If you friend someone, can you see their stories?
Yes, generally. For instance, on Snapchat, when you add someone as a friend, you are able to view their stories. However, there are always exceptions. The user might have chosen to limit the audience for their stories to a custom list which may or may not include you even though you are friends.
It depends on the platform. On some social media platforms like Instagram, if you become friends (follow each other in Instagram's case), you can usually see their stories. But some people might have privacy settings that restrict who can see their stories even if you are friends. For example, they can set it to only be visible to a select group of people.
Not always. In Facebook, for example, just because you are friends with someone doesn't mean you'll see their stories. They could have set their story privacy to 'Only Me' or a specific custom audience that doesn't include you. Also, if there are glitches or bugs in the app, it might prevent you from seeing the stories even when you should be able to as a friend.
If you add someone as a friend, can you see their status updates?
Not necessarily. In Twitter, for example, following someone (equivalent to friending in some ways) doesn't always guarantee you'll see all their tweets (which can be considered as status updates). They could be using features like protected tweets where only approved followers can see their updates. And some people might also use third - party tools or settings within the app to limit the exposure of their updates to a particular audience.
If you restrict someone, can you see their stories?
No. When you restrict someone on most social media platforms, it usually means you limit their access to your profile and your content. In return, you also won't be able to view their stories or much of their content as the restriction is a two - way block in terms of privacy settings. It's like building a small fence between you two where neither can cross over to the other's side easily.
If you block someone, can you see their stories?
No. Blocking is a more extreme form of cutting off contact. When you block someone, you completely sever the connection, and you cannot view any of their content, including their stories.
Can you see someone's stories if they restrict you?
No, you can't. If someone restricts you, their stories won't be visible to you.
Can someone see if you watch their pinned stories?
No, generally, on most social media platforms, the person who pinned the story cannot see specifically who has viewed their pinned stories. The viewing metrics usually only provide general information like the number of views, not the identities of the viewers.
Can someone see if you screenshot Insta stories?
As of now, Instagram doesn't have a feature that alerts the story creator when someone screenshots their story. However, this might change in the future as Instagram often updates its features. But currently, you can screenshot without anyone knowing.
Can you see if someone screenshots Insta stories?
Instagram doesn't provide a feature that allows you to see if someone has screenshot your stories. This is mainly for privacy reasons. Some people might feel uncomfortable if others knew they were screenshotting. Also, from a technical perspective, implementing such a feature could be complex as it would involve constantly monitoring user actions in a very invasive way. So in short, no, you can't tell if someone screenshots your Insta stories.
If you block someone, can they see your stories?
No. If you block someone, they can't see your stories at all. Blocking completely cuts off their access to your profile and any content you post, including stories.
If you restrict someone, can they see your stories?
If you restrict someone on most social media platforms, they usually cannot see your stories. Restricting is a way to limit someone's access to your content, including stories.
If you block someone can they see your stories?
No. Blocking is a more extreme measure than muting. Once you block someone, they are cut off from all your content, including your stories. It's like putting up a wall between you and that person's access to your social media presence. So if you don't want someone to see your stories, blocking is the way to go, but remember that it also stops them from interacting with you in other ways as well.
