Are you trying to find Instagram photos you're tagged in? When someone tags you in a photo, the post instantly appears in the Photos of You section of your profile. If you've changed your settings to require manual approval for photo tags or opted to hide a tagged photo, it only takes a few seconds to approve and display these photos on your profile. This How.com.vn guide will teach you easy ways to show tagged photos on your Instagram profile using your Android, iPhone, iPad, or computer. As well as how to unhide, approve, and control who can tag you in photos.

How to See Tagged Photos on Instagram

It looks like a square chat bubble with an outline of a person inside it. This will display all of the Instagram posts you’re tagged in.
