How to reset your Instagram algorithm

It’s officially happening—Head of Instagram, Adam Mosseri says you can reset your Instagram feed soon!

Instagram is currently testing the ability to reset and refresh the recommendations on the app.?

What does this mean?

Well, if your feed has started to feel a bit stale about the recommendations in your feed or Explore Page have felt like they don’t really fit what you’re interested in, you can now reset the content.

Mosseri warned users that this feature shouldn’t be taken lightly. Resetting your Instagram recommendations means that your feed is going to be boring AF at first until Instagram recognizes what you want.

If you have the feature (and are wanting to do a reset!), here’s exactly how to do it:

• Open your Instagram
• Go to your profile
• Click the hamburger menu in the top right-hand corner
• In settings, click on “Suggested Content”
• Click “Reset Suggested Content”
• Click “next”
• Select “Reset Suggested Content”

And that’s it! You’re done. Instagram is gonna have to work hard on getting to know you again once more.
