Do you have multiple Instagram accounts and want to delete one of them? If you have multiple accounts with the same email address, it can be a bit tricky to delete one of them.
Here’s what you need to know about removing a second Instagram account with the same email:

- Under the “Account” section, tap on “Linked Accounts.”
- Tap on the account that you want to delete.
- Tap on the “Unlink” button.
- Confirm that you want to unlink the account by tapping “Unlink” again.
- If you’re prompted to log in to the account that you want to delete, enter the login information for that account.
- Once you’re logged in to the account that you want to delete, go to the “Settings” menu and tap on “Privacy and Security.”
