Instagram is recognised as a social media platform, where you can upload whatever, you need for your followers. It even acts as a great community for many people.
However, the one thing no one likes on Instagram is spam, particularly when spam accounts tag and tease you.
How to untag yourself from spam posts on Instagram
Gadinsider has compiled a step-by-step guide on how to untag yourself from spam posts on Instagram.
- Open Instagram and head to the section with tagged images or videos.
- Once there, open any image or video from which you want to remove the tag.

If you need to take things even further, you can make some modifications to your Instagram settings that will prevent people from tagging you in the posts.
This is easier for everyone who doesn't like getting tagged in posts from unknown accounts, or any account, for that matter. Let's look at how to do it below:
- Open your Instagram and go to Settings
- Once you are in Settings, look for Tags and mentions.
- Once you are there, you will have the ability to choose people who can tag you and people who cannot. This is convenient for a lot of people who often get tagged.
Once you are done making these changes, you will have a much easier time on Instagram dealing with spammers or anyone who loves to tag you in all the random posts they can think of.
