Instagram Highlights Management FAQs
We’ve included this section to answer more of your questions about Instagram Highlights.
Can you see Instagram Highlight Stories without a poster knowing?
No, you can’t secretly view highlight stories. However, there is a way to see someone’s Story without specifically getting identified. You can create a new Instagram account and watch the Highlight from that newly made account. They can’t prove it’s you unless you use your likeness.
However, if an Instagram account is private, the stories and highlights become the same, so you would have to send a follow request to view them.
Can I see who viewed my Instagram Story that I posted in Highlights after 24 Hours?
Yes, you can view everyone who saw your Instagram Story because you posted it in Highlights. However, you can only see the viewers, and the view counts for 48 hours; then, those two elements are gone forever. You can still always view the highlights until you delete them.
Can you see how many times someone views your Instagram Highlights Story?
No, you can’t see how many times someone sees your Instagram Highlights. Instagram only displays view counts and who saw them, not how many times they looked at it. The person who looks at your Story could see it a million times, and you’d never know. This scenario is probably for the best.
Can someone see if I viewed their Instagram Story or Highlights Story without following them?
Yes, Instagram Stories will show anyone who views your Story, followers or not, although you shouldn’t stalk them. If you want someone not to know it’s you, make a different account without your photo or take the plunge and be their follower anyway!
