Easy Steps on How to Deactivate an Instagram Account

Step 1: Visit instaport.me

Step 2: Sign into Instagram and Authorize Account

Step 3 Choose your exporting options

Other apps you can try are Frostbox and iDrive. I tried logging into Frostbox and I discovered that it provides a 7 day free trial. The app can sync photos and videos from Instagram, plus I was able to download photos one by one but cannot download it as a bundle. I think it may be better to pay for the service so you can get more benefits from it.

Log into your account

Then visit

https://www.instagram.com/accounts/remove/request/permanent/

If there is a chance you might want to come back to Instagram but you just want to be inactive then consider deactivating temporarily through this link:

https://www.instagram.com/accounts/remove/request/temporary/

(You also have to log

in first.)

Choose a reason.

Instagram likes to argue against all your reasons to delete your account, so just stick to your guns and choose “permanently delete my account”.

Goodbye

Third Party Apps

There are some third party apps that can do this for you such as: Instagress, Instamacro, Unfollowers, JustUnfollow.

Manually

On Instagram, you can only unfollow 200 people in an hours and on average 600 in a day. If you try to do more than that then your account may be terminated.

Step 1: Login into Instagram and go to Profile.

Step 2: Press the box which shows you your followings.

Step 3: Once you can see all your followings, click on green button which says 'Following' on the top right side of your profile.

Step 4: Click on the persons profile then a box will appear saying confirm 'unfollow' by clicking yes.

Step 5: Follow the process 200 times in an hour.

Step 6: After an hour, repeat the process again.

Tricky Oblivion

Delete your Instagram account and wait for few hours till. After, create the same account with the same credentials (yes Instagram lets you do this) and follow only a select group of people.

Delete the Account Instead

Instagram doesn’t notify people if someone has unfollowed them. Neither will anyone know that you have unfollowed them unless they search for you specifically. It is better to delete your account instead of annoying the people you follow.

The purpose of the tagging feature is to give other users a way to identify who you are in photos. It also adds the photos to your personal collection (but not your main profile), which is called the ‘Photos of You’ tab. Tagging is a great way to connect with other people who share the same interests as you. You can remove the tag so that other people don’t see it when someone tags you.

1. View your profile by clicking on the ‘person’ icon located on bottom right.

2. Click the person icon on the middle right. This will let you view ‘Photos of You.’

3. Decide which photo of yourself you would like to untag or hide, then click on the three dots (in the right corner at the bottom of your photo and choose ‘Photo Options’.

4. To untag yourself, click on “More Options” then “Remove Me from Photo.”(You could choose “Hide from Profile” if you want to hide but not untag yourself).

5. To prevent being tagged into the pics you don’t like, you can opt for tagging permission.

Change Tagging Permission:

Step 1

Go to your profile click on the "Photos of You" tab.

Step 2

Click the "Options" icon in the top right hand corner – On the Android device it looks like three vertical dots and a gear on an iOS device.

Step 3

Click on "Add Manually." Now, any time other users tag you in a photo, you will have to approve it before your identity is revealed in the photo.
