Instagram keeps a record of your login activity. But it deletes details about a login session when you log out. Sometimes, we access our Instagram accounts on other devices and forget to log out.
Luckily, Instagram lets you see your login activity and delete particular entries from it. You can end your login session on any device using the device on which you are currently accessing your account. This feature helps you protect your account privacy.
