Deleting your Instagram account is permanent, meaning you won't be able to recover your profile, photos, videos, comments, likes, or followers once it's gone.

Here's how to delete your Instagram account:

Using the Instagram app:

Open the Instagram app and log in to your account.

Go to your profile by tapping the profile picture icon in the bottom right corner.

Tap the three horizontal lines in the top right corner of the screen.

Select "Settings" and then "Accounts Center."

Go to "Personal details" and then tap "Account ownership and control."

Select "Deactivation or deletion" and choose the account you want to delete.

Select "Delete account" and then "Continue."

Enter your reason for deleting your account and re-enter your password.

Tap "Delete account" to confirm.

Using a web browser:

Go to the Instagram website (https://www.instagram.com/accounts/login/?hl=en) and log in to your account.

Click on your profile picture in the top right corner.

Select "Settings" and then "Accounts Center."

Go to "Your information and permissions" and then click "Deactivation or deletion."

Choose the account you want to delete and select "Delete account."

Enter your reason for deleting your account and re-enter your password.

Click "Delete account" to confirm.

Important things to remember:

You cannot delete your Instagram account from the app if you have linked Facebook and Instagram accounts. You'll need to unlink them first by going to your Facebook settings and then to "Apps and Websites."

Once you delete your account, you will have 30 days to reactivate it if you change your mind. After 30 days, your account and all its data will be permanently deleted.

I hope this helps!
