How to disable the display of online status on Instagram

Instagram has introduced a feature that makes following people even easier. It is enabled by default, but

Fortunately, you can turn it off if you wish.

The function shows the online status of accounts that you are subscribed to or with which you corresponded in Direct. In addition, you can now see how long ago the user opened the application.

Online status can be viewed in Direct under the profile names. If the user is not online at the moment, you will see when they last logged into the application.

Your status can only be seen by your followers and those with whom you corresponded, but the new feature is unlikely to appeal to those who love privacy.

If you want to keep your privacy, just turn off the feature. Below we will explain how this is done.
