If you want to delete your Instagram account, I will proceed now. If you cover it, you can easily create an Instagram account, and these accounts are in your hands. You can recover this account for the first 30 days; after 30 days, it will be completely deleted, and you will not be able to recover it. Here are some important instructions we give you whenever you delete your Instagram account. First of all, upload your photo image, whatever your documents are, or save it in a file so that you don’t get any damage.
What is a web browser?
A web browser is a software application that accesses and views websites online. It retrieves, presents, and navigates web pages, allowing users to interact with online content like text, images, videos, and links.
Examples of web browsers:
- Google Chrome
- Safari
- Mozilla Firefox
- Microsoft Edge
A web browser works by connecting to servers and displaying web pages written in languages like HTML and CSS.

Important Reminder:
Once your Instagram account is permanently deleted, all your photos, videos, followers, likes, and comments will be erased. This action cannot be undone. If you’re not sure, you can temporarily deactivate your account instead.
Steps to Delete Instagram Account Permanently
Backup Your Instagram Data (Optional but Recommended)
Before deleting your account, it’s a good idea to download a copy of your data to save your photos, videos, and messages.
- Open Instagram via desktop or mobile browser.
- Go to Settings > Privacy and Security > Download Data.
- Enter your email and request a data download.
Go to the Account Deletion Page
You must be using a web browser (mobile or desktop).
- Visit the Instagram account deletion page:
Log into Your Account
If you aren’t logged in, enter your username and password to access the account deletion page.
Select a Reason for Deleting Your Account
- Instagram will ask you why you want to delete your account. Choose a reason from the drop-down menu.
Re-enter Your Password
Instagram will ask you to enter your password again.
Delete Your Account
Click Delete [Your Username].
- Your account will be deactivated for 30 days, during which you can log back in to cancel the deletion. After 30 days, the account will be permanently deleted.
Temporarily Deactivate Your Instagram Account
If you’re unsure about permanently deleting your account, you can deactivate it temporarily, which hides your profile and posts but keeps your data.
Steps to Temporarily Deactivate Instagram:
#1: Open Instagram via a web browser (desktop or mobile).
#2: Log in to your account.
#3: Go to your profile and click Edit Profile.
#4: Scroll down and select Temporarily Disable My Account.
#5: Choose a reason for deactivation and enter your password.
#6: Click Temporarily Disable Account.
Final Notes:
Mobile App: You cannot delete or deactivate your account directly through the Instagram app. You need a web browser.
Deleting Instagram vs. Deactivating Instagram
Before you proceed, it’s important to understand the difference between permanently deleting and temporarily deactivating your Instagram account.
- Permanently deleting: When you permanently delete your Instagram account, all your data, including photos, videos, followers, likes, and comments, will be erased forever. You will lose access to everything connected to your account and reactivate it.
- Temporarily deactivating: If you’re unsure about leaving Instagram, you can temporarily disable your account. This hides your profile, photos, comments, and likes until you reactivate it by logging back in. Nothing is permanently lost in this option, making it a safer choice than a temporary break.
