How to Change Birthday on your Instagram Account

Photo and video sharing wouldn’t be complete without Instagram. It is a great social platform to share what you are up to. With Instagram, you can connect to the people and things you love. Instagram asks you for the age details to make sure you aren’t an underage user. Also, it uses age details to bring you relevant content. If you have provided the wrong date of birth and want to change it, then Instagram lets you do it. Currently, changing your birthday on the Instagram profile is possible only if you haven’t connected your Facebook profile. If you have linked, Instagram will import the birthday automatically from your Facebook profile. In those situations, you need to change the birthday on your Facebook profile to change the date of birth detail on Instagram.

Note: Remember that you can’t remove the birthday details once it has been updated to your profile.
