 Hello everyone, this is Amit Dan of amitdan.com, today I'll have another episode of how to video and I'll talk about how to delete Instagram account. So today I'll show you how to delete or disable Instagram account but what it is that you'll not be able to delete or disable Instagram account from your phone app which is right here. So in order to do that you have to go to any desktop or an internet browser. So I'm going to take you to a browser and then from there I'll show you how to disable or delete your Instagram account. Just a tip that if you do not have access to a laptop or computer you can just go to internet browser on your phone just by opening the browser and you can delete it from there. But from the actual Instagram app there's no option to disable or delete Instagram account. So the first thing I'm going to show you how to disable or deactivate your account, before you do that you might want to save all your files on Instagram. So this would save all your pictures, messages or anything and in order to save all your files or folders or all your data just go to settings which is going to be the full button from your profile page. You have to log on to, you have to be logged in and then once you click here then you're going to be clicking on privacy and security and if you click on that then you're going to see an option on this on that page data download. So if you just click on that then here you have to just you know click next after entering your email or which should be populated there and then this would you know save everything on your Instagram account for example photos, comments or profile information and whatever you have there. So whether you're disabling or you know deleting your account this is the first step you should be doing just to be safe and then let's go back to the profile screen. So the first thing we're going to be doing let's disable Instagram account and in order to do that when you're logged in and then just hit edit profile and then you're going to be coming to this page and if you just scroll down a little bit then the last option you'll see that temporarily disable my account so if you just click on that then it's just in asking why you want to disable your accounts and you just choose one of the reasons and then it's going to kind of give you default answers for whatever you choose but then if you still want to disable then just you know enter your password and then once you enter your password then you're going to have to hit this button right here just temporarily disable my account so that's how you disable or deactivate your account. So now let's go back to profile page again. If you'd like to delete your account there's no link or option from this page you have to kind of go to a custom you have to go to an URL to delete the account and the URL is right here so this is instagram.com slash accounts slash remove slash request slash permanent so if I just you know go to this URL which I'll be putting the browser in the address button and then you're going to be taken to a page where it shows delete your account and then same like disabling account it's going to ask you why are you deleting your accounts if you just you know choose an option then it's going to ask you enter your password and then once you enter the password hit permanently permanently delete my account and then that will start the process of deleting your account which could take up to 30 days so once you delete your account everything is gone you'll not be able to retrieve any photos info comments or anything so best to do the downloading which I showed you before just you know back up your account and then you can go ahead and delete your account so that's how you disable and delete your Instagram account thank you for watching this video forget about subscribing to this channel forget about liking this video there'll be more videos coming up so I'll see you shortly thank you
