Save Instagram Stories From Others On Your iPhone

Saving Instagram Stories from others on your iPhone can be a bit tricky, but don't worry, we've got you covered. You can save others' Instagram Stories by using the "Save" button that appears at the bottom of the screen when you view a story.

To access this button, you need to have the story open and be in the viewing mode, not in the story list mode. This is a crucial distinction, as the "Save" button won't appear if you're in story list mode.

You can also save others' Instagram Stories by taking a screenshot, which will automatically save the story to your camera roll. However, be aware that taking a screenshot will also notify the story's owner that you've saved it.

If you want to auto-save every story to your camera roll, you can turn on this feature from the story settings. To do this, access "Story Settings" by clicking "More" in the bottom right of your current story, then click "Story Settings." In the "Saving" section, toggle the "Save story to Camera Roll" option.
