Frequently Asked Questions About Instagram Stories & Highlights

No. SaveAnything requests the media server-side without an Instagram account session, meaning your profile never appears on their story viewers list.

Active stories can only be downloaded while they remain live on Instagram. However, if the user added the story to their permanent Profile Highlights, you can download it anytime.

Copy the link of the Highlight reel or profile, paste it into SaveAnything, and select the individual photos and videos you wish to save.

There are no download limits. You can save as many stories and highlights as you want, completely free.
