Suppose you’re the type of person who loves to stay off the radar when surfing the internet, especially social media.
In that case, you will want to know more about Instagram’s latest activity status feature.
Recently, Instagram rolled out an update that will enable your followers and those you have messaged privately to see when you are active and for how long you have been online.
You have now been given an “activity status,” which can track how many minutes or hours you’ve been online since you last logged into Instagram.
When you log back in, it also shows when you are currently online. If you are active, your status will appear as “active now.”
This information can only be seen by people you follow and those you message privately.
It is nice that Instagram does not show this to everybody, especially those personalities who have over a million followers, but it still feels a bit intimate.
If you want to turn off this feature, here is how to do it:
1. Launch Instagram and go to your profile
2. Tap on the gear icon to move to options
3. Scroll down to “show activity status.”
4. Tap the button next to it to disable the activity tracker.
When you are done with that process, it means you have turned off your activity status.
Most users consider private social media surfing essential, while others don’t.
Regardless of how you feel about this new update, it is necessary to know what is unique about one of the most popular applications in the world.
