Commenting on stories, whether sharing your reaction to what's happening, or providing detailed feedback, is a wonderful way to let an author know if they're doing a good job with their story.
Many Wattpad authors share their work on Wattpad so they can grow as writers, and constructive comments are extremely welcomed, especially when they are specific and given in a supportive manner. Comments are a Wattpad writer's greatest reward and go a long way in encouraging them to finish their stories, so don't be shy about posting letting them know what you think!
Each comment can be a maximum of 2000 characters long.
There are two types of comments:
- Regular comments
- Inline comments (only available on the apps)
Regular comments are displayed at the end of a story part. Inline comments are displayed in the text of the story on the apps, or at the end of the chapter on the web.
You can also delete a comment that you have left, as well as any comments left by others on a story you wrote at any point.
If you've left a comment that is flagged due to the language used, your comment is not reported to Wattpad. It's only flagged to alert others to the content.
