Search…
The search view allows you to find specific profiles, locations and hashtags, as well as quickly accessing previously saved search items via search bookmarks.
Switching Search Modes/Types
To switch between search types, simply click on the tab Top, People, #Tags, or Places button.
To switch between search modes, use the 
 menu when viewing the Top or People search types.
Search Bookmarks
When viewing a profile, location, or hashtag, you can add the item as a search bookmark, giving you quick access to it later from the search view.
Adding / Removing Search Bookmarks
To toggle an item (profile, location, or hashtag) as a search bookmark, perform one of the following actions:
Click the bookmarks 
 button in the title bar when viewing the details of a profile, location, or hashtag.​
Use the View > [Add|Remove] "X" to Bookmarks menu bar item.
When viewing your list of search bookmarks, click the 
 button.
Sorting Search Bookmarks
By default, search bookmarks are sorted in date added order. To change the ordering, use the Sort by… option under the 
 button in the title bar.​
Importing / Exporting Search Bookmarks
To import or export your search bookmarks, use the [Import|Export] Bookmarks… option under the 
 button in the title bar, or under the File > Bookmarks menu bar item.
Suggested Searches
If you do not have any search bookmarks, the search view will default to showing you Instagram's suggestions.
We recommend you use Flume's search bookmarks feature to save commonly searched items, as suggested searches can change at any time based off various account-factors.
To remove a suggested search:
Click the delete 
 button next to the suggested user, hashtag, or place you wish to remove.
Right-click on a suggested user, hashtag, or place and select Hide from the contextual menu.​
Recent Searches
Your recent searches are populated by Instagram based off your previous searches for that account. We recommend you use Flume's search bookmarks feature to save commonly searched items, as recent searches are limited by Instagram to just a few items.
To clear your recent searches, see profile settings.​
Nearby Location Searches
To search locations that are near to you:
Click the Places search type tab.
If you have previously searched for a term, press the clear 
 button to remove the current search term.
Click the Nearby Places row in the list of results.
You must allow Flume access to your location if you wish to use this feature. If you have previously disabled access, you can enable Location Services access via System Preferences > Security Privacy > Privacy > Location Services.
