How do I comment or add to a previously asked question? - Daisy - 11-10-2012 01:16 AM
I previously asked a question and have gotten a couple anwsers, how do I reply to those a answers or add something to my question? I can't figure it out! P.S. I'm using mobile on a iPhone.

First, you must switch to desktop mode.
As to responding to answers, you don't directly. YA is not a chat room or Facebook. You have two options:
1. E-mail or IM the user through their profile.
2. Wait until you pick the BA and add comments for each user. Probably only the Best Answer will see it since they only get a notification.
The ONLY exception is that you can add additional details to your question for clarification of the question. Do not call users by name doing this or it will be deemed chat. This options seems to fit your situation.

There are 4 ways,to be exact:
-->Email the user(s) you want to respond to(only possible if both you and that user Emailing options are enabled).
-->IM the user(s) you want to respond to(only possible if both of you and that user IM options are enabled).
Provided that they allow their Emailing options.To enable this:
-->Go to your"My Activity"
-->click"Edit My Preferences"
-->click"Privacy & Communications"
-->Tick this/these box/es next to
"The Answers Community can contact me:
(box should be here)Via Email (Your address will remain private)
(box should be here)Via Yahoo! Messenger (This will make your messenger and Yahoo! ID visible to the Answers community)"
-->click"Submit" to save your setting.
Go to their profile and if you find there are 1 or 2 enabled emailing options,then you can send message(s) to them
something like this:
"IM (ID)"
"Email (username)"
-->When you choose a Best Answer,you can give a feedback about their answer/comment.(You need at least 60 minutes/1 hour to choose a Best Answer)
-->Via"Additional Details.However,this one is risky as it can turn your innocent question(s) into a chat question(s)/forum(s) and have higher chance of getting reported.The chance become much higher if you put sarcastic remark(s) and insult(s) to other user(s).
Take care.
