To unfollow everyone on Instagram, there is no direct one-click option to do this instantly within the app due to Instagram's restrictions designed to limit spam behavior. However, here are the practical ways to approach it:
- Manual Unfollowing:
- Go to your Instagram profile.
- Tap on "Following" to see the list of accounts you follow.
- You can unfollow accounts one by one by tapping on the "Following" button next to each account.
- Instagram limits the number of unfollows to around 150-200 per day to prevent spam, so this process often takes time if you follow a large number of accounts.
- Using Instagram Features:
- Use the "Least Interacted With" section in your following list to identify and unfollow accounts you interact with the least.
- This can be found at the top of your "Following" list and helps prioritize which accounts to unfollow.
- Request Instagram Help:
- Another notable method is to report a problem through Instagram’s settings asking for help to unfollow everyone, though this may take days or a week for Instagram support to respond and act.
- Third-party Apps:
- There are third-party apps that claim to mass unfollow accounts, but using them is risky as it can violate Instagram's policies and potentially result in account suspension.
In summary, the safest way currently is to manually unfollow accounts gradually, focusing on "Least Interacted With" accounts, or to send a request for help through Instagram’s support tools if available.
