Q Any tips to easily declutter my following and followers on IG?

—Tavishi, Via Instagram

Unfollow the accounts you never interact with; the accounts you may have followed for a friend’s assignment or to participate in a contest. Instagram has come up with this update where it shows you the accounts you have least interacted with. That’s what you should start with. One can also easily spot bots/fake accounts, those are one of the firsts you should unfollow/block.

Q How do I introduce my parents to the world of emojis?

—Sheena, Mumbai

Introduce the features of the particular app first as not all parents these days are tech-savvy. Be patient and teach them where can one find the emojis, how to plug them in a message and which emoji represents what. The best app for this is WhatsApp. Point out meanings of particular emojis to avoid any awkward situations.
