Follow Counts15:40 CET/ 06:40 PST

Hey everyone,


We are currently performing some essential maintenance work on our follows service.

This will mean that follower and following counts on your account will be frozen at their current levels for potentially up to a week from today.

You’ll still be able to follow and be followed as normal but these won’t be reflected in the counts on your profile until the maintenance is complete.

This work should ensure that following on SoundCloud remains stable into the future.

We appreciate your patience on this.

Hi,

I seem to have lost around 400 followers in the last couple of weeks and now each time I gain more followers the number seems to be decreasing? I thought I'd leave it for a bit to see if it was a glitch. Is there a problem with fake/spam accounts and is it possible for someone to check my account to see what the situation is?

I have refreshed my account and cleared my cache as suggested above.

Thanks

Why my follower number lost about 40 followers in a second a few months ago, and since then my follower numbers don _t go up, although i steadily get new followers??? Can it be that my account is corrupted?

I THINK that the SERVERS "CAN'T HANDLE" THE FLOWWW of All the stuff that are being put trough.
WE NEED QUANTUM servers which cost billions of dollars to handle our accounts.
I see every time the Following/Followers goes up the profile account slows down with glitches i have 0 followers its still shows 16 and in a day or longer it will show the pictures and then i can clear to reset everything they only give us limited space flowww of material and stuff we can push ITS ALL ABOUT MONEY ONCE I WIN THE LOTTO I WILL CREATE MY OWN SPACE AND MARKETING TO PUSH EveRYONE OUT SO I CAN RULE THAT is THE ECHO FROM THE TOP RANKS HAHAHAHA <its sad but true> think of all the bits of info flowing in and out back to LP and cd stores i feel its time to sell mini stick like Lp/s and cd.

I'm too experiencing the same issue. I keep getting notifications that user is "following you" but my followers don't exceed 307. It is always range in between 298 and 307. I'll get at least 5-10 new followers in the 2 weeks and it would be good to have those reflected on my profile. Any help or information you could provide would be great.

HEY I PAY YOU MONEY EVERY MONTH CAN YOU FIX THIS BULLSHIT? this has been happening for YEARS. since 2013, every few months, my follow count stops. then i complain on here. they give the same answer but guess what happens EVERY SINGLE TIME I POST HERE? the numbers start going up again the next day. it continues to grow for months. until it stops and i complain again. what the hell is going on? i get daily follows. there are hundreds of people that have followed me in the last year and most of them are not listed. i see my notifications, i know when i get followed. people don't follow and unfollow for months on end, and when i complain and it starts working again, that is no coincidence. i understand that sometimes i lose a bunch of followers all at once. i know people have illegitimate accounts and they get deleted. this has NOTHING to do with the problem i continuously have. FIX THIS.

I MY SELF Can't HELP YOU ONLY HAVE AN ACCOUNT THE REST IS INSIDE THE NETWORK THE WEB, THE SERVERS ETC. I DON'T OWN Soundcloud or the servers processing the kilobytes. IT all comes down to money, the representation in the marketing tree, popularity/contract.
This said Soundcloud is practically a free service and lots of info goes trough not just pdf files.
Elites who own the shows get royalty treats.The rest are trying and having some fun at exposure.
IMAGINE ME TAKING ALL THE FANS IN THE FOLLOWINGS IN ONE YEAR =MASSIVE EXPOSURE FOR FREE THEY HAVE THAT COVERED.one thing how many artists are out there pushing the SHOWS the PAID SHOWS that are being paid.PUSH YOUR FANS IN TO FACEBOOK AND SELL if you can.OHH AND WE ALL HAVE FL STUDIO with sounds.LOL
