Instagram Finally Let's you hide Inappropriate Comments

 Instagram has been rolling out several updates recently and I think they have realized,there is no  time to give competition a chance. In July, they rolled out instagram for business, a business profile that works and looks just like Facebook profile and had this 'hide abusive or inappropriate comments' feature, which appeared under the 'Comment Moderation' sub menu of your app settings.

You can turn on the hide inappropriate comments features just the same way you do for your business profile. Just Simply Click on 'Settings' , Click on 'Comments' and the toggle on 'Hide Inappropriate Comments' . SO anytime a word or a phrase is reported as Inappropriate, Instagaram will filter it.

This is a very welcomed development, Instagram itself even describes it as the first feature it's introducing to help people with diverse cultures, religions, races, and more feel safe.

Even though we know trolls have been finding their ways around filters, because some are entirely newly created while other are formed from misspelled slurs, but you can your own custom keywords and phrases to help filters catch abusive words easily.
