If you realize that you are following too many people and want to make your feed more manageable, Instagram now provides you with easy ways to discover who posts the most and which posts you are genuinely not interested in.
Instagram update offers unfollow suggestions
- Get Instagram for Android.
- Get Instagram for iPhone.
Users can also organize accounts based on when they started following them. Thus, you can quickly see who has been appearing in your feed the longest or who are your most recent followers. These follow categories can be accessed through the Following button on your profile.
An Instagram spokesperson stated, 'Instagram truly brings you closer to the people and things you care about, but we understand that over time, your interests and relationships can evolve and change'. Therefore, the company aims to 'make managing the accounts you follow on Instagram easier so that those accounts are the best representation of your current interests and relationships'.
Follow lists will help you easily determine who to unfollow, rationalizing the data feed for you to access the posts you care about most, while ensuring that those posts do not come from a single account. It's a smart move by Instagram, allowing users to view only interesting content in their feed and can help users engage more with the app, while still ensuring that advertising revenue continues to soar.
