Element is not clickable at location about instapy

@razvanilin I also got this error a few times already... I think this is due to the footer bar in the Instagram webpage :🙁
We'll see if we can fix this.

Thank you for reporting!

At first I thought it was because I was using a business account. I then reverted back to personal account and it still happens. So business accounts are not causing this.

@razvanilin Thank you, I really think it's the footer bar in Instagram, since Selenium just moves to the element and clicks the mentioned element.

yes I'm seeing the same

selenium.common.exceptions.WebDriverException: Message: unknown error: Element ... is not clickable at point (684, 678). Other element would receive the click:

Update: it seems if you manually click that footer at the beginning to dismiss it, the script continues successfully.

I tried that in the beginning but it didn't work for me. What finally worked is to switch my account back to business account.
