Instagram highlight viewer.
Watch and save any public highlight.
Highlights are the stories an account pins to its profile, and Instagram only plays them inside the app, one tap at a time. Type a handle and every highlight opens as a grid you can watch and save.
- ✓Every highlight, every story
- ✓Photos and videos
- ✓Save as JPG or MP4
- ✓No Instagram login

The problem
Why highlights are hard to look at
A highlight is a slideshow: tap, wait, tap again. There is no way to see what is in it at a glance or jump to the fifth story.
Open a profile in a browser without signing in and Instagram puts a login screen over it. Highlights don't play at all.
Instagram has no download button for someone else's story. A screen recording gets you the progress bar and the reply box with it.
The solution
One handle in, every highlight out
igtrackr reads the highlights a public account publishes and lays each one out as a grid of its stories: photos as images, videos with a play button. Nothing is re-encoded; what you save is the file Instagram serves.
- ✓Every highlight with its cover and title
- ✓Every story inside it, in order
- ✓Videos that play in the page
- ✓A save button on each story
How it works
Interactive preview
What a highlight looks like here
Paste one or more Instagram links. This tells you what each one points to and strips the tracking part (igsh, utm) so you can share or open a clean link.
Cleaned links show up here.
This runs in your browser: nothing you type or paste here is sent to us, and it needs no account. The tool at the top of the page is the part that reads Instagram.
- 01The row on top is the account's highlights, with their covers and titles.
- 02Pick one and every story in it appears below, in order.
- 03Videos play in the page. Every story has a Save button.

FAQ
Instagram highlight viewer questions
What people ask before typing a handle.
How do I view someone's Instagram highlights?+
Type the handle above and press View highlights. The account's highlights appear as a row of covers; pick one and every story in it opens as a grid.
Can I download Instagram highlights?+
Yes. Each story has a Save button: photos save as JPG, videos as MP4. The stories still belong to the account that posted them, so use them the way a public post allows.
Can I view a private account's highlights?+
No. Instagram shows a private account's highlights only to the followers it approved, and no tool can show them. igtrackr tells you when an account is private instead of charging you for nothing.
Can I see current stories, not just highlights?+
This tool shows highlights — the stories an account pinned to its profile. For stories from the last 24 hours, use the Story Downloader.
Do I need an Instagram account or password?+
No. You never connect an Instagram account or enter a password. The lookup runs on our servers, not from an Instagram account.
Is it free?+
Yes, with a free igtrackr account: no card and no Instagram login. Free accounts get 3 runs of this tool; Pro and Agency get more every day. A lookup that finds the account private or with no highlights does not use a run.
Comparison
Against the other ways to look
Security & privacy
Private by design
A highlight viewer only deserves trust if it is boring about privacy. This one reads public data, asks for nothing, and leaves nothing on the account.
We never ask for Instagram credentials — not to view, not to save, not for any feature on the site.
Highlights on a public account are visible to anyone on Instagram. We show what Instagram publishes, nothing more.
The lookup runs on our servers, not from any Instagram account, so nothing is done in your name.
A private account's highlights are visible only to its approved followers. No tool can show them, and a site claiming otherwise wants your login.
