When you make an audio or video call to your friend, it appears on your chat page. Just like chat records, call logs are just a part of the chat page. But with the new update, Instagram added a new section as “Calls”, where you can see all the incoming and outgoing calls. You can also clear the call history if you want. If you don’t know how to delete Instagram call history permanently, this article is for you. 

 

In this guide, you will find the solution to get rid of the history that junk the “calls” section in your Instagram. 

 

Method 1: How to delete your Instagram call history permanently inside your chat? 

 

Unfortunately, there is no way to particularly delete the call history available within the chat. The only way to delete is you have to delete the entire chat. 

Here is how you can do it;

• Log in to your Instagram account. 
• Go to the message section by clicking on the ‘Rocket icon’ in the top right corner. 
• Long press the chat that you want to delete the chat history. 
• You can see a popup. 
• Click the ‘Delete’ option. 

 

That’s it! Now your entire chat will be cleared along with the call history. 

 

Method 2: How to delete Instagram call history in a private account or public account in the ‘Calls’ section?

 

If you are using the recent version of Instagram, you can see the “Calls” option beside the messages section. There is an option to clear the call history. 

 

Though it is not possible to clear all the calls in the call history, you can delete them one by one. Here is how it works, 

 

• Go to your calls section inside your Instagram account. 
• Long press the call history that you want to delete. 
• A popup will appear.
• Select Delete in that popup. 

 

And now your call history will be deleted. Remember that, if it is deleted once, it can be restored. It won’t ask for confirmation either, once you tap on delete, it will be deleted. 

 

 

Bonus Method 

 

You can make the chat and call history disappear automatically with a single click. This feature is called Vanish mode. Once you enable this for a particular chat, the message will disappear once the receiver reads your message. 

 

Your chat will always look empty if the receiver reads your message.

 

• Open your message section on Instagram. 
• Go to the required chat. 
• Click on the chat header and enter the profile info. 
• Now you can see the option “Vanish mode”. 
• Enable it. 

 

So now you would have figured out a way for your query on how to delete your Instagram call history permanently. 

 

The above-suggested methods work well on both Android and iPhone. So what’s more? Your privacy is just restored in simple clicks.
