View and download Instagram Stories

Open available Stories from public Instagram profiles and save photos or videos.

Last updated Sep 20, 2026

Instagram Story Viewer lets you browse available public Stories without signing in to Instagram or providing Instagram authorization.

View Stories

  1. Open the Story Viewer.
  2. Enter a username, @username, or full Instagram profile URL.
  3. Start the search and wait for the available Stories to load.
  4. Open a photo or video to view it.

Download a Story

Use the download option for the Story you want to save. Photos download as JPG files and videos as MP4 files.

Account and content requirements

Only public accounts are supported. You cannot use this tool to open Stories from a private account.

Not needing an Instagram login is separate from EasyComment's own access and credit rules. See Accounts and login.

For Stories saved by a profile as Highlights, use Instagram Highlight Viewer. If content you expect is unavailable, see Content viewing help.
