According to the company the original feature simply wasn't popular enough and as a result, they have decided to scrap it.
While the map might be disappearing from our screens very soon thankfully Instagram's geotags will still be working.
So while you can still type in a scenic location to see all the lovely photos taken there you can no longer go on to someone else's Instagram and see all their Instagram locations on a world map. Bummer!
We're glad to see we're not the only ones gutted by the news.
what no!! Instagram have taken away photo maps, that was my favourite thing to look at on people's profiles! :((((((((( ?

Why did @instagram remove their photo maps? It was the most interesting feature they offered. pic.twitter.com/exedYZeDTk — Kristyna Kabzanova (@KristyKabzan) September 2, 2016
