 Application.OpenUrl ("instagram://user?username=USERNAME");

you should use this custom URL scheme instead of http

Have you tried Application.OpenURL () ? It opens a link in a browser - thats what documentation says, but as with many links like youtube.com etc. Android phones can ask with what you want to open the link. I personally haven't tried this but it seems like a way to do this kind of thing. Usage:

 function OpenMyUrl () {
         Application.OpenURL ("http://unity3d.com/");
     }

thank you for the response, i tried it before with the same assumption but Instagram app wasn't in the list (only browsers), strange enough, putting a photo's URL will get the Instagram app in the list but that doesn't work the same way for the profile URL.

Hey there , you can use this code :
1-add this c# code to the project 2-add it to an empty object in the scene , 3-make a button and call the rateandinsta script and paste your instagram link as : instagram://user?username=yourusernameENJOYIT

 using UnityEngine;
 using UnityEngine.UI;
 using System.Collections;
 
 public class rateandinsta : MonoBehaviour {
 
         void start() {
         }
 
 
 // this is how you will be able to add your instagram link 
         public void SocialButton(string url) { Application.OpenURL(url); }
 
 
 
 }
