About Stories Downloader.
Stories and statuses disappear after a day, and screen recording them loses quality. Stories Downloader saves WhatsApp statuses and Instagram stories, highlights and reels directly to the phone’s gallery.
WhatsApp statuses you have viewed are saved without any login, and an auto-save mode can keep new ones as they appear. Instagram content is saved after signing in through the official Instagram web view. Saved files are organised into WhatsApp and Instagram folders inside the app.
