How to add non-clickable location tags on Instagram
Source: @itchban Non Clickable Location tag on Instagram
*Update: Instagram has now disabled this feature. You can no longer add custom locations.
Instagram Pro Tip
Ever wondered how other Instagrammers add locations to their images that aren't clickable? You'll see the tagline under their username (where location text should be) but it'll be grayed out and non clickable.
This allows them to add another "sub-caption" in a neat and tidy way. I usually see people tag song's or advertise their website / Snapchat accounts (see above).
It's also especially handy when you don't have any location meta data for that photo and don't want it to show up on your profile's location map.
Solution
It's quite simple:
Type whatever text you want to show up in the location text area.
Add a emoticon in that text.
After that, select "create custom location".
Adding an emoticon (any emoticon) disables your Instagram photo's location data and makes it non clickable.
Just to be safe though, you should double check your profile's location map to make sure it worked. Hope this helps.

Friends! I got some photos (and a vlog) for you from a weeked trip away to Mt Fuji. We head to Mt Fuji for the weekend to chase some Autumn colours (with Fooj in the back obviously). If you have never been to Mt Fuji, be warned that depending on the time of year, it might not always be visible. It is kind of crazy thinking about how huge the mountain is and how it can just hide from you so easily in the clouds. I was once told by a tour guide that Mt Fuji is female because she likes to hide from you and will only appear if you are nice. Click through for more word and some photos to match.
