About the Instagram Story viewer
How anonymous viewing works and what you can save.
When you watch a Story in the Instagram app, your name is added to the list of people who saw it. This Story viewer works without your account, so you can watch Instagram Stories anonymously — the owner sees no trace of you.
It is 100% secure to use: no malware, and nothing you download is stored or shared.
It is free, fast and unlimited.
Every Story is saved in its original high quality.
You can view and download Stories completely anonymously.
Type a username and every Story the account posted in the last 24 hours appears, in order. Video Stories download as MP4 and photo Stories as images.
Stories vanish after a day. The only ones that stay are those the owner adds to a Highlight, and those are saved with the Instagram Highlights Downloader.
Private accounts can't be viewed. If an account shows nothing, it hasn't posted a Story in the last 24 hours.
