What Are Instagram Highlights?
Highlights are curated collections of past Instagram Stories that users pin to the top of their profiles. Unlike regular stories, they do not disappear after 24 hours.
Downloading Highlights
Downloading a highlight is slightly different from downloading a regular story. You need the specific link to the highlight album.
- Go to the target public profile on Instagram.
- Tap and hold on the circular Highlight icon you want to download.
- Select "Copy Highlight Link" from the menu that appears.
- Paste that link into our downloader.
- The tool will present all stories contained within that highlight. Download the ones you need.
Note: Large highlights with dozens of clips may take a few extra seconds to fully process and display all available downloads.
