Accounts reached is the number of unique accounts that have laid eyes on your post, at least one time. Reach differs from impression because it includes multiple view points of your posts by the same accounts in a session. This metric is often estimated by Instagram analytics.

It additionally allows you to change the time span of those measurements (the previous 7 days, 30 days, 90 days, a half year, 1 year, or 2 years) and allows you to channel your posts by design (photograph, video, merry go round post, or purchasing post).
