Instagram: How to delete followers

If you are annoyed by your followers or someone is harassing you, you can delete followers on Instagram. However, removing subscribers only works if you have set your profile to private. There is also the option of blocking.

How to delete followers on Instagram: private mode

You have the option on Instagram to delete followers when your profile is set to private. This is accomplished through the profile. Then you can remove any subscriber you do not want as a follower.

1. Open the Instagram app and navigate to your profile.
2. Now tap on the menu icon in the top right corner and then open the settings.
3. Then select "Privacy > Privacy of your account".
4. Now activate the "Private account" function here. If someone wants to follow you, you will receive a notification from now on and can accept or decline the subscription.
5. Now to delete one or more followers on Instagram, open the follower's profile.
6. Tap then in the top right corner on the menu icon.
7. Finally tap "Remove".

Without private mode: block followers

If you do not want to set your account to private, you can not delete followers directly. Aber wenn Sie einen Follower blockieren, verfällt das Abonnement der Person und sie kann keine Beiträge mehr von Ihnen sehen.

1. Rufen Sie das Profil des Followers auf, den Sie blockieren möchten.
2. Tippen Sie nun oben rechts auf das Menü-Symbol.
3. Anschließend wählen Sie „Blockieren“ aus. Die Person wird darüber nicht benachrichtigt.
