Can you watch someone’s live without them knowing?

Answered by Ricardo McCardle

It is possible to watch someone’s live video on Instagram without them knowing. One way to do this is by utilizing the IGTV feature on Instagram.

Firstly, it is important to note that when someone goes live on Instagram, the video is typically available for viewing only during the live session. However, if the person chooses to save their live video, it can be accessed later in their IGTV section.

To watch someone’s live video discreetly, you need to wait for some time after they have finished their live session and saved it to their IGTV. The exact time frame may vary depending on when the person chooses to upload the video, so you may need to periodically check their IGTV section.

Once the video has been uploaded to IGTV, you can simply access their profile and navigate to their IGTV section. Look for the video in question and click on it to view it. Since the live video was saved and uploaded to IGTV, the person who originally went live will not be able to see who viewed their video. This ensures that they won’t know that you have watched their live video after it was saved.

It is important to mention that this method only works if the person saves their live video to IGTV. If they choose not to save it, the video will not be accessible after the live session ends. Additionally, it’s worth noting that the person may still receive notifications if you interact with their live video, such as leaving comments or liking the video.

You can watch someone’s live video on Instagram without them knowing by waiting for them to save it to their IGTV section and then accessing it at a later time. By doing so, you can view the video without the person being aware of your presence. However, it is essential to respect the person’s privacy and use this method responsibly.
