To switch to a personal account on Instagram from a professional (business or creator) account, follow these steps:
- Open the Instagram app and tap your profile icon at the bottom right to go to your profile.
- Tap the three horizontal lines (menu) at the top right, then select "Settings."
- In Settings, tap "Account."
- Scroll down and tap "Switch Account Type" or "Switch to Personal Account."
- A pop-up will appear with options; select "Switch to Personal Account."
- Confirm your choice by tapping "Switch Back" or the confirmation button.
After this, your account will be switched to a personal Instagram account with a simpler interface and more privacy options, but you will lose access to business or creator features like analytics and advertising tools
. This process is quick and straightforward and can be reversed if needed by switching back to a professional account later
