Here’s an interesting feature. As you probably know, people can tag you on Instagram. As you probably also know, there are times when you don’t want to be tagged on Instagram. Embarrassing photos are one thing, but there are even times when a picture can violate your Instagram privacy in a real way.
You can ask the person to remove the photo, but you can also just untag yourself from the picture. It’s a useful way to decrease the chances of someone finding it just by using your name. Whatever your reason, untagging yourself is incredibly simple.
- Find the photo in question.
- Tap on your profile name in the tag.
- You should be able to select “Hide From My Profile.”
It’s also possible to choose “Remove Me From Photo” to remove the tag completely. You can also choose the “Photos of You” section, choose settings, and “Add Manually.” This will prevent others from tagging you themselves.
