How to download an available Instagram story

Storyview provides a Download link for available photos and videos from public profiles. There is no payment or account registration for this feature.

Save a photo or video

  1. Search for a public Instagram username.
  2. Select Download below a result, or open the story and use its Download button.
  3. Follow your browser’s prompt to save the file. Depending on your device, it may appear in Downloads or a files app.

If the browser opens the file instead

Download behaviour varies between browsers and devices. Use the browser’s save or share menu if it opens the media rather than saving it immediately. Storyview does not require an extra app or extension.

File quality and formats

The available source determines quality and format. A photo may be supplied as JPEG, PNG or WebP; supported videos use MP4. Storyview does not promise that every download is HD or improve the source quality.

If a download stops working

The file link may have expired, or the story may no longer be available. Search again to refresh available links. See why stories are not loading if this continues.

Respect the creator

Downloading a story does not transfer ownership or give permission to publish it elsewhere. Respect the creator’s rights and privacy when deciding how to use a saved file.
