Bonjour friends!
Once upon a time, I was a little single. I started using Instagram for the first time. I thought that now I would meet a cute girl on insta and will grow my friendship, relationship, and family. What a beautiful dream it was!!!
And guess what?
I met a beautiful girl there named Angel Priya. I started talking to her, and she also chatted with me. And that time, she asked me to recharge a full-year plan on her number.
I was shocked because I was using my father’s data at that time. But the problem was that I had read her message, and she was able to know that I had read that message.
I regretted reading that message. And then, I explored Instagram for marking a message unread.
And I found a way to mark a message as unread.
So, my friends! I, Shyami-the savvy single, will tell you how to mark a message as unread on Instagram 2022. If you also want to keep your read messages unread on Instagram; read the whole article,
How to mark a message as unread on Instagram
Sometimes, you also face a problem reading a message with the read mark. Sometimes you do not want to let other people know that you have opened the chatt. Or sometimes, you receive notifications in bulk; when you accidentally open any message without reading it, you need to mark it unread so that you can reread it when you have time.
To help its users In all these situations, Instagram provides a feature to mark as unread a message. But unfortunately, this feature is available for business accounts only. If you are using a personal Instagram account, you will have first to convert your account into a professional one.
Learn from this step-by-step guide to convert your professional account into a business account.
- Open the Instagram app.
- Go to your profile by clicking on the profile icon in the bottom right corner of the home page.
- Click on the three horizontal lines (hamburger menu) at the top right corner of the page.
- Tap on settings (octagonal icon)
- Tap on the Account option.
- Scroll down and tap on Switch to a professional account.
- Tap Continue.
- Select Your business profile by choosing the options given in the list.
- Tap Done.
- Select the Business option and tap Next.
- Fill in the required information and tap on Next.
- Your business account has been set up.
Once you have set up a professional account, you can use the special tools designed for business accounts. Marking unread a message is also a tool for business account holders.
Let’s know how to use the tool.
Here is a step-by-step guide.
Step 1- Launch the Instagram app.
Step 2- Tap the message icon in the top right corner.
Step 3- Find the chat you want to mark as unread.
Step 4- Press and hold the chat for a few seconds, and it will show you a menu with some options inside it.
Step 5- Now, select Mark as unread.
Step 6- Now, you will see a blue dot appearing on the message. That will hint to you that you did not read the message yet.
Now, you have marked the message unread. Here is a point to remember, the other person will find that message as Seen in their chat. But you can convince them by sending a screenshot of your chat that you accidentally opened the message but couldn’t read what they wrote adequately. And this is why you marked them unread. This is the only solution in this kind of situation.
Finally, I could convince angel Priya and save myself from paying the recharge bill for her. After some days, when I asked her to talk on a Phone call, she denied it, and After more days, I could get to know that she was He!! Or he was She!! Isn’t it confusing?
In short, that was a boy.
I regretted that time, and this is why I could continue my single-ness because of these angels. I hope you also may be able to remove your single-ness and also should be able to save yourself from these kinds of cruel people.
