How to Fix Instagram Playback 2023 Not Showing?

Before fixing the Instagram playback issue, ensure you have a steady internet connection and this guide opened on another smartphone. With that being said, let’s start resolving this pesky little error.

Fix 1: Restart Your Device

The first and most easy solution is to restart your Android or iOS device. This issue is not yet reported on PC so we cannot suggest anything. However, if you are having this issue on PC, make sure to clear the browser cache.

Restarting your device fixes many potential issues, such as lags and application opening issues. But keep in mind, when you restart your device, let it be turned off for at least 2 mins and then boot it. We don’t recommend simply restarting the device.

Once your device restarts, open Instagram and check whether the playback 2023 feature is working. If not, move to the next fix.

Fix 2: Clear Instagram App Cache and Data

If restarting your device didn’t solve your problem, you can try clearing Instagram’s cache as this seems to solve a lot of affected users.

Depending on your Android or iOS, clearing the app cache may be different. If you are using an iOS device, go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage, find Instagram, and click on Offload App.

If you are using Android, go to Settings > Storage > Apps > Instagram. Now click on clear cache and data. Once you complete this, open Instagram and check whether everything is working normally or not. If not, follow with the next fix.

Fix 3: Update Instragram

If you haven’t updated Instagram for a long time, this may be the right time to upgrade it. Updating applications solve a lot of underlying problems as developers address major issues. Go to App Store or PlayStore and update your Instagram application.

Fix 4: Reinstall Instagram

If the above didn’t help you, reinstalling Instagram may fix the Playback 2023 not showing issue. On Android, go to Settings > Storage > Apps > Instagram and click on Uninstall. Next, open PlayStore and install it again.

If you are using iPhone, go to Settings > General > iPhone Storage and click on Delete App. Next, go to App Store, search for Instagram and reinstall it.

Fix 5: Instagram is Down

On the off chance, it may happen that Instagram is facing some downtime due to huge activity on the servers. It would be wise to check out DownDetector’s official website if the above fixes are not helping.

Fix 6: Try Another Device

Sometimes it may happen that you are unknown of an issue that is inside your phone. Therefore, it is in your best interest to log into the Instagram app using a different phone. If Instagram Playback 2023 starts showing there, your phone may be at fault.
