Instagram has launched an inappropriate content filter

The Instagram blog appeared publication about the launch of the new "Filter inappropriate content" feature. It has already become available to users with the update of the mobile application.

To enable the filter, go to "Settings", then to the "Account" section and select "Filter inappropriate content". The options "Limit" and "Limit more content" will be available to choose from. The second will allow you to more thoroughly filter posts in your feed.

If these settings are not yet available to you, wait for the Instagram app update to be released.
