To turn on Quiet Mode on Instagram, follow these steps:
- Open the Instagram app and tap your profile picture at the bottom right.
- Tap the three horizontal lines (menu) at the top right corner.
- Tap "Notifications."
- Select "Quiet mode."
- Toggle the switch to turn Quiet Mode on.
- You can optionally set the start and end times for Quiet Mode to automatically activate and deactivate, for up to 12 hours.
When Quiet Mode is on, notifications are paused, your activity status updates to "In Quiet Mode," and any direct messages will receive an automatic reply indicating you are temporarily inactive. Once you turn off Quiet Mode, you will get a summary of missed notifications.
