If you’re looking to disconnect your Instagram account from Facebook, you’ve come to the right place. Follow these steps to unsync your Facebook account from Instagram:
Access Your Instagram Profile
First, open the Instagram app on your mobile device and navigate to your profile by tapping on your profile picture in the bottom right corner.
Go to Settings
Once you’re on your profile, tap on the three horizontal lines in the top right corner, then select “Settings and Privacy” from the menu that appears.
Access Your Account Settings
In the Settings menu, tap on the “Account” option to access your account settings.
Unlink Your Facebook Account
Next, find the “Sharing to Other Apps” option and tap on it. From the list of social networks, select Facebook.
Disconnect Facebook
Look for the option that says “Unlink Account” on iOS devices or simply “Unlink” on Android devices. Tap on this option to disconnect your Instagram account from Facebook.
Confirm Your Decision
You may be prompted to confirm your decision to unlink the accounts. Confirm the action to proceed with unsyncing your Instagram account from Facebook.
Success!
Once you’ve completed the steps above, your Instagram account will no longer be synced with your Facebook account. You have successfully unsynced the two accounts.
Considerations
Keep in mind that after unsyncing your Facebook account from Instagram, posts shared on Instagram will no longer automatically appear on Facebook. You may need to manually share posts on Facebook if desired.
Privacy Concerns
Unsyncing your accounts can help maintain your privacy by preventing cross-platform sharing of personal information between Instagram and Facebook.
Adjust Settings as Needed
If you ever wish to reestablish the connection between your Instagram and Facebook accounts, you can revisit the Account settings on Instagram and follow the same process to link the accounts again.
Enjoy Independent Usage
By unsyncing Facebook from Instagram, you can enjoy using both platforms independently without the automatic sharing of content between them.
Explore More Options
Consider exploring other settings and features within Instagram and Facebook to tailor your experience on each platform to your preferences and privacy needs.
