How to respond to the comment in Instagram?
Content
There are several ways to answer the comment in Instagram, since this social network has a mobile version and a full one. Let's take a closer look at how to do this.

To begin with, we consider this issue in general
Despite the fact that mobile versions are usually more popular, the full version is also quite in demand, and the interfaces for both of them differ from each other, so you should consider this task separately for each case.
With mobile version
Under publications, you can leave comments regardless of previous ones, and also answer them. Sometimes the exchange of comments grows into user interaction or even dispute. You can leave a message to an individual user, or all together. In the latter case, simply do not specify the name of the addressee, or specify a few of those to whom you are addressing the message.
Among other things, there are such functions as editing a comment, changing the order of words and adding smiles or text after publication, responding to bot messages. In the operating system only ordinary smiles are working, as in mail-mail, they are not provided here. Also, you can not copy text.
Steps of action:
- In the Instagram application under each publication there is a comment button.
- When you press it, a whole list of previous comments appears before you. You can see what people wrote before you.
- At the very bottom you will find a text input field. Here it is necessary to write the comment to the publication.
- Now click the button to the right of the "Publish" comment, or it might just be a blue button with a check mark, depending on the version of the application.
- Done! You commented on the publication.
It happens that a person accidentally deletes a message. Then a problem arises as to how to recover the text that was left. Let's fix the situation.
Return the written, but just deleted, comments can only be immediately after the error. At the top of the screen a red window pops up, which you need to click on, then the comment will return. If you have already closed the comment line, and you did not find the red window, you will have to write the text again.
There is no comment editor as such, it only works with publications. You probably ask how you can fix your message? To add something to the published text, we copy it, then delete it, and re-insert it into the text field. Eliminate errors and publish.
Through a computer
Most computers today have a Windows operating system, so consider how to respond to a comment in the Instagram from a computer, specifically with this software. Here everything is a bit easier than on the free mobile version, as both the publication and the messages are initially on one page.
To understand how to reply to a comment in Instagram, you need to do the following:
- Find the line to enter text to the right of the photo or video under the other comments.
- Type the text. You can also set smilies that match the text.
- Now, in order to send, you can use the Enter button on the computer.
- Your comment has been submitted.
It is important to remember that the system can be overloaded or there may be malfunctions in its operation, so do not be afraid if your text does not appear right away. Try refreshing the page or wait a while.
How to respond to a specific person's comment
With mobile version
Using the mobile version of Instagram, you can answer the comment:
- In the same way as described above, you need to find the message button and open the Instagram comments list.
- Then you can answer the person in two ways: click "Reply" under his comment, or enter his login manually after the "@" icon. When you press "Reply", then in the text line the login appears automatically.
- Write the answer.
- Send as described above.
- Now the addressee will be notified that you responded to his comment.
Similarly, you can indicate in your text the login of the user who is not written under this photo, if you want to show him the publication or being guided by any other purpose. Do not put emoticons between the @ sign and the login, so the mention of the user does not work.
Through a computer
To address a comment to a particular person is much more convenient through a mobile application than via the web version of Instagram. There are several reasons for this:
- In the application it is possible to open the whole conversation under the photo separately, and therefore it is impossible to track the comments of the conversation in the Instagram.
- In the web version there is no "Reply" button, so you need to type the login each time manually. It takes a lot of time, and you can accidentally make mistakes in the recipient's username, after which he will not see the message in his notifications and may not read it.
But there are pluses: through the PC you can copy the text in the Instagram. When asked how to copy, the answer is simple: put the cursor, hold down the left button and drag the mouse to the end of the copied element. Then right click and copy using the option from the list that appears.
Nevertheless, it is possible to respond via a computer, if there is no telephone at hand:
- Open the publication and click on the text line on the right.
- Enter the "@" icon. This allows you to insert a link into the Instagram-text. Without it, the link to the account will not work.
- Immediately without a space after the icon, enter the user's login. You can enter several at once, only before each one must necessarily "@".
- Write the message and press Enter.
Thus, leaving and editing a comment in Instagram is quite simple. This is a task that any even novice social network user will cope with.
