Instagram Help Center

If you don't want to see someone's posts in your feed, you can mute them:

1. Go to their profile by tapping at the bottom.
2. Type their name into the search at the top and select their profile when it appears.
3. Tap Following below their profile info.
4. Tap Mute.
5. Tap next to Posts.

To unmute them, tap next to Posts.

You can also mute them from feed:

1. Tap (iPhone) (Android) next to their post.
2. Select Mute > Mute Posts.

Instagram won't let them know you muted them. Muting someone's posts is different from unfollowing them and from muting their stories.
