Instagram has made it possible for people to share everything interesting that’s going on in their lives. However, not all Instagram users have a public account. In fact, most people like to keep their profile private so that only a selected number of users can view their private Instagram profile.
Unlike Whatsapp and Facebook, Instagram does not have a feature that allows users to get a clear view of the user’s DP (Display Picture).
You cannot maximize the profile photo on Instagram, but you can use third-party tools to view Instagram profile picture in full size. You only have to copy the person’s username, enter it in the search bar, and hit search!
But what about the previous/old or deleted Instagram profile pictures?
If you want to find your old profile picture history, then it’s quite easy.
All posts and profile pictures you upload on Instagram are automatically saved in your gallery by default.
You can view these profile pictures inside the “Instagram” folder in your gallery. Here, you will find all the photos you have used as your Instagram profile picture.
If you want to see previous or old Instagram profile picture history, you’re in the right place.
