How to remove Instagram notes

Since there’s no clear-cut way to turn off or remove the notes feature from Instagram, users will have to resort to other options to get rid of the option.

Using Instagram Lite

Unlike the main app, Instagram Lite only carries the essential features of Instagram and notes are not one of them. So, if you’re someone who is fed up seeing notes from accounts filling up your Direct Message (DM) section, go ahead and install Instagram Lite from Google Play Store. Unfortunately, the app isn’t available on the App Store for iPhones.

Using Instagram web

Just like Instagram Lite, the web version of Instagram also doesn’t carry the notes feature. Windows laptop/desktop and iOS users can resort to using the Instagram website on a browser if they wish not to view notes from the people they follow.
