1) Get Notifications For Your Favorite Accounts

Keeping up with every account you follow can be tough.  It can be even more challenging when you’re following a hundred or so accounts.  You lose your friends’ posts in the rush of other posts, but there’s ways around that with little features in Instagram.

Getting notifications is really quite simple.  All you have to do is visit the account you want to get notifGetting notifications is really quite simple.  All you have to do is visit the account you want to get notifications from and click the three dots in the top right corner.  A menu will pop up, and one of the options is to get notifications from this account. It’s really that simple.

2) Reorder Your Filter List

When you’re tired of scrolling all the way through the list of filters just to get to your favorite at the end, there’s a trick that will make it easier than ever to use your favorite filters.

The next time you upload or take a picture and edit it, scroll all the way to the end of the filter list.  There is an icon labeled manage.

Once you’re in the list, you can take off filters you don’t like and reorder the filters, so your favorites come first.

3) Add Multiple Accounts

Personal accounts, super personal accounts, professional accounts…the different kinds of Instagram accounts out there are endless.  And you don’t want to have to log in to an account every time you use it. Don’t fret; there’s an option in the settings menu that will allow you to have multiple accounts on the same phone.

Once you find it, you just have to log in and then you’ll be able to access all of your accounts from one phone.

4) Filter And Turn Off Comments

Sometimes, you just don’t need to see the comments.  That’s something that Instagram is prepared for. You can turn off comments on individual pictures from the menus that come up just before you post a photo.  You can also turn off comments on pictures that are already posted.

But if there’s an individual subject coming up that you need to keep out of your head, you can go to settings and block out specific keywords.  

5) Buy Instagram Likes To Your Photos

Did you know you could get up to 10x the exposure and engagement by reaching the explore feed/tab? One of the easiest ways to reach the explore page is to buy Instagram likes to your photos. For the best results, use services like Buzzoid.com - who have been around for years and can reliably deliver real Instagram likes to your photos in minutes.

6) Hide Photos You Are Tagged In

When someone else posts a picture, you don’t have the final say in what they’re showing.  Even if it’s your best friend, they may post a picture that you just think you look terrible in.  Well, there’s an easy way to control which pictures show up as photos of you.

If you go into the photos of you section from your profile, you will see any pictures of you that are out there.  From there, you click the option menu in the top right.

You can hide photos that are already there, and you can change how tagging works for you.  If you go into the Tagging Options menu, you will be able to change how photos are added. If you don’t want every photo just going there, you just click Add Manually.  This will let you pick and choose what you show of yourself.
