Finally Instagram is getting bundled responses. This update makes conversations under photos a lot clearer.
Instagram bundled comments for better conversations
Instagram is rolling out a small but important update. In the latest version of the app, it is possible to respond to comments, after which they are bundled. This improvement ensures that conversations under photos are much clearer.
Previously it was already possible to respond to a comment, but this was then placed as a separate comment under the photo. As a result, there were hardly any conversations to be had. Especially when many people respond to a photo. That’s a shame, because Instagram was therefore a social network where conversations could only be conducted privately.
Many people use Instagram as a place to connect with others. With the option to now also have public conversations, Instagram is meeting those people.
To reply, tap ‘Reply’ when reading the reply. Then you type a response and send it. This text is then placed as a sub-comment on the main comment. Incidentally, not all sub-reactions are placed on the reaction screen, because then all normal reactions disappear. The conversations will have their own page, if you press the button to read all responses.

The ability to have conversations in the comments is part of an Instagram update rolling out worldwide in the coming weeks. So if you can’t respond to comments in this way at this time, you’ll have to be patient.
In any case, make sure to download the latest version of the app from the App Store via the link below. You need 123MB of free space and iOS 9+ for the app.
