Have you ever sent a message on instagram and got it all wrong at first? Most times when you send a direct message on Instagram, you may not always get the right word spelling at first and this has always been a problem to many.
Luckily, Instagram recently now allows you to edit already sent messages within the period of 15 minutes.
What this means is simple, if you intend sending a hello message to a follower on instagram and you mistyped Hello! to ” Heoll! ” and you have already sent the message. Instead of initially deleting the message completely, you can now edit that particular error or mistyped word on instagram.
