Instagram is one of the most popular social media in the world. It is also one of the most addictive apps on the planet. The fact that it surpassed the 2 billion monthly active users limit back in December last year is a testament of how much people enjoy using the app. And the fact that Facebook is losing users while Instagram continues to grow shows that the platform is still going strong. It won’t be too far-fetched to say that it is difficult to get off the platform once you open the app.

Thankfully, there is a way you can set a limit to the time that you spend in the app.

Meta-owned Instagram back in 2018 had introduced a new feature on its platform that enables users to set a daily time limit to their usage of the app. The feature was introduced as a part of its daily well-being tools. Users can select from a set of six options, which includes 15 minutes, 30 minutes, 45 minutes, one hour, two hours and off. In addition to this, users can also set reminders to take breaks while using the app. Users can set 30 minutes, 20 minutes or 10 minutes as options to put a pause to their continuous usage of the app.

So, here is a step-by-step guide of how you can set a daily in Instagram and put a pause to the app’s continuous usage.
