So here we have some tricks to fix this annoying Instagram error. 1. Network Connectivity The most possible reason for this error is caused by network disconnection. Therefore, on seeing the error, the first thing you should do is to check your network connection.
Check whether your Wi-Fi/mobile network is connected. Even if there is network connected, the Instagram error still could happen if the network signal is weak. So open a page in the browser, if the page loads slowly, it indicates a weak network signal. Therefore you might use Instagram later when the network signal is strong or switch between cellular data and Wi-Fi data to see if the other one works better. Instagram official help center also gives two possible explanations for this loading difficulty error. Mobile data amount limitation: if you tend to encounter with the problem at the end of each month, the feed error is probably caused by your mobile carrier limiting your mobile data after a certain amount of data usage in a month. Contact your mobile carrier for the problem. Overloaded mobile network connection: you may come across the error when many people try to use a mobile network simultaneously, such as in a concert or baseball game.
2. Restart Your Phone If "Couldn't Refresh Feed" error keeps coming up after the above tricks, you may restart your phone and see if it could fix the problem. It may not work for everyone, but it worth a try. 3. Instagram App Update or Re-installation Outdated version of Instagram app may have bugs that cause the refreshing feed difficulty.
