Instagram: so you can restrict users without having to block them


Although many times we would love to block certain users on Instagram, for various reasons we cannot. However, if you need to make use of a similar function, you should know that the social network has a function that allows restricting users.

To apply this method in Instagram You do not need to resort to any third-party application, since it is a native function of the platform. In addition, you can apply it both on a phone Android as in a iPhone.

One of the main advantages of the option to restrict contacts on Instagram is that the user will not find out that they have been restricted. This person can continue commenting on your photos, sending you messages and so on, but he will be the only one who sees what he has commented and he will not be able to know if you have read his messages or not, since the seen marker stops working.

Likewise, you will also stop seeing the publications that that person makes and you will stay really calm, since we will not have to see them all hours on our Instagram.

Instagram also clarifies that, if you activate the option To restrict, the messages that the restricted person sends you will be sent to the message request list, so they will not be able to see when you are online or if you have read their messages.

To restrict an account in Instagram you must follow the following steps:

  • Open the configuration section
  • Go to the Privacy settings
  • Select ‘Restricted accounts’
  • Choose the users you want to restrict.
