Frequently Asked Questions

Got questions about our Instagram Downloader? We have answers.

No, they will not. Our tool processes story downloads anonymously. You do not need to link your Instagram account, so your username will never appear in their story views list. Your privacy is 100% protected.
1. Open Instagram and locate the active story or Highlight link (or copy the username of the public profile).
2. Copy the story link or profile URL.
3. Paste it into the SaveVids Story Downloader search bar at the top.
4. Click the 'Download' button.
5. A list of active stories (images/videos) will display. Click 'Download' on the ones you wish to save.
Yes, you can! Our Story Downloader handles Instagram Highlights similarly to active stories. As long as the profile is public, you can download any video or image inside their Highlights folder.
Active stories are only available to download during their 24-hour publication window. If a story has expired and has not been added to the Highlights, it can no longer be downloaded.
No. Due to privacy and access limitations, our tool cannot view or extract stories from private Instagram profiles. The profile must be set to public.
