How do I find my Instagram username?

Usernames are a unique identifier for any account on the platform.

If you need to find and copy the Instagram username for yours, or someone else's account, follow these simple steps for both desktop and the mobile app.

On Desktop:

Step 1: Open your preferred web browser and go to the Instagram website (https://www.instagram.com/).

Step 2: If you're not already logged in, enter your login credentials (username and password) to access your Instagram account.

Step 3: Click on your profile picture or your profile icon located at the top right corner of the page. This will take you to your profile page.

Step 4: On your profile page, you will see your Instagram username displayed right under your profile picture and bio. It appears as "@username."

Step 5: Click on your username to select it, then right-click and choose "Copy" from the context menu that appears. Your Instagram username is now copied to your clipboard and ready to be pasted.


On Mobile (App):

Step 1: Open the Instagram app on your mobile device.

Step 2: If you're not already logged in, enter your login credentials (username and password) to access your Instagram account.

Step 3: Tap on the profile icon, typically located at the bottom right corner of the screen. It looks like a silhouette of a person.

Step 4: On your profile page, you will find your Instagram username displayed prominently at the top, just below your profile picture and bio. It appears as "@username."

Step 5: Tap and hold your username to select it. A menu will appear; select "Copy." Your Instagram username is now copied to your device's clipboard.

Now that you've successfully copied your Instagram username, you can paste it wherever you need it, whether it's for sharing with friends or using it for various online activities.

That's it! You've learned how to find and copy your Instagram username on both desktop and the mobile app.
