10 Best Apps to Download Stories From Instagram and Whatsapp

Stories have come to stay. Virtually all social media platforms now support sharing of “Stories,” although different platforms call it different names (fleet, status, etc.). Among all the social media platforms people use to communicate across borders, the most popular ones are Instagram and WhatsApp.

Basically, “stories” are meant to disappear after 24 hours, or when the poster manually deletes them. More so, there’s no default way to save these stories to your device so that you can view/watch them over and again, or even reshare with your audience. Thus, the need for a story saver app is quite important for some people.
