Retro photos filters and square photos aren't for everyone, and Instagram's ties to Facebook might give the privacy-conscious pause, so you have plenty of reasons to want to leave Instagram. Here's how to do just that.
To delete your Instagram account, visit Instagram.com and sign in to your account. Next, select your account name in the upper right corner, and then select Edit Profile.
On the resulting page, scroll down, and look for the link labelled "I'd like to delete my account." Instagram will ask you why you want to delete your account—though not before referring you to a page to soothe your concerns about its privacy policy changes.
Select your reason for leaving Instagram, enter your password where prompted, then press but button labelled "Permanently deactivate my account."
