Key takeaway: These actions cause the majority of blocks. The biggest fail — trying to register a new account from a phone that is already banned.

Pure never tells you why you got banned. But from our experience the same patterns keep repeating. Here are 5 things the Pure bot will nuke your account for without a second thought.

Based on Pure's official position and the practice of the PureHelper unban service. Current as of 2026.

1. Weird photos

The AI does not understand context. If the photo has your friend in it, the image quality is terrible, or you are in a too-revealing top — the bot might trigger and take down your profile.

2. Speedrunning after registration

Just downloaded the app and started firing off messages at machine gun speed? Congrats, the behavioral analyzer (behavioral biometrics) has flagged you as a spam bot.

3. Playing with VPN

Turned on VPN to check Instagram and forgot to turn it off before opening Pure? That is a red flag for their security. More on why VPN is evil for Pure.

4. Registering after a ban

The dumbest mistake. If you got banned, your phone (SSAID on Android, IDFA on iOS) is already blacklisted. A new account will last maybe 5 minutes.

5. Sketchy APKs and clones

Decided to be clever and downloaded a mod? The system instantly spots the crooked certificate signature. That is an instant ban. Read about clones here.
