🙈 Instagram has introduced a new feature allowing users to opt-out of read receipts for direct messages (DMs), providing more control over when “Read” and “Seen” indicators appear.
To use this feature, simply access your IG Direct inbox, select the user or group chat, tap on “Privacy & Safety,” and toggle off “Read Receipts.”
This enables users to prevent others from seeing when they’ve read a message, potentially avoiding unwanted pressure to respond immediately. Businesses can also benefit from managing customer expectations by disabling read receipts.
This update addresses a long-standing request, offering relief from social media interaction stress.
