Instagram makes hiding tagged photos from your profile relatively easy, but figuring out how to unhide them can take a little digging. While you cannot unhide multiple tagged photos at a time, you can quickly unhide each individual photo as long as you remember who posted it. This wikiHow article will teach you how to unhide tagged photos on your Instagram profile.
Steps
