This wikiHow teaches you how to unfollow people you follow on Instagram, either on a mobile device or on a computer. There's no way Instagram offers to unfollow anyone you follow on Instagram all at once. Instagram puts a limit on the number of people you can follow and leave per hour. If you unfollow a large number of users in a short period of time, your account may be temporarily frozen.
