VIDEO : Beware Instagram?s New, Embarrassing 'Activity Status'

Instagram has instituted a new ?activity status? feature that shows you the last time someone was actively using the service. To see it, all you have to do is go into your direct messages and look for the little timestamp that shows the last time someone you?ve chatted with has used Instagram. You can see up to the minute or hour when some signed on most recently. For those of you who find this addition somewhat intrusive, thankfully it?s not hard to disable. Just go into Instagram?s settings menu and scroll down a bit until you see ?Show Activity Status.? Tap the toggle next to it to disable the feature. If you choose to hide your activity status, there?s one catch: You won?t be able to see your friends? activity statuses.
