Share Instagram Comments on Stories to Boost Engagement

New Instagram Feature…Sharing Post Comments to Stories

I've been waiting patiently for this feature to arrive and now it has! You can now share comments that your audience has left on your posts to stories.

This is great for Instagram engagement for a few reasons:

  1. It says a big 'Thank You' to your audience for leaving comments on your content.

  2. By sharing the comments on your stories you are giving them extra exposure too.

  3. It will encourage more engagement & comments on your future content as they may be shared. 

Use this feature to highlight:

  • Positive comments or feedback

  • A good question that you can answer in your stories

  • A funny or entertaining comment that your story audience might appreciate

How to use it: 

  • Find the comment you want to share on stories

  • Press & hold the comment to reveal the menu (see image below)

  • Tap ‘Add to Story’

  • You will now be taken to the stories page, where the comment will be shown alongside the content they commented on (see image below)

  • You can move the comment around the page so it’s a in place that you are happy with

  • Write any additional comments/add GIFs etc

  • Publish
