To activate the manual filter settings, go to your profile and tap on the icon with three horizontal lines. Select the “Settings” option and then the “Privacy” tab. Then, turn on the toggle switch next to “Hide comments containing these words” to enable the feature. You can also add a list of words or phrases to hide. You can also set a “Block” option to prevent any users from commenting on your posts or stories.

If you find a comment that isn’t being hidden and you want to delete it, swipe left on the comment and then tap “Delete.” If the user’s account has been restricted before, they won’t be able to comment again until you unblock their account.

Although Instagram offers significant comment control options through the app and through Meta Ads Manager, the only way to effectively manage all of your organic content is with a third-party social media conversation management tool like BrandBastion’s Lite Platform. This type of software allows you to track and hide comments that are a threat to your brand image, and it can even notify internal teams to respond directly within the hidden thread or through a private channel.
