How to Copy Captions, Comments & Bio on Instagram

Sometimes you may come across captions, comments, and bio on Instagram which you want to copy and save to share somewhere else. Unfortunately, Instagram doesn’t allow users to copy anything from within the app. It would also be a tedious task to type the text manually, especially if it is too long.

Worry not, here we are going to share two simple workarounds that can help you to copy Instagram captions, comments, and bio on your smartphone easily. Well, without further ado, let’s get started!

1. Use a web browser (Google Chrome)

The simple and easy method to copy captions, comments and bio from Instagram is by using the web browser on your phone. You just have to open the Instagram profile or post on the web browser and then you can normally copy any text from there. Follow this step-by-step guide –

1. First, open Instagram app on your phone and go to the profile or post from where you want to copy the caption, comment, or bio.
2. Now you have to copy the link of the post or profile. Simply, tap the menu button (three dots at the top-right corner) and then click the “Copy Link” or “Copy Profile URL” option.
   
3. Next, open any web browser (for example, Google Chrome) on your phone and then open the link you have copied earlier.
