How to Use GIFs as Comments on Instagram Post

By Consultants Review Team Monday, 29 April 2024

You'll be happy to hear that you can add GIF comments to any Instagram post straight from your iPhone or Android smartphone if you think that animated pictures can say more than words. If you use a web browser to visit Instagram, this option is not available, but you may still remove a GIF remark if necessary.

The greatest thing is that Instagram has a built-in collection of GIFs for you to pick from, making it simple to enrich your comments with animated expressions. You don't need to download any additional apps in order to search and utilize GIFs.

How to use GIFs as comments on Instagram

Locate the post here: Find the post on which you want to comment first. Select the Comment icon linked to that particular post.

GIF access options: You may see an icon for GIFs only in the Comment area. Select the GIF icon, located on the right-hand side.

Choose a GIF: Here, you have two choices:

Highlighted GIFs: Pick one of the available pre-selected GIFs.

Look for a certain GIF: Use the Search box at the top to select a GIF from GIPHY that fits a specific subject or idea. Type a term or phrase associated with the desired GIF.

Insert the selected GIF: Tap on the GIF that you've selected once it's ideal. The GIF you've chosen will then instantly show up as a comment on the post.

Option 1: To erase a GIF remark, tap and hold it. There will be a menu; choose the Delete icon (which looks like a trash can).

Option 2: Tap the Delete icon after swiping the GIF comment from right to left.

Verification and undo: Following deletion, a little red notice will show up at the top. You can press this message to reverse the deletion if you change your mind.

The Instagram post will now successfully contain your GIF comment gone.

How do I remove a GIF comment from the Instagram platform?

Instagram will take down the GIF remark from the post right away.
