Excessive use of Instagram social network also means that we receive more and more notifications: if they gave me I like it, if someone started a live video or if someone mentioned me. This can sometimes be a bit overwhelming since we do not want to know everything that is happening or some specific notifications do not interest us.
This is why MsnTechBlog will explain step by step how to disable notifications on Instagram.
Instruction to turn off notifications on Instagram:
Disabling receiving Instagram notifications is the easiest task to do. You can simply follow three steps to turn off notifications on Instagram for everyone or except the person you follow. Let’s do it!
Access Instagram options page – Step 1
Open the Instagram application and enter your profile. Enter the Options menu by clicking on the icon located in the upper right corner of the screen represented by three vertical points.
Find Instagram notification settings – Step 2
Scroll down to the “Settings” section where you need to find the “Push Notifications” option. Press here.
Disable notifications on Instagram – Step 3
Now you can configure Instagram notifications so that you can either turn off all types of notifications from all users of the application or get notifications from only those of people you follow or from everyone.
Let’s configure the following section as your desire:
- Likes
- Comments
- Comments Likes
- I like and comments on photos of you
- New Followers
- Accepted Follow Requests
- Friends On Instagram
- Instagram Direct Requests
- Instagram Direct
- Photos of You
- Reminders
- First Posts and Stories
- Product Announcements
- Ads
- View Counts
- Support Requests
- Live Videos
- Story Polls
On all these issues you can choose whether or not you receive notifications and if yes from whom you want to receive them. Mark with blue check the options you choose, in this case, Off.
Note: This method also serves to turn off only the notifications of people you do not follow by choosing the option “From people I follow” without deactivating notifications from every Instagram user completely.
That’s all to turn off notifications that you do not have any interest and that you do not want to get in the Instagram application.
