Instagram reveals when was the last time you connected and so you can fix it

Polls are added on Instagram Stories

In the last Instagram update there was a surprise hidden: now your followers will be able to know when was the last time you connected. That is to say, follow the same path of WhatsApp and give more information than is due to users. However, all this can be arranged and it will be you who decides whether or not you want to share your status.

If you are one of those who regularly use Instagram live streams, you may have seen that after the last update of the application something new appears in your different conversations. Exactly, it's about the state that follower / contact is in. And is that now we will be able to know when our followers connect; that is, if they have not appeared on the social network for 2 days; if they are currently inside, etc. And as always, these changes elicit all kinds of evaluations. Now, this information you can always choose whether to share it or not. So lets see how to turn off this function.

disable instagram statuses

The first thing you should do so that the status is not visible is to enter "Settings" of your Instagram account - always talking about the mobile, of course. This option in the form of a piece is right next to the "Edit profile" button. Once inside the settings, we will only have to scroll almost to the end of the list and the option that interests us is "Show activity status". Surely this option is enabled by default; you just have to deactivate it.

Now, be careful because if you are one of those who tend to 'spy' on your followers and you like to have them controlled to know if they have read your message or not, by deactivating this option you will not be able to see the status of your contacts either; that is, either all or none. What's more, just below the option, Instagram warns you of the following:

Let the accounts you follow and anyone you message see when your last activity was on the Instagram apps. If the option is disabled, you will not be able to see the activity status of other accounts.
