We will teach you how to receive notifications when an account you are interested in posts to Instagram. This is an option that we can activate from the Instagram app itself and that will notify us when the accounts we want download content.
In the same way we can filter the content of which we will be informed, so that every post doesn’t get to us, if that’s not what we want. The only requirement is to follow the user on Instagram with our account, as the process is quite simple.
How to turn on Instagram post notifications
The first thing we need to do is find the profile of the person from whom we want to receive notifications. Just go to the Instagram search engine and write the name of the account. As we expected, it is necessary that we continue on this account, because if we do not, we will not be able to see the option to enable notifications.
Once we enter the user’s profile and follow it, we will see a bell at the top of your profile. This bell is the one that will allow us to activate user notifications, so we click on it. Here we will see four options.
- Publications
- stories
- IGTV
- Live videos (all, some, off)
As we can see, we can configure what we want to receive notifications about, a very comfortable way to personalize the notifications that we will receive. The settings we save here will only apply to the account we are on, so we will have to repeat the process manually with the rest of the accounts, in case we want to receive notifications from other people.
It will also be necessary to enable general Instagram notifications., a point to check if our personalization layer is aggressive and deactivates it by default after a few minutes.
