The statement released states thus

Hence, after June 1, 2016, you would see the below changes:

1. No more Copy Followers on Instagram: None of the apps including Crowdfire can provide this feature for Instagram users anymore.

2. Paid only Instagram integration: Free users will now be able to access Instagram features in view-only mode i.e they will not be able to perform any actions on Instagram through the Crowdfire app. Users on the Pluto, Earth, Neptune and Jupiter plans will be able to use our Instagram integration fully and perform all actions. So if you aren’t an upgraded user then we request you to upgrade right away before the June 1st deadline.

To sum things up, post June 1, 2016 paying Crowdfire customers would be able to access the following features while free users, although able to view all Instagram features from within the app, will not be able to perform any action.

The features free users will not be able to use include Publish (schedule and get reminded to post your Instagram images at the right time.), Non Followers, Fan, Recent Followers, Recent Unfollowers, All Following (web only, coming soon to mobile), Friend Check and Admirers (mobile only, coming soon to web)

Instagram urges all herusers to upgrade to the paid plans before June 1, 2016 to continue making the best use of Instagram for your business.
