Instagram puts at your disposal multiple ways to post photos and videos. There are the normal publications, the Feed, the Reels, the IGTV and of course the stories. Most people prefer stories because they tell you exactly how many people have seen the photo or video.
On the other hand, from the Feed, Reels and from IGTV you cannot know this type of thing exactly. Next, you’ll be shown how to use Instagram platform insights to view story engagements. In addition, we will also explain how to view your story interactions from a computer.
How to use Instagram statistics to see Instagram story interactions?
Instagram Insights is a feature that lets you measure all sorts of things, including story views and reactions to your photos. Thanks to Instagram statistics, you can know if the things you are posting are increasing your popularity through reactions and views, or if it is decreasing.
To activate Instagram statistics and thus measure the views of the stories, you just have to follow the entire process that will be mentioned below:
- Sign in to your Instagram account.
- Go to your account and enter the ‘Profile’ section.
- Then press the ‘Edit profile’ option.
- Within ‘Edit Profile’ look for a section called ‘Professional Account’.
- And choose the one that says ‘Business’ or ‘Company’.
- Then from there it goes to enter the statistics of the account profile.
- Tap ‘View Stats’ to see stats for stories and all other posts.
With all this you will be able to visualize the statistics of each one of the publications that you upload within the account. Now, to do all these kinds of things, it is important that you download the Instagram program on PC or else the mobile application from the Play Store.
What methods are there to see your interactions on an Instagram account from mobile?
There are two other ways in which you can see the interactions your Instagram stories receive, both of which are much simpler than the one mentioned above.
With the ‘Settings’ option
From the settings you can see which people have seen that story if you go to the ‘Story files’ section. To enter that place, you must go to the account settings, enter ‘Privacy’, click where it says ‘Stories’ and click ‘View shared content’.
In this way you can also see the stories within Instagram, but it is a very complicated process to tell the truth. Since if you go to the top of the application, look for your story in the status bar and press it, you will be able to see the reactions it has received along with the views.
In the ‘Direct’ section
From the ‘Direct’ you can also see the interactions that your story has received recently. All you have to do is enter the messages section, where it will show who has reacted to your photo as if it had sent you a message.
When you want to see what the reaction that other users have placed on your story, you just have to open that notification in the form of a message and you will see the reactions along with the number of them. It should be noted that if you like the stories of a certain person you follow, you can choose to mute them.
In this way, you will not need to unfollow that user or even block them from your Instagram account.
How to view Instagram story interactions on a computer?
From computers you can also see the reactions your stories receive within the Instagram platform. All you have to do is enter your account by logging in from the Instagram program or from the web. Then click on the image of the story that you have added and click on where it says ‘Views’.
Sometimes when you tap on the image or video preview you’ve added to your story, the appearance of the option to review integrations will change. You may see an eye icon or the word ‘Viewed’. No matter what, once you hit that icon you’ll see which people opened your story and who replied to it.
How to see the interactions of another person’s stories on Instagram?
There is no trick that allows you to just view another user’s story interactions. The only way to see this kind of thing is by going into that person’s Instagram account. However, the only way for you to gain access to another account is to ask that person for the account password.
