Instagram is a social media platform that allows users to share and connect with friends and family. However, if you have forgotten your account password or if someone has hacked your account, you may be at risk of losing all of your posts and photos. To delete remembered accounts on Instagram, follow these steps:
- Log into your Instagram account.
- Click on the three lines in the top left corner of the main screen. This will take you to a menu where you can select “Accounts.”
- Scroll down until you find the “Deleting” tab.
- Click on the “Delete” button next to the account name that you want to delete. This will take you to a confirmation page that will ask for your password and other information about how to protect your account from future attacks. If everything goes according to plan, you should be able to delete your account within minutes!
Open Instagram on your mobile phone and log in by entering your username and password details.
Select the Profile icon located at the bottom right of your screen to open up the Instagram profile menu that displays all accounts linked to Instagram as well as additional Instagram settings options that you can edit such as turning the ability for Instagram to save information in an account on or off . If this option is turned off, Instagram will not be able to retain any information about a user when he deletes his account like personal data and photos. Instagram can also erase another user’s content from Instagram Photos, Comments, Likes , Follows , Accounts You Follow , Videos You Watch , Instagram Stories you watch , Instagram Live broadcasts you watch, Instagram direct messages sent and received as well as Instagram places visited .
At this point in time there is no way to actually delete Instagram by itself. Instagram still requires you to log out of your Instagram account before deleting it so that all data related to your Instagram interactions can be erased from its servers. Therefore, users who do not want their Instagram profile information deleted can simply disable that option without actually logging out of Instagram . Alternatively, users who choose not to have their Instagram data saved anymore can deactivate their accounts instead of deleting them . Instagram is dedicated to keeping its users safe and complying with new policies. Instagram cannot guarantee that all information will be deleted during the deletion process so it’s essential that you choose a secure password, not share your Instagram login information, and log out of Instagram before deleting your Instagram account.
