How to Unmute Notes on Instagram

It is understandable if you have had to mute someone’s Instagram Notes to avoid overwhelm and clutter. However, if it is causing you to miss some of their important updates or if you have changed your mind, you can actually easily unmute notes on an Instagram account. So, here’s a detailed guide to help you out and get those notes back on track!

There are two ways to go about unmuting someone’s Instagram Notes – from either in-app settings or someone’s Instagram Profile. Now, since the Android and iOS apps for Instagram have a similar interface, we’ve used an Android phone to outline the steps for both these methods.

Note:

While Instagram lets you view Notes across all platforms, you can only unmute someone’s Notes from its Android or iPhone apps. The web version, desktop app, and Instagram Lite mobile app doesn’t give you the option to unmute Notes.

Method 1: Unmute Instagram Notes from the Settings

Once you head over to the Instagram app on your iPhone or Android device, follow these steps:

1. Head over to your Instagram profile screen and tap on the hamburger menu at the top right.
2. Here, select Settings and privacy and tap on Muted accounts under “What you see”.

3. Here, you will see a list of all the Instagram accounts you have muted. Tap on the adjacent Unmute button for the accounts you want to unmute.
4. From the subsequent menu, turn off the Mute notes toggle to unmute it for this account.

This way, you don’t have to try and remember the Instagram usernames of those you have muted Notes for since you will see the list here. Additionally, this method also makes it super easy to bulk unmute Notes for Instagram accounts.

Method 2: Unmute Instagram Notes from Someone’s Profile

Now, if you remember the username of the Instagram account you have muted, you can simply search for that account and follow these steps:

1. Head over to someone’s Instagram profile and tap on the Following button.
2. Next, tap on Mute and turn off Notes toggle.
3. If you want to unmute someone’s notes from other posts and reels as well, you can turn off the Notes on posts and reels toggle from here as well.

Similarly, you can unmute someone’s Instagram Posts and Stories from here. That said, do note that Instagram doesn’t notify the other person when you mute their Notes on the platform. So, you don’t have to worry about that.
