Did your New Year's resolution involve spending less time on your phone and more time being a productive member of society? Or are you ready for a social media cleanse and Instagram is your biggest offender? Whatever it is, if you're tired of all the attention you're getting from your bomb selfies (ugh), then say goodbye to Instagram. Follow the easy steps ahead to get rid of your account. And hey, you're not alone — even Kendall Jenner did it for a little bit.
01
Log into your account on Instagram either on a desktop computer or a mobile browser.
Unfortunately, you can't delete your account through the Instagram app itself.
02
Use the link ahead to delete your account.
This link will bring you directly to the Delete Your Account page.
03
Pick a reason you're deleting your account.
Too distracting? Too many ads? Privacy concerns? Whatever it is, choose a reason.
04
Reenter your password and then click the "Permanently delete my account" option.
Ta-da! Hours of your day just became free again.
