Set Your Profile to Private
Switch to a private account to control who can follow you and view your posts. Only approved followers will see your content, providing an immediate layer of privacy.
Limit Who Can See Your Stories
Use the “Close Friends” feature to share stories with select followers. Additionally, customize your story settings to hide them from specific people if needed.
Control Commenting and Tagging
Adjust your settings to limit who can comment on your posts and who can tag or mention you. This reduces unwanted interactions and increases control over your profile visibility.
Restrict Location Sharing
Avoid tagging locations on posts and stories unless absolutely necessary. Turning off location services for Instagram on your device adds an extra layer of privacy.
Review Your Followers Regularly
Periodically review your followers list and remove anyone you don’t want seeing your content. This is especially useful if you accept follow requests from unfamiliar users.
Be Cautious with Third-Party Apps
Limit access to third-party apps linked to your Instagram. Only use trusted apps to avoid data leaks and unauthorized access to your profile.
Enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA)
Activate 2FA for an added layer of security. This requires you to enter a code sent to your phone or email, making it harder for unauthorized users to access your account.
Following these steps can help you enjoy a safer, more private Instagram experience!
