It\u2019s important to update your Instagram app to ensure it functions properly constantly. By default, your Instagram app will update automatically. However, here\u2019s the step-by-step process to turn them back on if automated updates are off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Press on your profile picture to navigate to your profile page.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Press the three horizontal line icon and then tap <strong>Settings and privacy<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now choose the <strong>About<\/strong> option and then <strong>App updates<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Now, you can toggle on\/off for the <strong>Auto-update Instagram<\/strong> option.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p>The updates will be turned on in the background when the automatic update option is on. This is the easiest option since it means you don\u2019t need to worry about how to update the Instagram app manually.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, if the automated updates features aren&#8217;t on, you can go to the app download page. Therefore, you may see an option to update the app, which will take a few moments to minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Note that when updating your Instagram app, you will need to use data to download the update. Therefore, you may want to wait until you have a WiFi connection instead of a mobile data connection. The latter typically costs more.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"960\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-airam-datoon-15189496-8.jpg\" alt=\"How To Update Instagram To Boost Performance, image \u21162\" class=\"wp-image-2680\" style=\"object-fit:cover;width:500px;height:550px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-airam-datoon-15189496-8.jpg 640w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-airam-datoon-15189496-8-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-airam-datoon-15189496-8-16x24.jpg 16w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-airam-datoon-15189496-8-24x36.jpg 24w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-airam-datoon-15189496-8-32x48.jpg 32w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Update_Instagram_Messenger\"><\/span>How To Update Instagram Messenger<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Do you want to know <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/how-to-update-instagram-messenger-amp-get-all-the-new-features\">how to update Instagram Messenger<\/a> when it\u2019s not working? During the rare occasions when Instagram Messenger isn\u2019t working, you can choose to update the software. This may overcome any problems and get it working again.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s the process for updating your Instagram messenger:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Press on your profile picture at the bottom right corner of the screen.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Select the three horizontal lines icon, and then click <strong>Settings<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Choose <strong>Update messaging<\/strong> and press the <strong>Update<\/strong> button.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Solve_Instagram_Messenger_Update_Not_Showing\"><\/span>How To Solve Instagram Messenger Update Not Showing<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In some instances, you may not have the option to update your Instagram messenger, or it doesn\u2019t work. Also, you must remember that Instagram Messenger is not available in every country. Check on the latest Instagram messenger features to stay updated. Here are a few steps you can take to update Messenger on mobile phones like Android devices:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Update the app<\/strong>: You may need to update your Instagram app to fix Messenger. You can learn how to update my Instagram app in the section above. It usually takes just a few minutes of your time, and it\u2019s good practice to keep the app updated.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>VPN<\/strong>: In countries where the Instagram messenger app isn\u2019t available, you may need to use a VPN. This can help overcome the restriction. You\u2019ll need to set your VPN location to a country where the IG messenger is available. Make sure to always set your location to one of these countries to continue using Messenger with each login.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Log out and back in<\/strong>: Consider taking a few moments to log out of your Instagram profile and back in. This may fix the problem and get your messenger app working again.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Clear IG app data<\/strong>: You may have corrupted cache data you need to clear. You can do this on your mobile device by going to the storage and clearing the cache. This is worth doing frequently to speed up the process.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Check messages options<\/strong>: You may have changed your IG messenger settings, which is causing the problem. For example, altering the privacy settings can significantly change how the messenger app functions. Therefore, you need to investigate the settings to ensure they are correct.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"How_To_Update_Instagram_on_iPhone\"><\/span>How To Update Instagram on iPhone<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Are you interested in figuring out how to update Instagram on iPhone?

However, there are four things that you can do to overcome the problem. The option that leads to the fix depends on the issues, so you need to try them all until something works.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Restart_Your_Device\"><\/span>1. Restart Your Device<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>One of the quickest and easiest ways to solve problems is to restart the device. This cleans out the memory and gets rid of glitches. It can also speed up your device, which ensures the Instagram app can work faster. Also, you can make sure that other apps are not running in the background. It might be that the Instagram app is having a conflict with other apps.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Check_the_Internet_Connection\"><\/span>2. Check the Internet Connection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The Instagram app may not be loading because your internet connection is having problems. Therefore, you\u2019ll need to inspect your WiFi router. However, you may need to switch back to a data connection if you&#8217;re using public WiFi. Some public WiFi connections perform poorly when many users are trying to connect.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Uninstall_and_Reinstall\"><\/span>3.

To uninstall the app, press down on the app icon and choose to uninstall. Then, you\u2019ll need to navigate to the IG app download page on Google Play or App Store.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After reinstalling the app, you will need to log back in with your username and password. Therefore, you need to ensure you have these details written down or memorized. However, when you have forgotten the password, you can recover it by using the provided steps.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_Customer_Support\"><\/span>4.

Therefore, it\u2019s a good idea to give them a try before contacting customer support.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-brett-jordan-5426401-3.jpg\" alt=\"How To Update Instagram To Boost Performance, image \u21164\" class=\"wp-image-2682\" srcset=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-brett-jordan-5426401-3.jpg 640w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-brett-jordan-5426401-3-300x225.jpg 300w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-brett-jordan-5426401-3-24x18.jpg 24w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-brett-jordan-5426401-3-36x27.jpg 36w, https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/01\/pexels-brett-jordan-5426401-3-48x36.jpg 48w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Type_Of_Updates_Will_You_Find_on_Instagram\"><\/span>What Type Of Updates Will You Find on Instagram<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Now, let\u2019s examine the different types of updates that you may receive. You&#8217;ll notice that some of these are a complete game-changer and can transform how you use the Instagram app. If you want to access the latest features right away, you must set automatic app updates to on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Security_Updates\"><\/span>1. Security Updates<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Important Instagram updates focus on security updates to fix vulnerabilities. Some of these vulnerabilities can prevent your account from getting hacked.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>After all, you wouldn\u2019t want hackers getting hold of an account that you have taken years to build. Also, it would be disastrous if hackers got hold of a business Instagram account. They could ruin your brand reputation on the platform with just a few moves.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Other security updates focus on ensuring the website runs smoothly. Hackers can target weak spots in the code and overwhelm the Instagram servers. Therefore, downloading updates ASAP can help prevent a bit of a problem down the line.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_New_Features\"><\/span>2. New Features<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Some Instagram updates may lead to new features that can transfer how you use certain aspects of the software. After the update, you may need to restart the app to start using the features. Here\u2019s an example of what new features an update can bring:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Reel editing features<\/strong>: Instagram released a powerful update for editing your Instagram Reels. This allows you to zoom, rotate, scale, crop, and much more. Therefore, the editing tools are now on par with other social media platforms like TikTok.\u00a0<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Close Friends list<\/strong>: Another handy feature that Instagram added allows you to limit who can see posts to the <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/instagram-close-friends-can-be-your-safe-space-on-instagram\"><strong>Close Friends<\/strong><\/a> list. Therefore, you can avoid sharing posts with users who may not be interested in the posts. Also, stop showing private posts to Instagram users that you don\u2019t want to see the content.&nbsp;<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Share comments to stories<\/strong>: Instagram added a new feature where you could <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/instagram-stickers-child-like-fun-for-adults\">use stickers<\/a> that reflect post comments in <a href=\"https:\/\/plixi.com\/resources\/creative-instagram-story-ideas-worthy-of-a-best-selling-book\">Instagram stories<\/a>.
