How to check Instagram Post, Stories and Reels Without an Account?
Can you view anything on Instagram without an account? The simple answer to this question is yes, however, there are a few strings attached. In order to do this, you can use the following method, either type – ‘instagram.com/username‘ on your web browser. For this to work you will have to know the correct username of the profile you want to view. If you are not aware of the exact profile name, you can type in ‘(username) Instagram‘ and get all the profiles under the name you have entered.
If you simply want to view a post or reel your friend has sent you, but you do not have an account or don’t want to use your personal account to view it, copy the link and paste it on the web browser.
While using both these methods, It is important to understand that, although you can view reels, comments, and posts, you will be prompted to either sign up or log in, time and again. Also, keep in mind that you can see the posts, comments, and likes, of only those accounts that are public, the private ones will stay hidden. If you want to view the posts of someone whose account is private, you will have to send them a follow request. You can send a request, from a valid account so you will have to either use your account or a fake one to do this.
Another way of viewing any account’s posts is by using Third-party sites, for example Imgsed and InstaNavigation. You can make use of these sites at your own risk.
