Every Instagram comes with default settings where anyone can send message replies to your Instagram Stories. But what if you don’t want to receive replies from your Instagram stories? Thankfully, you can disable replies to your stories’ posts. Here is a quick guide; follow the steps.
How to Stop Users From Replying to Your Instagram Stories
- Open Device Settings by going to your profile and then clicking on the three-horizontal lines placed in the screen’s upper-right corner.
- Tap on Settings, and then go to Privacy.
- After that, tap on Story and check the checkbox that appears under the Reply section. Either way, you can choose the people you follow.
- That’s it!
Now you will not receive any unwanted responses to your Instagram story. Not to mention, your Instagram should be updated to its latest version to deal with disabling Instagram Stories Replies.
On top of that, anyone who views your stories can still react with an emoji and share the story with anyone through a direct message.
