How to Unfollow People on Instagram

Today's TipsMake will show you how to unfollow all the people you follow on Instagram, both on mobile devices and computers. Instagram limits the number of people you can follow/unfollow per hour and doesn't integrate any way to unfollow all accounts at once. So, if you use a third-party app to unfollow a large number of users, your account is likely to be temporarily locked.
