The Instagram app is definitely the most used method by users to connect to this social network. The method that we will explain in a moment is valid both for those who access the Instagram app using an Android smartphone, and from those who use an iPhone and therefore have iOS as an operating system. As said, the search methods available are many. Let’s see, in order, how to make the most of them. Use “Explore” mode: the most common search function to use on Instagram is the one offered by Explore mode. To access this section just enter the app and tap on the icon at the downside in the form of a magnifying glass. In this section, at the top, there is the search bar. To use it type the name of the person or the username if you already know it. The application will already show you suggestions based on what you typed. Besides, you can refine your search by choosing only the “Account” item, this will exclude hashtags and places from the results shown. Connect your profile to your Facebook account: Instagram is a social network owned by Facebook Inc. so you can associate the two social accounts.
