That's a feature Instagram (Meta) provides, but it relies heavily on both your permissions and the other person's privacy settings. You can't just type a number into a search bar, but you can sync your contacts. Here's the step-by-step process on the Instagram mobile app: 1. Go to your Profile (tap your photo in the bottom right). 2. Tap the three lines (☰) in the top right corner to open the menu. 3. Go to 'Settings and privacy' > 'Account Center' (it’s a Meta thing now). 4. Under 'Account settings', look for 'Your information and permissions' or 'Upload contacts'. 5. Find the option to 'Connect contacts' or 'Sync contacts'. Turn this feature ON. Instagram will now regularly upload your phone's contact list and suggest people who have used that same phone number to register or link to their Instagram account. If they have set their profile to NOT be found via phone number, you still won't see them.

That's a super common issue when reading Myanmar language content online! Zawgyi is a very popular, non-standard font encoding, and Unicode is the international standard. Many stories on Wattpad are written in Zawgyi, but if your phone or computer is set to Unicode (which is becoming the standard), the text looks like gibberish boxes or weird characters. Unfortunately, Wattpad itself doesn't have a built-in "Convert to Unicode" feature because the text is stored as whatever the writer typed. The key is to use an external tool: 1. Copy the Text: Copy the Zawgyi text directly from the Wattpad story chapter. You might have to copy it in sections. 2. Use a Converter: Paste the copied text into a reliable online converter tool. There are several great ones specifically designed for Myanmar languages. A very well-known and reliable one is Rabbit Converter. You paste the Zawgyi text, click convert, and it will output the correct Unicode text. 3. Read the Converted Text: You can now read the converted Unicode text directly from the converter page or paste it into a simple text app on your phone. It's a small hassle, but necessary until all writers switch to Unicode! You can often find these converters by searching for "Zawgyi Unicode Converter" and saving the link for quick access.
