Overview
- The feature, announced Thursday, lets users change their own comments for up to 15 minutes after posting.
- Meta confirmed to The Verge that people can make unlimited edits within that window.
- An “Edited” label appears on changed comments, though other users cannot view earlier versions.
- Only the text can be changed, and in the app you edit by tapping the Edit option shown under your comment.
- Instagram tested the option with some users in March, and the rollout lands during a broader run of product tweaks and legal scrutiny over youth safety.
