Good to know

  1. The film replies to the operator’s own test comment (’test’) on their own video - the same flow works for comments left by other people.
  2. The film only demonstrates replying to a comment on the operator’s own video; the camera icon appears when you reply to comments on your own videos.
  3. You can record the reply at the length you choose - 15 seconds, 60 seconds or 10 minutes - before tapping Next.
  4. If you change your mind after recording, the Drafts button on the post screen saves the reply without publishing it.
  5. The finished video reply carries the original comment as a sticker, so viewers can see exactly what you are answering.
