Yes, it is possible to save other people’s Instagram photos to your phone. It is actually quite simple to do.
To save Instagram photos to your phone or other device, simply open Instagram and find the post you would like to save. Then, tap the three vertical dots at the bottom right corner of the post. You will see a number of options pop up, and from there you can select “Save Photo”.
This will then save the photo along with any other images you save from the same post.
You can find all of your saved images by going to your profile page, tapping the hamburger menu at the top right of the page and selecting “Saved”. All of your saved photos will be there, as well as any saved posts, stories, highlights, and more.
It is worth noting that you can only save images that are public, meaning private accounts are off limits. Additionally, you cannot save a post that has been locked by its owner with the “Hide this photo from everyone” feature.
That said, with the instructions provided, it is fairly easy to save other people’s Instagram photos to your phone.
How can I tell who saved my Instagram post?
Unfortunately, there is no way to tell who has saved your Instagram posts. Instagram doesn’t provide the option to track who is saving your posts. However, if you are looking to get an idea of who might be saving your posts, you could take note of your followers who post a lot of comments or respond directly to your posts.
It’s likely that they could be fans of your content and saving it in order to revisit or share with others. Additionally, if you have analytics for your Business or Creator account, you can view who is viewing your post and filter it by ‘Saves’ in the Instagram Insights to get a better understanding of who is engaging with your posts in that manner.
Why can’t I save pictures from Instagram story?
Unfortunately, there is not currently a way to save images from Instagram stories. Stories are designed to be viewed for a limited amount of time, after which they expire and are removed from the platform.
As a way of preserving privacy and supporting the use of Instagram for storytelling instead of hosting content permanently, the app does not allow users to save images from stories. It is important to note that stories on Instagram are inherently ephemeral and meant to be consumed in the moment.
Can people see if you download their Instagram pictures?
No, people cannot see if you download their Instagram pictures. The only way someone can see if you downloaded their photo is if you tag them in the photo or comment on it. If you screenshot or save their photo, they won’t know that you accessed it.
Additionally, Instagram does not track or monitor your downloads or how often you save content. As long as you are not tagging people or commenting about the photo, no one will be able to tell if you accessed or saved the file.
Can Instagram detect screenshot?
Yes, Instagram can detect screenshots. When you take a screenshot of a photo, video, direct message, or story on Instagram, the user who posted the content will receive a notification alerting them that someone has taken a screenshot of their content.
This feature was added to Instagram in 2018, and it affects any content that is shared privately or publicly in Stories and direct messages. When someone takes a screenshot, Instagram sends an alert to the user who posted the content, letting them know that it has been recorded.
The alert includes the username of the person who took the screenshot, as well as a preview of the screenshot. This alert is only visible to the user who posted the content, so it does not appear to anyone else on Instagram.
Do people know if you save their stories?
No, people typically do not know if you have saved their stories. Most social media platforms do not provide the user with an option to be notified when someone saves one of their stories, so the only way for someone to know is if you tell them.
Additionally, some platforms offer the option to save stories but have made it difficult to view who has saved them. Although it is not common knowledge, some platforms have this information available to the person who created the story, but that person would have to specifically search for it.
Can I save someone else’s Instagram video?
Yes, you can save someone else’s Instagram video by using the “Share” button on the video post and then clicking the “Save Video” option. You can then access the saved video through the “Share” tab on the post where you can either delete it or save it to Camera Roll.
If you want to save multiple videos from the same person, you will need to save each video individually. Additionally, you can save someone else’s Instagram video to your camera roll by pressing and holding the video, clicking “Download”, and then saving the video in your camera roll.
