How do you temporarily disable Instagram account more than once a week?

Answered by Edward Huber

I appreciate your kind words and I’ll do my best to provide a detailed answer to your question.

As of now, Instagram only allows users to temporarily disable their accounts once per week. This means that if you disable your account and then decide to reactivate it, you’ll have to wait for a week before you can disable it again. This restriction is in place to prevent users from constantly disabling and reactivating their accounts.

If you have already disabled your account once within the past week and you want to disable it again, you’ll have to wait until the week is over before you can do so. During this waiting period, you can still log in and use your Instagram account as usual.

To temporarily disable your Instagram account, you can follow these steps:

1. Open the Instagram app on your mobile device or go to the Instagram website on your computer.
2. Log in to your account using your username and password.
3. Navigate to your profile page by tapping on the profile icon located at the bottom right corner of the screen.
4. Tap on the three horizontal lines at the top right corner of the screen (on the mobile app) or the profile icon at the top right corner of the screen (on the website) to access the settings menu.
5. From the settings menu, select “Settings.”
6. Scroll down and tap on “Account.”
7. On the Account page, scroll down and select “Temporarily disable my account” (on the mobile app) or “Temporarily disable account” (on the website).
8. Follow the prompts and provide a reason for disabling your account.
9. Once you’ve completed the process, your account will be temporarily disabled.

It’s important to note that temporarily disabling your account is different from permanently deleting it. When you disable your account, your profile, photos, comments, and likes will be hidden until you reactivate it by logging back in. However, your account information and data will not be deleted, and you’ll still be able to access it once you reactivate.

While Instagram allows you to temporarily disable your account once per week, you can easily reactivate it at any time by logging back in. Just keep in mind the one-week restriction if you want to disable your account again after reactivation.
