The Comment Auto Reply feature automatically replies to comments on your Instagram posts and reels — helping you engage your audience instantly while reducing the risk of spam detection.
You can customize multiple reply messages, rotate them randomly, and choose whether to apply them to new or already linked posts.

Encourage further interaction – Replies can prompt users to check DMs, follow your account, or join a campaign.
Avoid spam detection – Rotating multiple messages keeps your replies looking natural.
