Fortunately, there are some methods that can help you view their stories without them knowing about it. One of the most common methods involves the &#8220;half-swipe,&#8221; which allows you to view someone&#8217;s story without them being aware. This involves half-swiping right from their previous story to the next without letting go. In this way, the user remains in the current story, and Instagram will not register that they&#8217;ve viewed it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Airplane_Mode\"><\/span>Airplane Mode<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Do you want to know how to see someone&#8217;s story on Instagram without your friend knowing? Then read on to discover how you can do it. In order to sneak a peek at someone&#8217;s story on Instagram, simply log into their account and switch to airplane mode. Next, you must wait for the story to load. Once it&#8217;s loaded, simply tap on the story and watch it without letting the person know that you are doing it.<\/p>\n<p>The first step in the process is to turn on Airplane mode on your iPhone. This way, when you open the Instagram application, you won&#8217;t be listed as a viewer. Then, you can screenshot any story you want to share. After you&#8217;ve done that, you should restart the app. After a few minutes, re-open the app and log in to your new account.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Anon_IG_Viewer\"><\/span>Anon IG Viewer<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you&#8217;re sick of being a creep, there&#8217;s a simple way to find out someone&#8217;s story without them knowing. You can use an anonymous Instagram viewer like Anon IG Viewer to view someone&#8217;s story without them knowing. The program has a search bar on the home page where you can input the person&#8217;s username and see their latest posts. You can even download their stories!<\/p>\n<p>This app is free to use and has an easy-to-use interface. All you need is a username, and you can then download the content and save it to your computer. StoriesDown is another excellent tool for anonymous viewing Instagram stories. It doesn&#8217;t require you to log in, but it will allow you to download IG stories. StoriesDown is a paid alternative, but it also allows you to save photos and videos from Instagram. Another anonymous Instagram story viewer is Dumpor.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Viewing_older_stories_in_Airplane_Mode\"><\/span>Viewing older stories in Airplane Mode<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>To view older stories on Instagram, you must first switch your mobile device to airplane mode. This setting allows you to view older stories without letting other people know that you&#8217;ve viewed their story. To access older stories, open the app, tap on the top bar to view your Stories and then tap the &#8220;Airplane Mode&#8221; button. Your view counts as an unpublished story and your view counter doesn&#8217;t show up on the user&#8217;s profile.<\/p>\n<p>In order to view older Stories, you must first enable Airplane mode on your iPhone or iPad. You can turn it on by tapping on the Airplane Mode icon in the Control Center or the Quick Settings on your Notification Shade. Afterward, swipe up to exit the Story viewer mode. If you&#8217;ve saved more than one Story, you can also screenshot it for later viewing. When you&#8217;re done viewing an older Story, be sure to close the Instagram application. Otherwise, Instagram won&#8217;t know that you viewed it and you won&#8217;t know if you&#8217;ll see it again. Then, you can reinstall the app.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Viewing_stories_in_Airplane_Mode_without_an_internet_connection\"><\/span>Viewing stories in Airplane Mode without an internet connection<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One way to view Instagram stories without an internet connection is to turn your phone&#8217;s airplane mode on. By doing so, you can prevent the app from tracking what you&#8217;re doing. When you go into airplane mode, you will not be able to make calls, send or receive messages, or browse the internet. However, this doesn&#8217;t mean you can&#8217;t view your stories while on airplane mode.<\/p>\n<p>You can view stories that have been hidden by the user&#8217;s account. To do this, turn your mobile phone into airplane mode, view stories, and then close the app from running tasks. When you turn your phone off and on again, you&#8217;ll see that Instagram is removing you from the list of story viewers. You can then go back to view your stories as normal. But, you must remember to turn your phone off before doing so, as it will disable all notifications for that user.<\/p>\n<p><iframe style=\"margin: 0px auto; display: block;\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/yrWIboQUm68\" width=\"397\" height=\"222\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen=\"allowfullscreen\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>How Can I See Someone&#8217;s Story on Instagram Without Them Knowing?
