Once you view a profile’s Stories on Instagram, your name will be added to the viewers list for each slide. In this way, the user who uploaded the stories can know exactly who viewed them.
There used to be several apps that let you anonymously view and even download other profiles’ stories. But due to changes in Instagram’s policies, it is now necessary to sign in when using such apps. The moment you enter your credentials, watching stories is no longer anonymous.
Luckily, there’s another trick you can use to view a user’s stories without leaving a trace. We’re talking about the StorySaver website, which you can access in any browser using the following URL:
- https://www.storysaver.net
Once you are there, you need to type the user’s name in the text box and click the button Download! click. In our case, we will use the official Instagram profile to test how it works.
