Intro: If your Instagram feed is filled with posts from accounts you don’t follow, you might want to reduce these unwanted suggestions. While you can’t remove them entirely, there are steps you can take to see fewer suggested posts.
How to Reduce Suggested Posts on Instagram
- Open the Instagram app on your device.
- Start scrolling through your feed.
- When you encounter a post labeled ‘Suggested for You’, look at the top-right corner of the post.
- Find and tap the small X button to remove these posts from your feed for the next 30 days.
- If after 30 days you wish to continue with this action, you will need to repeat the process.
- For a more permanent solution, go to the top of your Instagram home screen and tap on the Instagram logo.
- A menu will appear with different feed options; tap on ‘Following’.
- Switching to Following feed will show posts only from accounts you follow, but note that ads might still appear.
Outro: By following these steps, you can significantly reduce the number of suggested posts cluttering your Instagram feed. This allows you to enjoy a more streamlined experience focused on content from the people you choose to follow.
