Instagram is one of the top contenders on the list of the most popular social media platforms worldwide, second only to its parent company, Facebook. If you really think about it, there isn’t much of a difference between the core ideas of Instagram and Facebook. Both platforms let you share images and videos, upload daily status updates and connect with your friends.
This might make one wonder how Instagram rose to such success. It’s surprising that this happened when the world’s most popular social media networking site, Facebook, was at its peak.
Well, a seemingly insignificant difference has given out such varying results in the growth of Instagram and Facebook: audience optimization.
That’s not all; celebrities and brands also took an interest in this new place down the street that young people were talking about. Large brands like Gucci, Versace, Prada, Zara, Bottega Veneta, Milan, Louis Vuitton, Armani, and Dolce Gabbana all have Instagram accounts.
Music artists, professional models, Hollywood stars, sportspersons, and politicians have accounts on Instagram where they grace their followers with pictures from their daily lives.
Moreover, some content creators earn a living by innovatively showcasing their unique talents. Small business owners also advertise their products and services on the platform and even offer a portal to their website from their profile itself!
In today’s blog, we’ll discuss how you can unfollow inactive accounts from your Instagram profile.
How to Unfollow Inactive Instagram Accounts
Step 1: Launch Instagram on your smartphone and log in to your account.
Step 2: Your Home Feed is the first page you’ll land on. At the bottom right corner, you’ll see an icon called Your Profile. Tap on it.
Step 3: At the top, you’ll see your username, and below you’ll notice your follower and following count. Tap on the number of people you’re following.
Step 4: A list of all the people you’re following will appear. Start from the very top and look at the usernames as you scroll down. There’s a good chance you’ll be able to tell who has an inactive account but just looking at their username.
Step 5: Beside each username, you’ll see the Following button. Tap on it to unfollow the user.
There you go! Now you can easily unfollow inactive users from your Instagram account.
