No one can guarantee you won't be spotted nor banned for using this package. Furthermore, this package is missing some headers / requests that might lead IG to find you're breaking their ToS. However, if you don't use this package to do malicious activities, your account will probably be fine.

So why don't u update the API?

I don't update this package because I don't have enough time AND I do not have enough knowledge about the IG's web API to update it entirely.
