To not save Instagram photos to the camera roll, there are a few steps you can take. The first step is to open the Instagram app on your device. Once you are on the home tab, click on your profile icon located on the bottom right corner of the screen. After that, open the three horizontal lines present on the top right corner of your profile. You will find the settings option there. Click on the settings option and then scroll down until you find the “Original Posts” option.
Under this option, you will see the “Save Original Posts” toggle button. You need to toggle this option off, which will stop saving the photos to the camera roll. This way, any new photo or video that you post on Instagram will not automatically save to your camera roll.
