How to Block Someone on Instagram (2022)

Do you want to block someone on your Instagram? then this article is for you

To stop anyone from seeing or responding to your posts on Instagram, this article explains how to block users. Instructions apply to Instagram on a web browser, the Instagram app on Apple and Android devices, and both.

HOW TO BLOCK SOMEONE USING THE INSTAGRAM APP

Blocking an Instagram user means they won’t be able to locate your profile, posts, or Instagram story. They won’t be notified that you blocked them, but they can find out with a little detective work. While they can mention your username in their posts, these mentions aren’t displayed in your Activity stream. Here’s how to block another user:

1. Download and open the Instagram app on your iOS or Android device.

2. Find and load the profile of the user account you want to block.

   Note: To find the account, use the search function or tap the account’s username from anywhere in the Instagram app, including your list of followers.

3. Tap Menu (three dots), located in the upper-right corner of the screen.

4. Tap Block.

5. A confirmation box explains what happens when you block the account. Tap Block to proceed.

6. You’ll see a message that the account is blocked. Tap Dismiss to finish the process.

7. To unblock the account, return to its page, tap the menu, and then select Unblock.

   Note: If the person has a private account, you’ll have to request to follow them again.
