How do I permanently delete my Instagram account

To permanently delete your Instagram account, you’ll need to go through the deletion procedure either through your web browser or mobile app. We’ve outlined the procedure for browser deletion here , iOS app here , and Android app here .

Is deleting Instagram the same as deactivating?

Sort of, but not quite. As we explained above , when you delete your account, it will function exactly the same as if you had deactivated it for 30 days. The account and all content on it, like images and posts, will be invisible to everyone, including you, but you’ll be able to restore it by simply logging back in at any time. If, however, you fail to do so within the allotted timeframe, the account and all data on it will be deleted permanently.

How long can you deactivate Instagram for?

Indefinitely. Unlike deletion, which has a 30-day grace period, you can deactivate your Instagram account for an indefinite amount of time, and it will stay that way until you choose to log back in. Just keep in mind that you’ll only be able to deactivate your account once every 7 days.

How long does Instagram keep my data after deleting my account?

As far as we know, 30 days after account deletion . In truth, it’s impossible to know if Instagram’s parent company, Meta, is able to keep some of your personal data hidden on its servers for even longer, but we sincerely doubt it.

How do I delete my Instagram account on my iPhone?

You can follow our step-by-step instructions for the iOS app , or use a mobile browser if you’ve already deleted it.

Can you delete Instagram without using the app?

Yes, by using a mobile browser or desktop/laptop device and logging into your account from Instagram’s website. From there, follow our detailed instructions to complete the account deletion process.

Can people still see my profile if I deactivate Instagram?

No, they can’t. Once you decide to deactivate or delete your Instagram account , it will become invisible to everyone (including you) until you decide to log back in.
