All ways to log out of Instagram account

Registration in most social networks looks the same. As for ending a session, it raises questions for many. How to log out of Instagram? What are the nuances when ending a session on a PC, and what about on a personal smartphone? How to properly log out of a business profile? Solutions to these problems can be found in the guide below. Follow the advice and everything will go smoothly.

Logout from phone account

As social media is most commonly used on mobile devices, let’s consider the main way to log out of your Instagram account on your phone. First, it’s worth noting some points that require attention:

1. The functionality and interface of the official social media app are similar on all operating systems. However, despite this, the method of ending a session will differ slightly for owners of “Android” and “Apple” devices.
2. Remember the email, phone, and password used in your account. This may come in handy if you need to recover access to your profile.
3. In addition to the main app, you will need to log out of additional programs used to promote and improve your IG account.

Let’s take a closer look at the first point. Let’s consider the rules for logging out on two completely different operating systems:

• Android;
• IOS.

On Android

If your device supports this type of system, follow the step-by-step instructions below to log out of your account:

1. Open the Instagram app.
2. Select the section with the icon of a “person” at the bottom.
3. Click on the button with three lines at the top of the page.
4. Click on “Settings”.
5. Scroll down and find “Log out”.

In reality, it’s quite simple.

On iPhone

The algorithm for ending an Instagram session on an iPhone is slightly different depending on the model of the device, as the icons may be located in a different place. However, the rest of the process remains the same:

• Log in to the app;
• Go to the “Profile” section;
• Access the settings;
• End the session.

How to exit if the data has been saved

When logging out of the service, it offers to check the box “Save login information”. This means that the device will remember your email or mobile phone and password.

On the one hand, it is very convenient because you don’t have to manually enter your login information all the time, but on the other hand, it is quite dangerous. If your phone falls into the wrong hands, your profile information can be compromised.

Of course, the first thing to do is to uncheck the box. What if the service still saved your password? Here’s what to do:

1. Open the Instagram app.
2. Log out of all profiles.
3. Click on the “Delete” button (located below the “Log In” button).

That’s it, now you’ll have to enter your login information manually.

How to exit multiple pages

If you have multiple accounts, for example for work, and you want to leave both at once, follow these steps:

1. Open the Instagram app.
2. Go to your personal profile tab (the “person” icon).
3. Tap on the “three lines” and go to “Settings”.
4. Scroll down and select “Log out of all accounts”.
5. Confirm your decision.

If you only want to log out of your second account on Instagram, follow these steps:

1. Open Instagram.
2. Go to the main page of your personal profile.
3. Tap on “Settings” and scroll down.
4. Tap on “Log out [username]”.

Note that to add a second profile on Instagram, you need to click on the “Add account” hyperlink in the same settings.

How to log out of Instagram on all devices

To log out of all devices, there are two ways:

• Log out of each gadget one by one;
• Use a life hack.

For the first method, you need to end sessions on each device. We have already covered how to do this on a phone, so let’s describe the same steps for a computer:

1. Go to the Instagram website.
2. Click on the “person” icon at the top of the page.
3. Click on the “gear” icon.
4. Select “Log Out”.

For the second method, you need to perform an interesting trick:

1. Open your Instagram account settings.
2. Go to the “Change Password” section.
3. Enter your old and new password.
4. Save the changes.

As a result of this trick, you will be logged out of all devices.

Important. If you want to revert to your old password after using the life hack, know that it is not possible. The social network system does not allow you to enter previous data.

Rules for exiting a business profile

If you have tried your hand at advertising with a business profile, it will be useful to know how to leave such an account. The whole process takes no more than 1 minute. You will need:

1. Log in to the application on your smartphone or on the Instagram website. Use your login and password.
2. Go to the page with the “person” icon and look into the settings.
3. Find the “Accounts” tab.
4. Click on the hyperlink “Return to personal account”.

At the same time, all information: subscriptions, posts, etc. – remains in your profile.

That’s all the guide on how to leave Instagram. In all described cases, everything takes a couple of actions. So don’t be afraid, it’s very easy to get used to such a simple interface.
