What Does Mute Instagram Notifications Mean?
Muting notifications in Instagram Direct or turning off Instagram notifications means that you won’t get push notifications on your smartphone when you have not opened that app. Thus you won’t get distracted.

However, when you open the app you can view all the notifications including Instagram Direct notifications for new messages.
How To Turn On Post And Story Notifications For A Particular Account?
Do you want to follow a particular Instagram user closely and get push notifications whenever they add a new photo or post? Instagram provides an option for that.

How To Turn On Notifications For A Specific Post?
This could be helpful when you commented on a particular post and might be interested in getting all the notifications for that specific post.
Unfortunately, this feature is no longer available in Instagram’s latest version.
In the past, you were able the receive notifications from a specific post by tapping on the 3 dots present at the top left of that post and then selecting Turn On Post Notifications.
However, based on our recent research, this option is no longer there and has been removed indefinitely by Instagram.
The only feasible way left to receive notifications from a post is by commenting on it and/or viewing it consistently to see updates to the post.
