Delete Your Account

For security reasons, we can't delete an account on your behalf. You must have access to the account in order to delete it. If you can't remember your password or username, you can get help logging in.

To delete your account, you'll need to go to instagram on the web:
  1. Go to instagram.com and log into your account
  2. Click your username or profile picture in the upper-right corner of the page
  3. Select Edit Profile from the dropdown
  4. Click I'd like to delete my account in the lower-right corner
When you delete your account, your photos, comments, likes, and friendships will be removed permanently and will not be recoverable. We cannot reactivate accounts. Additionally, you will not be able to sign up with the same username again.
