Can I view Instagram Stories anonymously?
The continuous evolution of social media brings more practical features to users every year. This has transformed the way we receive but also share information.
Recently, Instagram is one of the most interesting social networks, especially through its new system of “Instagram Stories”. This concept first appeared on Instagram in 2016. It is an option that allows you to share images or videos for only 24 hours. At the end of the 24 hours, the shares will disappear from the web automatically. Especially since all those who have watched the shared stories will be displayed at the author level.
The question now is whether it is possible to view these stories without notifying the author. In other words, to watch anonymously without leaving a trace.
In principle, the answer is no. Indeed, as the functionality has been configured, this is not possible. But exceptionally, there are some solutions that will allow you to do this.
Using Instagram Story Saver
Instagram Story Saver is an application available on all Android mobiles. You download it
and it is from this application that you log in to watch the stories. The application allows you to have a default list of the last shares made by your friends. It also offers the possibility of doing research if there is a person of particular interest to you.
Use the Chrome IG extension
This solution is intended for those who connect to a computer and more particularly those who use Google Chrome. Of course, you can still download it.
Chrome IG is an extension that allows you to view Instagram stories anonymously. Once the extension is installed, it will appear as an eye directly on your Instagram. The extension will thus allow you to see the stories without showing your names.
Other online services and tools
You also have various online tools that will allow you to view Instagram stories anonymously.
- Storiesig
This is a platform on which you will connect. You enter the username of the story you want to view and you can either watch or directly download.
- Insta Story
All you need to do is go to www.storyinsta.com and enter the nickname of the author of the story sharing. You then press search and the latest shares will appear.
- Weinstag
To view Instagram stories anonymously, you will need to enter the username by removing the “@”. The application allows you to simply view or download at the same time.
- "Sneak Peak"
This technique is unique and requires great care because it requires a certain vigilance.
We start by looking for the story in question. You will need another story alongside that will act as a "snitch". You view the share you searched for while swiping slightly left or right. It is still necessary to keep the screen in this position.
