Like Google, the Instagram algorithm works its magic all day. So, whatever you post or browse on its platform, stays there until deleted. In some cases, this record comes in handy. At other times, you might feel it appropriate to clear your search history on Instagram, especially when it poses any kind of risk to your privacy. So, how do you clear Instagram search history? We had already seen how to hide your Instagram Story from others. Now, let’s find out how to remove your recent searches records!
How do you clear instagram search history quickly from iPhone?
By default, your Instagram account will show the profiles of individuals you searched for earlier and display them as suggestions under the Instagram search. If you do not like it, go ahead and remove your search history on Instagram.
Launch the Instagram app and go to your Profile by clicking on the icon in the lower-right corner of the app screen.
From the list of options displayed therein, choose Your Activity heading. Tap to expand it. Its one place to manage all your activity on Instagram.
Under Your Activity screen, scroll down to the Recent Searches section to review things you’ve searched for on Instagram and delete your search history. Tap the entry to expand its menu of options.
When directed to a new screen, tap the Clear all button in the top-right corner and when prompted again hit the Clear All button.
Please bear in mind, you won’t be able to undo the action once confirmed. So, if you find your Search History revealing a lot about your preferences like the kind of people, content, and locations you are interested in or search for, don’t hesitate to remove it.
