If you’re a user of Instagram on your iPhone, then you may be wondering how to disable it. Here’s how:
- Open the Settings app and navigate to the Accounts section.
- Scroll down and select your Instagram account.
- Toggle the switch next to “Disable Instagram.”
- Save the changes and close the Settings app.
On your computer, open Instagram. Click your profile picture. Select Profile. Next to your username, click Edit Profile > scroll all the way down. Select “Temporarily disable my account.
Click the profile button in the upper-right corner. Choose Profile from the drop-down menu. Select Edit Profile next to your picture and user name. Select the Temporarily disable my account option from beneath your profile photo and user name.
There is no hard and fast rule on how long you have to reactivate your account. We understand that with Twitter, you can deactivate your account for 30 days before having to reactivate it, after which it will be deleted forever. You may keep your Instagram account inactive for as long as you like, whether it’s ten months or.
As long as you keep your account disabled only once per week, you can deactivate it any number of times. Instagram allows you to deactivate your account for a maximum of one week at a time.
Open your mobile browser. Go to Instagram’s Delete Your Account page. If you’re not signed in, follow the instructions to log in. When prompted to why you’re canceling your account, choose an option. Re-type your password again. Select Permanently Remove My Account from the drop-down menu.
