Recall that this feature was announced on Thursday,and yesterday added to the application itself. Thanks to it, people who are now online and use the Instagram application, a noticeable green dot appears next to the profile image. Note that only those with whom you are mutually subscribed, or users with whom you have already corresponded, will be able to see it.
To prevent Instagram from showing whether you are online or not, you need to open the application settings and in the sectionPrivacy and securityselect itemNetwork status. On the page that opens, set the slider to the left. Done, now no one will see that you are flipping through a feed without responding to comments!
It is important to note that if you disable this feature, you will not be able to see the status of other users – even those with display enabled.
Instagram has been turning a lot latelyattention to privacy. So, on Thursday, developers began testing a feature that allows account owners to delete subscribers. This is a less radical measure than blocking users, and users you delete can sign back at any time. So this is a great way out for those who are concerned about a large number of inactive subscribers, blocking which can lead to a shadow ban.
