Reshape Your Instagram With a Recommendations Reset

We want to make sure everyone on Instagram – especially teens – has safe, positive, age-appropriate experiences and feels the time they’re spending on Instagram is valuable. In addition to providing built-in protections from sensitive content with Teen Accounts , we want to give teens new ways to shape their Instagram experience, so it can continue to reflect their passions and interests as they evolve.

That’s why we’ve started testing the ability for everyone on Instagram – including teens – to reset their recommendations. In just a few taps, you’ll be able to clear your recommended content across Explore, Reels and Feed and start fresh. 

Your recommendations will start to personalize again over time, showing new content based on the content and accounts you interact with. When resetting, you’ll also have the option to review the accounts you’re following and unfollow any that share content you no longer want to see.

We’re excited to partner with organization experts Joanna and Clea from The Home Edit to share tips for parents on how both they and their teens can organize their Instagram accounts, just like they’d organize their homes, taking stock of what they’re looking at every now and then to see whether it still suits them and whether there’s other content they may prefer.
