We’re certified Instagram experts, as people who spend basically all their spare time scrolling through the picture-sharing app – but there’s a feature that not even seasoned pros were aware of.
There’s a way for you to see every single comment you’ve made on Insta (yep, even the super embarrassing ones), and it’s fairly easy to do.

You can see all your activity on the app by opening your profile, heading to the menu in the top right-hand corner and selecting ‘Your activity’.
Go to Interactions followed by Comments. From there, you will be able to see all your comments you’ve ever made, with your most recent comments towards the top.
If you dare see your historic comments, you can tap on sort and filter and choose oldest to newest under Sort by to view old comments first.
There are also options to filter which dates you want to trawl through.

If there are some comments in there that are sending you over the edge (eg – telling your cheating ex that you'll never love anyone else but them from back in 2015) you can delete your historic comments. All you need to do is tap select, choose the comments you’d rather were erased from public record, and then press delete.
Pretty nifty, huh?
In other revolutionary tech news, you can now crop your ex out of some of your favourite photos.

The tech wizards at Google have worked their magic, with the new Google Pixel 6 series now including a tool that allows you to remove unwanted objects (and people) from pictures altogether.
Titled the ‘Magic Eraser’, the tool removes the selected item and fills the blank space with details and colour that matches the photo’s background – so it’d look as if the object in question was never there.
