What This Guide Covers
Instagram is simple to use and surprisingly hard to make safe, because almost everything is public until you change it. This guide sorts that out first, then covers posts, Stories, Reels, Highlights and Close Friends in plain language.
It includes the two tools most users never discover: Hidden Words, which filters unpleasant comments automatically, and Restrict, which quietly limits someone you cannot block without awkwardness.
