Frequently asked questions
Why can't I download some Stories?
Stories from private accounts — and anything that requires being logged in — can't be fetched. Only public Stories work.
Will the poster know I saved their Story?
This tool doesn't sign in, so it doesn't register as your account viewing — but treat public content respectfully.
Is it legal to download Instagram Stories?
Downloading your own uploads, public-domain or Creative-Commons material, or content you have permission to use is generally fine. Re-posting someone else's Instagram content can breach copyright and Instagram's Terms of Service — keep it to personal, fair-use or rights-holder use.
