This wikiHow teaches you how to delete a comment you've made on Instagram and post a new one, using Android. You can't edit your comments, but you can delete your old comment and post a new one to replace it.

Steps

1. 1 Open the Instagram app on your device. The Instagram icon looks like a white camera inside a purple-and-orange box on your Apps list.
   • If you're not automatically signed into Instagram on your device, enter your phone, email or username and your password to log in.
2. 2 Find the post where you commented. This could be a post made by another user, or a picture you've shared on your own profile.
   • Try using the search function to quickly find a user's profile. To do this, tap the magnifying glass icon in the lower-left corner of your screen, and then tap the Search field at the top of your screen.
