Part social networking service, part blogging platform, Tumblr is one of the favorite social media platforms of teens and young adults. With its easy to use highly customizable features, Tumblr offers a space to share your interests and hobbies, connect with like-minded people, create an art portfolio, or just blog about what is on your mind with fun videos GIFs. Tumblr users can follow as many blogs as they like. This may cause your feed to become overcrowded with content you don’t care for after a while. Also, you may like to cut ties with annoying bloggers or inactive blogs. If this is your case, we made a step by step guide on how to unfollow blogs on Tumblr.
How to Unfollow on Tumblr Website
Follow these steps to unfollow blogs on your computer:
- Open tumblr.com on your web browser.
- Log in to your account.
- Type in the account you want to unfollow in the search bar on the top of the screen.
- Click on the “Unfollow” button on the upper right of the blog post.
- Click “Yes” to confirm.
- When you see the “Follow” button where the “Unfollow” button was, you have unfollowed the account.
How to Unfollow on Tumblr App
Follow these steps to unfollow blogs in the Tumblr app on your mobile device:
- Open Tumblr App and go to your profile.
- To see the blogs you are following, tap “Following” on the right.
- Tap on the person icon on the right of the blog you want to unfollow.
- Tap “Unfollow.”
How to Mass Unfollow on Tumblr
It is a little bit more tricky to mass unfollow all the accounts you are following. Tumblr doesn’t have an “Unfollow All” option, but if your following count is just too great to unfollow manually, you can use an unfollow script using Imacros for Google Chrome.
- Open Google browser and Imacros.
- Copy and paste the “Unfollow All” code. You can find the code online.
- Log in to your account and open your following list.
- Change the number of loop according to how many blogs you want to unfollow.
- Press “Play Loop” and let the magic work.

I unfollow someone on Tumblr when they start posting ugly content on their feed. Trying to declutter my feed from all inappropriate content.
My main reason to unfollow on Tumblr is ugly content. Once they start sharing things I don’t want to see, I immedieately unfollow them.
