Steps:

- When I open Instagram and open my messages you can see that my inbox is currently normal. And if I swipe from right to left on a message there are just two options, to delete or mute the message.

- In order to hide a DM you need to create another inbox, to do this you will first need to have a creator account.

- To make your account a creator account, tap on your profile icon in the bottom right corner of the homepage to get to your profile page.

- Tap on the three lines button in the top right corner of your profile page.

- Select settings from the menu.

- In settings select ‘account’

- Scroll to the bottom of the account setting and tap ‘switch to professional account’.

- Tap continue four times and then choose a category, it doesn’t matter which one.

- Make sure the ‘display on profile’ toggle is switched off and then tap ‘Done’ at the bottom of the page.

- Make sure that ‘creator’ is selected and then tap ‘next’.

- Turn off the toggle for promotional emails and then tap ‘next’.

- Tap ‘not now’, then tap the ‘x’ in the top right.

- Now from your profile page, tap on the three lines button in the top right again, and again select ‘settings’

- In settings tap on ‘notifications’

- Now tap on ‘messages and calls’

- Under the messages heading, you need to make sure that the middle option is selected ‘from primary only’ this means that you will only get notifications from your primary inbox.

- Now go back to the Instagram homepage and tap on messages in the top right.

- Your inbox will now be split in two, primary and general. You will get notifications about new messages in your primary inbox but not in your general inbox.

- To move a chat to general swipe from right to left on it and then tap ‘general’ that chat will then be moved to your general inbox and if someone was to look at your messages or if you screenshot your inbox, it would appear like there was no chat with that person.

- To see the messages in general just tap general at the top of the page.

- To move chats back from general to primary, swipe from right to left on the chat and then tap ‘primary’. They will reappear in your primary inbox in the same order as before.

- If you want your inbox to go back to normal and not have two sections and want to have a regular Instagram account and not a creator account then tap on your profile icon in the bottom right corner of the homepage.

- Tap on the three lines button in the top right corner of your profile and select ‘Settings’ from the menu.

- In settings tap on ‘account’ then tap on ‘switch account type’ in blue.

- Tap ‘switch to personal account’ and then tap ‘switch to personal accountl’ on the popup.

- Your Instagram account will now be a personal account again and if you go to your messages you will see that there are no longer two sections and it is back to normal.
