How can I choose whether photos and videos I've been tagged in appear on my Instagram profile?
You can choose whether photos and videos you're tagged in appear on your profile automatically or manually. When you choose to add photos and videos manually, they'll appear on your profile only after you approve them. By default, when someone tags a photo or video of you, it will automatically be added to your profile.
To manually select the photos and videos that appear on your profile:
Instagram app for Android or iPhone and Instagram Lite app for Android:
  1. Tap instagram-user-profile or your profile picture in the bottom right to go to your profile.
  2. Tap three lines stacked on top of each other in the top right, then tap a symbol circle gearSettings.
  3. Tap Privacy, then tap Tags.
  4. Tap Manually Approve Tags.
  5. Tap next to Manually Approve Tags to turn this on.
Instagram.com from a mobile browser:
  1. Tap your profile picture in the bottom right to go to your profile.
  2. Tap Settings in the top left.
  3. Click Privacy and Security.
  4. Below Photos of You, select Add Automatically or Add Manually.
Instagram.com from a computer:
  1. Click your profile picture in the top right corner, then click Settings.
  2. Click Privacy and Security.
  3. Below Photos of You, select Add Automatically or Add Manually.
If you choose to add photos and videos to your profile manually, you'll still be notified when someone tags you in a photo or video. To add that photo or video to your profile, tap the photo or video, then tap your username and select Show on My Profile (iPhone) or tap next to Show in Profile (Android). On your computer or mobile browser, click the photo and then click in the top right. Select Post Options and then select Show on My Profile or Hide on My Profile.
