Instagram has launched “Sensitive Content Control,” which will allow the app users to decide how much sensitive content shows up in Explore.

Instagram in its Blog post wrote, "We believe people should be able to shape Instagram into the experience that they want. We’ve started to move in this direction with tools like the ability to turn off comments, or Restrict someone from interacting with you on Instagram. Today we’re taking another step and launching what we call “Sensitive Content Control,” which allows you to decide how much sensitive content shows up in Explore."

Instagram also have rules about what kind of content it shows in places like Explore. The rules are known as Recommendation Guidelines. These guidelines were designed to help ensure that it don’t show sensitive content from accounts people don’t follow.

This new feature will give the users control over sensitive content. Users can decide to leave things as they are, assuming they are satisfied with the experience today, or can adjust the Sensitive Content Control to see more or less of some types of sensitive content.

Instagram said, "Everybody has different preferences for what they want to see on Explore, and this control will give people more choice over what they see."
