I've been wondering if when you send a DM (direct message) on Instagram to someone, will you will be able to see if they have read/seen what you have sent? Like in text messaging you get an R for if someone has read your message. Is this the same for Instagram? Thanks to everyone who answers! :)

If you are talking to one person in DM then you cannot see if they have viewed it. If you are in a group chat on DM then it will show the users in the chat that have viewed. Something I do (it may sound a bit like spying) is you can look at their Instagram page and look at how many posts they have as well as how many people they are following. If the amount of posts they have or the number of people they follow has changed then it means the user has been active, and they are ignoring your messages. For private accounts, if the number of followers increases they have also been active because it means they were active to accept a follow request.
If you go to the home page on Instagram, then you can select the arrow on the top right corner which allows you to send a DM to someone.
