Hi, we're StoriesGlance
Updated
So, who’s in charge here?
StoriesGlance is a few of us, working independently and going by the site’s name instead of our own. No holding company hiding a stable of look-alike sites. We don’t put personal names up here, so fair enough if you’d rather judge us on stuff you can check yourself: how the viewer behaves, what it won’t do, and whether a real person writes back. Spot something on this page that’s out of date? Tell us at the email below and we’ll fix it.
Why bother building it
Picture it: you’ve got a seller to pay, a Friday coffee with someone from an app, or an interview on Tuesday, and you’d like to glance at their Instagram beforehand. Making an account for that alone is a lot. Typing your password into some page that offers to “sign in on your behalf” is worse. We wanted a middle path that wants nothing from you, so StoriesGlance shows the stuff a profile has already shared with everybody, and that’s where it stops.
Lines we don’t cross
We leave locked profiles alone; nobody can open them anyway. Your password for Instagram is none of our business, so we’ll never request it. Searches aren’t saved, and we don’t churn out pages about random people to catch search traffic. Selling data isn’t on the menu, partly because we collect nothing worth a cent. Profiles do reach you via an outside data company, and our privacy page lists every detail it receives.
Not Instagram, not Meta
We have no tie to Instagram, and no link with its owner, Meta Platforms, Inc., either. The Instagram name is theirs.
