After unlinking your Facebook account, you may want to log out of Facebook as well. To do so, open the Facebook app on your mobile device and go to “Settings & Privacy”. From there, tap on “Settings” and scroll down to “Security”. Under “Security”, tap on “Active Sessions” and then tap on the “X” next to the Instagram session to log out of Facebook.
If you don’t want your Instagram posts to be automatically shared to your Facebook account, you can turn off the “Share Your Posts to Facebook” option in the Linked Accounts section of your Instagram account settings.
Congratulations! You have successfully unlinked your Facebook account from your Instagram account. Now, your Instagram activities will not be shared on Facebook, and vice versa.
It’s worth noting that unlinking your Facebook account from your Instagram account will not delete your Instagram account or your Instagram posts.
It simply disconnects the two accounts, allowing you to use each platform independently. If you ever decide to link your accounts again in the future, you can follow the same steps outlined above.
