How to find your Instagram URL using a computer or mobile device
One of the most mobile-friendly social networking sites is probably Instagram.
It can be challenging to locate the URL for your Instagram account because Instagram is so tailored to mobile devices and doesn’t function like a typical website.
Fortunately, it’s not as challenging as you might imagine.
How to find your Instagram URL on your computer
To find the URL of your Instagram account on a computer:
- Open a web browser and go to www.instagram.com
- Log in to your Instagram account.
- Click on your profile picture in the top right corner of the screen to go to your profile.
- The URL of your Instagram account will be displayed in the address bar of your web browser. It will be in the format “www.instagram.com/[your_username]”.
Alternatively, you can also find the URL of your Instagram account by clicking on the “Edit profile” button on your profile page and looking for the “Username” field. The URL of your Instagram account is the same as your username.
How to find your Instagram URL on your mobile device
To find the URL of your Instagram account on your mobile device:
- Open the Instagram app on your mobile device.
- Tap on your profile icon, which is located in the bottom right corner of the screen. This will take you to your profile page.
- Your Instagram URL is the web address that appears at the top of your profile page. It will be in the format “instagram.com/yourusername”.
- You can copy the URL by tapping and holding on it, then tapping “Copy” when the options appear.
