What is an Instagram bio?
An Instagram bio is the short description at the top of your Instagram profile — up to 150 characters, including spaces, emojis and line breaks. It sits under your name and username, above your posts, and it is the first thing a new visitor reads before deciding whether to follow you, message you or tap your link.
