YouTube videos clearly show the number of views a particular video has received. For Instagram and Facebook posts, depending on your privacy settings, other users may be able to see the number of likes and comments on your posts.
However, if you would like to hide the number of views and likes on your post, a couple of steps should do the trick. Before sharing a post on your Instagram feed, tap on “Advanced Setting” at the bottom. Turn on the “Hide Likes and View Counts” for videos and “Hide Like Counts” for photos to conceal your likes and view count from others.
If you want to hide Likes or View counts on other users’ posts, you can change the settings on your profile. Tap on your profile picture at the bottom right of your Instagram page. Now, tap on the top right-hand corner on the three dashes. Go to Setting, then Privacy, and then Posts. Use the slider button next to the “Hide Likes and View Counts” to turn this setting off. You can also turn it on the same way.
These steps can prevent users from seeing the number of likes and views on your posts in the Feed. However, they may still be able to see the number of views and likes on Instagram Reels.
