Can someone get your IP from Instagram Messages?

Understanding the Basics: Internet Protocol & Instagram

In the simplest terms, an Internet Protocol address (IP address) is a numerical label assigned to each device connected to a computer network. In regards to Instagram, a widely voiced query is if one can acquire another individual's IP from Instagram messages. The answer? In terms of the Instagram platform itself, no. Instagram doesn't permit users to see another user's IP address. Sending or receiving messages on Instagram doesn't expose your or the recipient's IP address to each other. Instagram encrypts these details for privacy and safety. Learn more about safeguards around your IP here.

The Role of Proxies: Safeguarding Your Online Presence
