Well, Instagram copied the Stories from Snapchat; they have become the main attraction of this platform, stories that have reached other social networks but have not been as successful as Twitter, where they were available less than a year until they were disabled.

If you don't have an account on this platform but have never wondered if it's possible to view Instagram Stories without an account, you've come to the right place. Instagram Stories are small videos or sets of images only available within 24 hours of posting.

After this time, The history option is no longer available to everyone.

If you already have an Instagram account and want to browse the Stories that go up to this platform, you can do so without creating one; just make use of the different platforms that we show you below.

Best of all, no one will know that we've had access to their stories, as this platform stores a log of all the people who see the stories that users post.

All of these platforms are available via the web, so you'll need to use the browser you have installed on your mobile or tablet or use a computer.

Please note that we will only be able to access Stories from public profiles. If you want to see a private profile story, you can forget about it.

There is no way or any website that allows us to access Instagram Stories that are posted by private accounts. If you find a website that can help you with this, you need to get your credit card details.

While it is true that in the Play Store, we have some applications that allow us to perform this function unless you use it regularly, it is not recommended to install, as part of an idea, we could say perverse and are usually associated with malware, viruses, spyware and more, not to mention a large amount of advertising they include.

If you already have an account on Instagram

If you have an Instagram account but don't want the app to tell the person who posted a story that you've been one of the people who saw it, you can use the tricks I show below.

With the Hiddengram extension

Websites that allow access to Instagram posts are usually very short-lived, so it's more than likely that some of the links I've posted in this article will be unavailable in the future.

One solution to these web pages is to use the Chrome and Microsoft Edge extension called Hiddengram, an extension that allows us to browse Instagram completely anonymously.

To Activate airplane mode.

The most popular and well-known trick for viewing Instagram Stories without the person knowing we've done it is using our smartphone's airplane mode at the right time.

The first thing we need to do is open the app and wait for all the stories to show. Once loaded, they are available on our device, so we can activate airplane mode by sliding the control center down.

Once we've seen all the stories that interest us, we need to close the app before reactivating the airplane mode, as otherwise, the app will count our playback and include us in the list of people who have seen the post.

Method 1: Standard tools

To create an inscription in a story, it is quite possible to limit yourself to standard tools, using a separate text adding function, drawing tools, or stickers to choose from. Each tool is directly linked to the story editor from the official app.

After going to the story editor on the top panel, tap the "Aa" button to turn on the text add tool. Alternatively, you can simply tap anywhere on the screen.

Add the text you want to see on the photo. The font can be changed using the bottom panel, while the slider on the left is responsible for the size.

The color of the text changes through the palette available by clicking on the marked icon. Here you can also add a background, each of which is stylized strictly according to the font selected earlier.

You cannot combine different styles within the same text layer. However, at the same time, there are no restrictions on the number of elements of a given type, which creates partial variability.

To save the final result, use the checkmark in the upper right corner of the screen. After that, the publication is made by analogy with any story since the text is just one of the elements of the editor.

Option 2: Drawing Tools

As ig stories website notes to create text in a story using the drawing tools, prepare the content and tap the button shown in the screenshot in the application editor. After that, you can immediately select one of the brushes, set the color, and also change the size.

You can change various parameters right in the process of writing the text. Unfortunately, there are no auxiliary elements for creating inscriptions.

As before, saving is done using the checkmark in the corner of the screen. However, you can always go back to the editor and make changes before publishing stories.

The last way to add captions is to use the stickers provided by the application in huge quantities for free; some of them contain thematic text. To go to the full list, tap the sticker icon on the top panel and select the appropriate option in the pop-up window.

If you want to manually enter the text, the poll sticker, hashtag, mention, question, or test sticker is optimal. Each of the options has a number of its own settings, such as changing the color by touch and can also be placed at any point in the story.

As an additional solution, you can use the search in the sticker section to find a specific signature. As a rule, there are only animated inscriptions in English, which cannot be edited.

Saving the final result, in this case, is not required since the placement is made immediately on the main page of the editor. It should not be forgotten that the presented methods can be combined with each other.

Method 2: Third-Party Applications

If you are not satisfied with the standard features of Instagram, you can always use third-party apps for Android or iOS that provide different design styles. We will consider only two completely different options. However, there are many alternative programs in the Play Market and the App Store.

Option 1: Fontify

This miniature application is a library of various fonts that allows you to create and copy text, which is subsequently used in the official client. To use the program, install using one of the links below, and after opening, fill in the text field "Text to copy."

From the list of available options, select the appropriate one by single-touching the corresponding line. After that, click "Copy" and make sure that the pop-up notification "Text copied" is displayed on the screen.

Create or go to a pre-prepared story on Instagram, select the "Text" tool by analogy with the first method of the instruction, and hold down any part of the screen for a few seconds. To add copied characters, use the "Paste" button above the text input field.

The screen will display text in the style that was selected through the software in question. Of course, you can apply various effects without restrictions, whether it be positioning, scaling, changing colors, and so on.

Option 2: Snapseed

The Snapseed app is a complete alternative to the standard Instagram story editor and provides many interesting and, not least, free text styles. Download the program and use the "+" or "Open" button on the main page to proceed to the selection of a background image while making sure to provide access to the files in the device's memory.

Additionally, you can use "Settings," available to open through the menu "..." on the main screen. For the most part, this refers to the quality parameters of photos after processing.

Use the file manager to select the image you want to use as the background. Unfortunately, only static images are supported here.

Once on the editor page, make changes if necessary and go to the "Tools" tab. From the list presented, select "Text."

Tap anywhere on the screen to place the base pattern. After that, double-tap on the block that appears and fills in the text field at your discretion.

After completing the save using the OK button, you can immediately familiarize yourself with the result. If you are not satisfied with the color of the text, you can touch the first tab on the bottom panel and select the appropriate shade from a fairly extensive palette.

On the next page, from the same menu, you can change the transparency of the template. What's more, you can click the Invert button to paint over most of the background, leaving only the text content.

If you want to change the design style, go to the last tab and select the appropriate option, whether it's just a font or a full template. There are quite a lot of options available here. However, some may be blocked due to the lack of Cyrillic support.

When you're done editing stories, tap the checkmark in the bottom right corner of the screen. To publish the result to Instagram, click "Export" and select "Share" in the pop-up window.

From the available options, tap "Stories" and, once in the official application, make changes using standard tools. For example, if the photo is rectangular, you can scale it.

Please note that the content may be distorted due to quality at high magnification. Saving the result is done by pressing the button with the image of the arrow.
