To remove a follower on Instagram from your iPhone or Android, go to your profile and choose Followers > Find the follower you want to remove then tap Remove. Removing a follower won’t notify them. Your Instagram account must be set to private so that the removed user can not follow you again.
What happens when you remove a follower on Instagram?
You may find spam accounts are following you or want to prevent someone from viewing your Instagram activity. In this situation, removing them from the followers’ list is ideal. Because if you block the user, their likes and comments on your post will disappear. Besides, if you restrict someone on Instagram, they can still see your posts and leave a comment. But removing a follower will ensure they don’t get your posts on their feeds. Moreover, if you are concerned about privacy, I suggest turning your Instagram account to private. It will hide all your posts from the public and allow you to manually accept each follower request. So, when the removed user searches for your account, they can’t see any of your content!
