WHY DID THIS TAKE SO LONG?

Instagram announced that they will introduce a MUTE button to their apps!

Finally, you can avoid being awkwardly confronted by someone that you unfollowed.

This will allow you to mute their photos, but also mute their Instagram stories. So if you need a break from their posts you can take as long of a break as you’d like!

The update will be rolling out “in the coming weeks” that will feature the new mute button.

Here’s how it will work:

  1. Click the … in the Top right corner
  2. Select MUTE
  3. Choose if you want to just “mute photos” or “mute posts and story”

The good thing is: You will still be able to interact with the people you mute too. They will still be able to DM you, and tag you in posts.

 

Are you happy the MUTE function will finally be an option on Instagram?
