Instagram has announced that it is rolling out new major changes including the ability to delete offensive comments in bulk, to keep the platform a more positive place for users. Instagram is introducing a major change on its app that will give you more control over who is engaging with your content. Facebook's photo and video sharing platform will now let you block multiple users from commenting or delete multiple comments on posts at once, without wasting your precious seconds. It will also let you pin comments on top and stop others from tagging you in posts or comments.
"First, we're launching a new feature to help people manage multiple unwanted interactions at once. We know it can feel overwhelming to manage a rush of negative comments, so we've been testing the ability to delete comments in bulk, as well as block or restrict multiple accounts that post negative comments," said Instagram in a blog post.
You can enable this on both iOS and Android app versions by following simple steps:
- Tap on a comment in a post.
-Tap on the dotted icon in the top right corner.
- Select Manage Comments.
-Choose the comments you want to delete. You can choose up to 25 comments at once.
- Tap More Options to block or restrict accounts in bulk.
