Instagram’s Highlights feature allows users to curate and display selected Stories on their profiles beyond the standard 24-hour lifespan. Regarding viewership, it is crucial to understand how Instagram handles data related to those who interact with this content. Specifically, when someone views an Instagram Highlight, the account owner may be able to see a list of accounts that have viewed each segment of the Highlight.
Knowing whether an account’s visit to view content is recorded and potentially accessible is important for user privacy and understanding the platform’s dynamics. This awareness affects content creators’ strategies and viewers’ behavior. Understanding view visibility enables more informed use of the platform.
