How To See First Instagram Message Without Scrolling

Описание: Viewing the first message in an Instagram DM thread without scrolling all the way up can save a lot of time, especially in long conversations. Instagram doesn’t offer a direct “jump to first message” button, but there is a practical workaround using the in-chat search feature. This tutorial explains how to quickly access the earliest message in a chat using the built-in tools available on the Instagram app.

Start by opening the Instagram app and logging into your account. Tap the paper airplane icon (or Messenger icon, depending on your app version) at the top-right corner to open your Direct Messages. Then select the conversation where you want to view the first message.

Once inside the chat, tap the name or username at the top of the screen to open the chat details menu. In this section, look for the “Search” or “Search in conversation” option. This allows you to enter keywords that were used in the conversation. If you remember what the first message said—like “Hi” or “Hey”—type that into the search bar.

Instagram will highlight all instances of that word in the conversation. You can then jump to the earliest occurrence, which is often the very first message. While this method is not perfect (and requires you to guess or remember part of the message), it’s currently the most efficient way to reach the top of a long chat without manual scrolling.

For those using Instagram on desktop, the method is similar—click on the DM, open the user profile or chat settings, and use the search option to find your earliest messages.
