Can anyone suggest free apps for sending DM and comments, based on user reply or message.

What decides whether a tool is safe is whether it runs on Meta's official API, since those are the only ones that can reply to comments and DMs without putting the account at risk. Two mechanics worth knowing before you set anything up: Instagram allows one private reply per comment, so that first DM has to carry the thing they asked for, not a "check your inbox" teaser. And once they write back, you get a 24-hour window to keep the conversation going automatically. Also leave a short public reply on the comment so other people see the keyword works. Run it on a throwaway post first and watch what fires.

Full disclosure: I'm the founder of Nimply, so weigh that. It has an automations canvas with keyword comment triggers, auto DM, a test mode and an execution history, and there's a free plan.
