At times deleting negative comments on Instagram is tiring. Your posts can have irrelevant comments from spam accounts, your competitors, and sometimes hate comments too.
To keep your posts safe from such comments, you can set an auto-deleting option for the comments. That said, the moment any spam or hate comment is posted, the platform will detect it and delete it.
To enable Instagram to identify such comments and delete all Instagram comments that you don’t want, you will have to provide a list of keywords. You or any other Instagram user will not know that those comments were ever dropped on the post. See how you can set the auto-delete feature for unwanted comments.
-
Step 1: From your Instagram profile section, open the Privacy settings option.
-
Step 2: You will find an option, “Hidden words.” Click that.
-
Step 3: From the “Manage” custom list section, select “Add to List.”
-
Step 4: Enter everything you don’t want users to post as comments. That said, you can include phrases, words, emojis and anything you want.
-
Step 5: Tap on “Add.”
-
Step 6: Again, from the Manage Custom Words List section, toggle the option to Hide Comments.
You will have successfully set up the auto-delete comment feature on your Instagram profile. If someone tries to post a comment with the words specified in the list or their changed forms, it will not be visible.
By doing so, you will not have to go and delete every single comment or find the comments hurting your reputation. You should know that if you are posting comments containing the specified words or phrases, the comments will be visible to all.
