You may be very calm when answering questions, surveys and others Instagram Stories stickers You know it's not a anonymous function, since the user who raises it can see who votes, writes or interacts. But you are also aware that no other follower of that user can know of your participation. Well, Instagram knows it and leaves it registered. Although only for you.
Yes, as you read it.Your Instagram account knows and leaves a record of each Instagram Stories in which you participate It does not matter if it is the account of someone you follow, or if you go through a third-party account with which you have no relationship. In the end, your account has a history with all those profiles with which you have interacted.
Useful or a danger to your privacy?
Thus, if you get the user who has published a sticker with a question not to make your answer public, your account will continue to give you away. This aforementioned record will leave direct information on the profile in which you have answered, the sticker in which you have participated and even the specific time in which you did so. Wow, you won't be able to escape from it And worst of all: you won't be able to delete this piece of information so that no trace of it remains.
The positive point is that only you will be able to know this information, since it is stored within your account settings. However, is it useful to know where and when you have participated in any activity on Instagram Stories? It is not entirely clear to us. Perhaps as a professional account to count the activity and interactions that take place. But what else can it be useful for?
In return, it leaves a record of activities that, perhaps, you want to hide. It is true that the function does not display this data clearly. In fact, it seems to hide them in a secret corner of the application. But it can get us into trouble if we have to justify every one of our interactions. And yes, we mean jealous couples or stalkers spying on this data. Something morally reprehensible per se, but without the option of being removed puts the privacy of the account user in check.
Where to view this activity log
The feature appears to be slightly hidden within Instagram's Settings menus. A detail that perhaps shows that this information is better not to reveal or know. Be that as it may, here we will tell you step by step where to find it.
- First, enter Instagram and click on the tab of your profile.
- Then click on the three stripes in the upper right corner to display the side menu. And here click on Settings.
- Within the Configuration menu, go down to the Security menu. And, within this, enter the section Access data.
- You may need a few seconds to see the information relevant to your account data. After that you will see a few sections within the same screen. Scroll down to Stories you've interacted with.
- Here you can see the different types of Instagram Stories that are available. The interesting thing is that they are divided by categories: surveys, sliding emoticons, questions, questions about music, countdown and quizzes. Under each of them there is a button See all Click on the one that interests you.
- By clicking on See all you will see the names of the accounts, the date and time of the interaction. It does not show what you voted or what you answered. You can load more results by clicking the See more button.
With this you will have access to the log of all these interactions. It is a very simple report and it does not report the details of the interaction. Not even if there was a conversation or not. Just that you answered, moved the emoticon, answered or chose an option in the stickers of questions and surveys from other users.
