# IGWatcher

> IGWatcher is a free, browser-based anonymous Instagram viewer. View and download any public Instagram account's stories, posts, reels and highlights in original quality — without logging in, without an app, and without ever appearing in the viewer list. No password, no account, no record kept of you.

## Key facts
- Anonymous: you are never logged in through IGWatcher, so there are no read receipts and you never show up in anyone's "seen by" list.
- Full viewer: stories, posts, reels, highlights, full-size profile photos, and public follower/following/like counts.
- Free, runs entirely in the browser, available in 21 languages, works with public accounts only.
