Instagram adds comment editing with 15-minute limit

Instagram has introduced a long-awaited comment editing feature, allowing users to correct typos and make changes within a 15-minute window after posting. While edits will be visible to others, the original comment content will remain private. This update, which only applies to text and not accompanying photos, aims to improve user experience and address common frustrations. The feature was reportedly spotted in testing by some users prior to the official announcement. This move comes as Meta faces increasing scrutiny over its platforms' impact on young users, with recent legal challenges concerning child safety and addiction.
