Instagram Comment Issue in iOS 9
This is a known bug with the new Instagram app (v 7.6.1) that was updated on September 25th.
As you start typing in the comment box, you can only see the first line. Rest of the lines – when you type from the keyboard – are hidden as shown here:
Next, when you hit the “send” button – the entire comment is posted.
Many Instagram users have expressed their frustration on Twitter:
We have reached out to Instagram on Twitter to see if they can acknowledge this issue and fix it in the next update:
In @instagram app, you can't see the words you are typing in the comment box! Fix this please? http://t.co/NIJuwRNDjJ #Instagram #iphone

Alternately, if you would like to read what you are typing, then we recommend you to launch the Notes app in iOS 9. Then type your comment in this app, copy and paste it into the Instagram’s “Add a comment…” box.
Not exactly a “fix” – but that’s all we have for now.
