App to view and download stories from Instagram on your computer.

Stories witness high engagement among popular social media networks such as Facebook, Instagram, and WhatsApp. They are visible only for 24 hours but are most likely to get noticed by your friends and followers. Just like Facebook Stories, Instagram users can easily find out who all viewed their stories.

Perhaps, what if you want to view someone’s Instagram story anonymously? By this, we mean you appear invisible to the profile owner since your name doesn’t appear in the story’s viewers list.

Can I view Instagram stories without them knowing?

While there is no official way to anonymously view Instagram Stories, there are few workarounds though that you can use to secretly watch Insta stories. It comes in handy when you want to stalk or view stories anonymously without letting the person know that you’ve seen their story.

Though there are several online services to view Instagram stories without an account and even download them. However, most of them either don’t work properly or lack features like bulk downloading of posts, Stories, and Highlights.

Thankfully, Qoob Stories, a desktop app available for Windows, Mac, and Ubuntu makes such things a piece of cake. Besides letting you watch Instagram stories anonymously, it offers the ability to selectively download content from Instagram. The content can include photos, videos, Stories, Highlights, and even Tagged posts. Qoob Stories saves the media in high quality and automatically organizes it into dedicated folders for individual profiles. This certainly makes it easier to find the downloaded stuff.

  6. Click the “Download” button.
  7. Optional – Click the settings icon next to the Download button to choose custom download options. Make sure the “Download Stories” option is enabled. how to download stories anonymously from Instagram on computer

Note: It is not possible to download content (including Stories) from Private accounts because only approved followers can see their posts and stories.

Our Verdict

If you don’t mind paying for a subscription then Qoob Stories is indeed a powerful, efficient, and one of the best tools out there. The app boasts a user-friendly interface and a modern design to simplify the task. Moreover, there are various settings that one can customize in the app’s preferences. The only downside is that you cannot save Stories unless you log in to your Instagram account.

    I recommend the story-down site. You can load and view stories without any errors, and even photos and videos can be viewed in high quality. Of course, you can view it anonymously, and the best part is that you know the exact time the story was posted!
