What is New Instagram Followers and Friends Invitation Settings?

The "Follower and Friend Invitations Settings" on Instagram allow a user to manage options related to gaining followers and inviting friends on the platform. These settings help you control the privacy and accessibility options of your Instagram account. Here are the details of these settings:



1. Follower Settings:

  • Public Account: If your account is set to public, anyone who wants to follow you can become a follower directly.
  • Private Account: When a private account is set up, follower requests must be manually approved or denied. This ensures that only the people you approve can follow you.

You can change these settings by going to "Settings" > "Privacy" > "Account Privacy."

2. Friend Invitations Settings:

Instagram makes it easy to invite or find your friends from your phone contacts or linked accounts like Facebook. These settings are managed as follows:

  • Contacts Access: You can invite people from your phone contacts to Instagram or find their Instagram accounts. You can manage this setting by going to "Settings" > "Account" > "Contacts Syncing."
  • Facebook Connection: Instagram allows you to find and invite your Facebook friends. To do this, go to "Settings" > "Account" > "Linked Accounts" and link your Facebook account.

With these settings, you can easily manage follower requests and how you invite friends on Instagram.
