Save and Organize Posts
Instagram’s Save feature allows you to bookmark posts, but you can also organize them too. You just need to tap the bookmark icon under a post to save it, then select Save to Collection. In addition, you can also create themed collections for inspiration, recipes, or anything you want to revisit later.

Another essential feature of Instagram is that it automatically hides offensive comments posted on a video or photo. You just need to go to Settings and then click on Privacy. You will find an option of Hidden Words. Now enable Hide Comments from it. You can also add custom keywords to filter out specific words or phrases that you don't want to see.
Close Friends List
If you want to share Stories with only a select group of people, then Close Friends list is perfect for this option. You can add people to your Close Friends list, and whenever you post a Story, you can choose to share it exclusively with them.
Mute Accounts
One of the important feature is to Mute accounts if you don't want to unfollow someone on Instagram.Tap on the three dots next to any post or go to the person’s profile, and you’ll find the option to mute their posts, Stories, or both.
