In 2018, Instagram launched Nametags, a feature that allowed users to find other users’ Instagram profiles by simply scanning Nametags, rather than typing their usernames. Now, Nametags are no longer available, and the photo- and video-sharing platform launched a QR codes feature that works in the same way.
Our guide will show you how to customize your QR code before sharing it with others.
Note: These screenshots were captured in the Instagram application on iOS.
Step 1: On your Instagram profile, tap the three horizontal lines in the top-right corner of the screen.
Step 2: Tap “QR Code.”
You’ll see your QR code and username in the center of the screen (this is the large white box in our screenshot below).
