After years of typos ruining your nostalgic landscapes or the cutest #TBT family photos: rejoice. Instagram finally launched a comment editing feature.
The application is available in Apple's App Store or on Google Play . If you are already a "grammer", download the update and you will be good to go.
As to why this update is being included now, the Facebook-owned company said simply: “When you share a moment to Instagram, a typo shouldn’t get in the way.”
This was apparently one of the most requested updates from the camera-happy community of Instagram, a community who now boasts over 200 million active users . Not surprising, as the app is the most widely-used social media network for photos... after Facebook, of course.
