Instagram offers tons of features that ensure your privacy is secured, even when it comes to direct messaging activity. If you want to hide when you are last seen on your Instagram direct message, there is a simple way to do that.
Quick-Step
Launch Instagram > Profile > Tap 3-line button > Settings > Privacy > Activity Status > Switch off Show activity status toggle
Follow these steps:
1. On your profile, tap the hamburger menu (the three stripes) and select Settings.
2. Go to Privacy > Activity Status. And from there, simply toggle off Show activity status.
And you’re done! This feature is really helpful when you want to stay low profile on Instagram or when you simply need some time off from having to immediately respond to DMs. Best of luck!
