Deleting unwanted drafts frees up valuable space and streamlines your Instagram experience. It’s like Marie Kondo-ing your digital self, one draft at a time.

Step-by-Step Guide:

For Android:

  3. Tap “Edit” in the top right corner and select the drafts you want to delete.
  4. Tap “Done” and confirm your choice by tapping “Discard Posts.“
