So, you found an interesting comment on Instagram and you want to copy and share it. But wait, there’s no copy button for comments. Yes, Instagram doesn’t let you copy comments directly from the app but we have some workarounds. Whether you are using an Android, an iPhone, or just scrolling Instagram on the web, we’ve got you covered. Let’s get started.

Copy Instagram Comments on Android

There are two ways to do this. The first one—take a screenshot and feed it into Google Lens and the other one—use the Search Screen or Circle to Search feature.

Take a screenshot of the comment that you want to copy.
Now, open Google Lens and feed the screenshot into it.
Tap on the comment to select it.
Finally, tap Copy.

Instagram Comments on Web (Works on Android and iPhone too)

Copying Instagram comments using the above-mentioned methods is not always accurate, especially when the comment includes emojis or character art. The best way to copy comments is using the web, where you can simply select the text using your cursor (or your fingers) and copy it to your clipboard. Follow the steps below.

Copy the link of the Instagram post or reel whose comment you want to copy.
Paste the link in a browser and turn on Desktop mode.
Now, find the comment that you want to copy and select it using your fingers or the cursor. You might have to zoom in if your using a mobile device.
Tap on Copy.

And… you’re done.
