How to Get Notified when Someone Posts on Instagram

But that only works for regular photo and video posts; you won't be able to set up notifications for stories, lives, or IGTV that way.

[Edit]Tips

  • To disable notifications for a user, go to their profile, tap the bell icon, and toggle off the switch(es).
  • If you are having trouble receiving notifications after turning this on, make sure that push notifications for Instagram are also turned on in your phone’s settings.[1] On iPhone or iPad, go to Settings app > Notifications and toggle on the switch if it's off. On Android, go to Settings app > Apps > Instagram > Notifications and toggle on "Show notifications" if it's off.
