How to remove an account from Instagram

1. Open the Instagram app on your iPhone or Android. Tap your profile picture in the bottom-right corner.

The interface layouts are analogous on iPhone and Android. Emma Witman/Business Insider

2. Tap the down arrow next to your Instagram username at the top of the screen.

Tapping the arrow will pull up all of your Instagram accounts. Removing an account is the same as simply logging out in these steps. If you want to wipe the account from Instagram completely, that is a different process. Emma Witman/Business Insider

3. Select the account that you want to remove from the drop-down list.

You'll need to be logged into the account you want to log out of. You can also log out of multiple accounts at a time. Emma Witman/Business Insider

4. Tap the three lines in the top-right corner.

Don't get sucked into the distraction of checking your timeline — everything you need to do to log out is done from your profile page screen. Emma Witman/Business Insider

5. Tap "Settings," or the gear icon, from the menu. 

6. Tap the blue "Log Out" text at the bottom of the screen. Click the blue "Log Out" button in the pop-up window to confirm your choice. In this window you can also log out of multiple accounts at the same time by tapping the circle to the right of the account name — a blue check mark should appear in the circle if you've selected the account. 

After clicking "Log Out" the first time, you'll be prompted to confirm, in case you change your mind or are logged into the wrong account. Emma Witman/Business Insider

The account will no longer show up alongside your other Instagram accounts.
