Instagram doesn’t offer an official anonymous way to view stories. The poster can usually see who viewed it. For private accounts, only approved followers can view stories. You can control who sees your own stories with Hide Story From, Close Friends, or making the account Private. Beware of third‑party apps claiming anonymity—they can compromise your account.
