How to delete Instagram: Steps to take to delete or deactivate your Instagram account

Jessica Guynn, USA TODAY
Fri, May 13, 2022, 6:05 AM·4 min read

Maybe it's the pandemic doomscrolling, the unsettling revelations about how toxic Instagram is for teenage girls or you are just craving more time for IRL moments with the people you love and less time oversharing your life online.

Whatever the reason, if you are done with Instagram, you have two choices. Make a permanent break (delete your Instagram account forever with no give backs) or take a temporary break (deactivate your Instagram account with the intention of coming back later like Britney Spears).

Pro tip: Before you delete or disable your account, download your data. You can request your data on a mobile browser, desktop or in the app. (Instructions below).

If you are ready to delete or deactivate your Instagram app, fire up a web browser on your desktop or phone. You cannot delete or deactivate your Instagram account on the app. Then follow this step-by-step guide.

Done with Facebook, too?: Here's how to deactivate or permanently delete your Facebook account

SIRI, HOW DO I ... ?: Voice commands that every iPhone (Siri) and Android (Google) user needs

How to delete your Instagram account:

1. Go to the Instagram website and log into your account.

2. Go to the account deletion page.

3. From the drop-down menu, choose the reason you are deleting your account.

4. Enter your password again. Then click or tap the delete button.

The fine print: Instagram says it will take 30 days for your account and data permanently erase your account. During that time, your account will not be accessible on Instagram.

How to deactivate your Instagram account

1. Go to the Instagram website, and log into your account.

2. Go to your profile picture in the top right, click or tap your profile and then “Edit Profile.”

3. Scroll down, then click or tap “Temporarily disable my account” in the bottom right.

4. Choose the reason you are deactivating your account from the drop-down menu next to “Why are you disabling your account?” and enter your password again.

    With Android 13, Google says it's giving users more control over what personal information they share and more detailed control over what files apps can access. Google is also looking to give users more control over how they engage with apps and notifications, as apps must get your permission before sending you notifications in Android 13. Although users already receive an alert when an app accesses their clipboard, Android 13 will go beyond this and automatically delete your clipboard history after a short period of time to prevent apps from seeing old copied information.

    Inflation, like an army of termites, has burrowed its way into the biggest item in the typical family’s budget—putting a roof over their heads. And the Fed can’t fix it.

    Why Does Controversial UST Coin Threaten Bitcoin and Crypto Market

    The cryptocurrency market shuddered Wednesday after the stablecoin UST plummeted to an all-time low of 30 cents. UST, or TerraUSD, was off about 9% to $0.427965, while its sister token Luna was falling nearly 40% to $1.59 at last check, according to CoinGecko, down a staggering 99% from its April 5 all-time high of $119.98. UST and luna are the main tokens of the Terra protocol, a decentralized and open-source public blockchain protocol for so-called algorithmic stablecoins, which are backed by a computer code instead of collateral.

    Disney path to subscriber success is outside U.S.; way to profit less clear

    (Reuters) -Walt Disney Co's quarterly results show a path for signing up a quarter billion subscribers: international expansion. Disney's streaming gains surpassed Wall Street's estimates for the marquee Disney+ video service, thanks to popular new releases including Pixar's "Turning Red" and Marvel's "Moon Knight," but rising programming and production costs left some investors and analysts unimpressed. "The market is now worried the combination of that subscriber guidance and rising costs to compete more broadly with non-Disney brands will result in a less impressive business at steady state," said MoffettNathanson analyst Michael Nathanson.
