How to create or remove a status
Show a short message on your profile and receive replies.
Where to find it: Profile › Status
How to
- Tap the status area on your profile.
- Write the message and publish it.
- Other people can reply according to your permissions.
- To remove the current status, open its options and confirm; it will disappear from your profile.
Rules and what happens next
- Status is a profile-linked message, different from a Flow post and an Instagram Story. Removing it takes away its current presentation without promising to erase replies already sent in chats.
- People with access can reply through offered controls. Do not include personal information you do not want that audience to see.
Common problems
- Cannot write more: respect the status composer’s displayed limit and shorten text.
- Reply missing: check Messages and status state. A view does not mean the person sent a reply.
