How to Limit Specific Instagram Ads

Instagram advertisements seem to be appearing more frequently. You can hardly scroll through your feed or your stories without being inundated with advertisements for everything from furniture to gaming apps to clothing. Not all advertisements are harmful, but some unquestionably are, especially for children (and adults) who don’t need to constantly view advertisements for weight loss. There is a technique to limit them if you no longer want to view a certain type of advertisement.

How to limit specific Instagram ads

1. Go to your profile on Instagram by opening the app.
2. In the top right corner of the page, tap the three horizontal lines.
3. Select Settings.
4. Choose Ads about halfway down the list.
5. Select Ad Topics. From there, a very long list of ad themes depending on your activity will be displayed to you.
6. To see less advertisements on that specific subject, click See Less after tapping the right arrow. You won’t be able to be targeted by advertisers depending on your interests.
7. The same steps can be used to search for a certain subject that you’re sick of seeing, such as weight loss diets.
