You&#8217;ll need to reach the last page of the app before posting your photo. From there, you&#8217;ll need to click on Advanced Settings. Scroll down to the bottom of the page until you find Turn Off Commenting. You can then turn it on again when you want to receive comments.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Chrome_IG_Story_extension_is_a_great_option_for_hiding_Instagram_comments\"><\/span>Chrome IG Story extension is a great option for hiding Instagram comments<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to hide your Instagram comments, the Chrome IG Story extension is the way to go. It requires you to have Instagram installed on your desktop before you can install this extension. After you install the extension, you can view Instagram stories anonymously. Then, you can download videos from Instagram without worrying about unwanted comments from other users. You can even delete Instagram comments in order to avoid being targeted by hackers.<\/p>\n<p>The History of Chrome IG expansion offers many useful features. Installing this extension on your computer will make it available on your profile and in the upper right corner of your browser window. Click on the icon to open it. You can then view the list of your Buddy Stories or select a live video. This extension also allows you to view comments that were made on previous posts. When you have finished hiding comments, you can now post comments again.<\/p>\n<p>You can also hide comments while watching live broadcasts on Instagram. This is possible by installing the Chrome IG Story extension. This extension can only be used on desktop. However, if you want to hide Instagram comments while watching live broadcasts, you should use the desktop version of Instagram. If you don&#8217;t have a desktop version, you can try IG Story for a Source.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Disable_comments_on_Instagram_if_you_dont_want_followers_or_the_general_public_to_respond_to_your_post\"><\/span>Disable comments on Instagram if you don&#8217;t want followers or the general public to respond to your post<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When it comes to posting on Instagram, you can choose to disable comments on each individual post or on all of them. You can do this either before you post or after you have made your post live. If you&#8217;re a professional who wants to avoid public relations disasters, you can disable comments on all your posts and allow just your followers to respond to your posts.<\/p>\n<p>If you don&#8217;t want followers or the general population to respond to your posts, you can choose to disable comments on Instagram. You can limit the number of comments and block specific words and emojis. Alternatively, you can choose to make comments visible only to those you approve. In either case, it&#8217;s important to ensure that you have sufficient space to respond to the comments before you delete them.<\/p>\n<p>Disabling comments on Instagram is easy. To do this, you just swipe left on a comment and tap the gray pushpin icon. This will send a notification to the commenter. Afterwards, you can delete the comments you don&#8217;t want to receive. If you don&#8217;t want followers or the public to respond to your post, you can also delete the comments and reactivate them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Hide_inappropriate_comments_from_Instagram_Live\"><\/span>Hide inappropriate comments from Instagram Live<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;ve been wondering how to hide inappropriate comments from your Instagram Live broadcast, you&#8217;re not alone. Many other users have the same dilemma. It can be extremely frustrating to receive inappropriate comments during your live broadcast, but there are ways to avoid the embarrassment. To avoid getting harassed by rude comments, it&#8217;s helpful to know how to filter out specific words and phrases from comments that you can&#8217;t possibly reply to.<\/p>\n<p>One way to keep offensive comments off your feed is to use Instagram&#8217;s advanced comment filter. This feature automatically filters out comments that contain offensive phrases or words. By default, this feature is turned off. However, you can manually turn off this feature to filter out comments that contain specific words or phrases. You can also select &#8220;Filter most reported words&#8221; to hide comments. By doing this, you&#8217;ll avoid any slanderous comments from others, allowing your followers to see the content that you want them to see.<\/p>\n<p>One way to block comments from Instagram Live is to turn on the &#8220;Hide Unsolicited Comments&#8221; feature. It&#8217;s a simple feature that hides the words and phrases you don&#8217;t want people to see. It will be shaded grey and not visible to anyone. This feature will prevent unwanted comments from triggering alerts or annoying viewers. In addition to that, it keeps the annoyance level down and will ensure that your livestream is not interrupted by angry comments.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How to Turn Off Comments on Instagram If you don&#8217;t want followers or the general public to leave you comments on your posts, you can learn how to turn off comments on Instagram.
