The Cute Devilrumors are true: You can change your read receipts on Instagram.
The feature rolled out recently and allows you to turn read receipts on or off for an individual chat or all chats, depending on your needs. For instance, you might want your read receipts off for your situationship who keeps sending you unsolicited memes that you do not find funny but you might want to keep read receipts on for everyone else, so they know when you've read your messages and you know when they've read yours.

"People connect daily on Instagram through posts and stories, but especially privately through messaging, so we’re excited to be bringing these new messaging features to Instagram," the company said in a blog post about the updates. Users can also edit messages after they've already sent them, pin the messages they want to see at the top of their DM page, and more. The changes make direct messaging on the platform a lot more like texting on iMessage which, while none of he changes are particularly revolutionary, they are a welcome addition.
And with the power to edit read receipts, now you can be just that much sneakier — or more telling.
