In a post on the Meta channel, Mark Zuckerberg informed that a comment feature has been added to Instagram Stories, in which users will be able to see comments made by other users on someone’s stories. This is quite similar to Post or Reels, but for a limited time. The platform says that comments will follow the same time limit as stories and will disappear within 24 hours. However, it is not clear whether users will be able to archive them or not.

In the new feature, users can determine whether the comments on their stories are visible to everyone or not. This can be changed through visibility settings. According to a report by The Verge, the comments on Instagram Stories can be seen by everyone or not. Report According to, users will have the option to enable or disable comments as per their preference.
