How to untag yourself from a photo on Instagram

You might want to do this if you like other tagged photos on your profile but want to get rid of any unflattering ones, or if you’re trying to remove traces of a certain person.

To untag from a photo, first, you need to actually open your tagged photos.

From there, you’ll see all the pictures you’ve been tagged in up to now.

The first way to hide a tagged photo is to pull up the photo, tap it, and then click on your username which should pop up somewhere on your phone screen.

After clicking on your username, you should be given a bunch of options – including ‘Hide from My Profile.’
