    When someone tags you in a picture on Instagram, the photos automatically appear on your profile. These pictures are grouped together in a tab labeled Tagged. Anyone who follows you can visit your profile and see these pictures.

    If you don’t want to include tagged photos on your profile, there are several ways to do so. You can also choose to review a picture before it appears on your profile. 

    How to Hide Tagged Photos on Instagram?

    You can hide tagged photos on Instagram by adding a feature that asks for your permission before adding the tagged picture to your profile. 

    For Single Photo

    You can go to the Tagged tab on your Instagram profile and manually hide every photo from your profile. Note that you can only do this on the mobile app. Follow these easy steps to do so:

    1. Go to the Instagram app.
    2. Tap your profile picture on the bottom right corner.

    3. Tap the Tagged tab right under your highlights.
      tagged-tab
    4. Click on the photo you want to hide.
    5. Tap the three vertical dots. These dots are horizontal on an iPhone.

    7. Select Hide from profile.
      hide-from-my-profile
    8. Repeat the steps above for all the pictures you want to hide.

    For Multiple Photos

    You can hide multiple photos at once through the Instagram app. This can save you some time rather than hiding these posts one by one. Follow these steps to hide multiple photos at once.

    1. Open the Instagram app.
    2. Click on your profile picture on the bottom right corner.
      profile-on-instagram
    3. Click on the three horizontal lines at the top right corner.

    8. Now select all the pictures you want to hide.
    9. Click on Hide.

    How to Manually Approve Tagged Photos on Instagram?

    When you choose to manually approve any tags on Instagram, you can review a picture before adding it to your profile. When someone tags you, you will receive a notification and will be able to decide if you want it to show on your profile. Please note that you will have to do an approval on every tag you get.

    You can turn this feature on by following these steps.

    On PC

    1. Log in to your profile on Instagram.
    2. On the bottom left corner, click on the three horizontal bars.
