Instagram does not show users' birthdays to their followers or connections.
Unlike platforms like Facebook, which often notify users of their friends' birthdays, Instagram maintains a different approach to birthday visibility. This means that unless a user explicitly shares their birthday information in a post or story, it remains private.
Here's a breakdown:
- No Public Birthday Notifications: Instagram doesn't send out birthday notifications to other users on the platform.
- User-Controlled Sharing: Users have complete control over whether or not they want to share their birthday information.
- Privacy Focus: This approach aligns with Instagram's emphasis on user privacy and control over personal information.
Essentially, if you want people to know it's your birthday, you'll need to announce it yourself through a post or story. Otherwise, your birthday remains private on the platform.
