How to Save Stories on Facebook

To save someone’s Stories on Facebook, you need to download some apps on your phone or an extension to Google Chrome, as the social network doesn’t natively allow this option.

  • For Android: A good option is the Save Story for Facebook Stories app. Just sign in with your Facebook account, select the story and tap “Download” in the menu you open;
  • For iOS: Shortcuts is an app that automates various actions on Apple’s system, including downloading videos and Stories on Facebook;
  • On PC: You need to download an extension for Chrome, The Story Saver. After installing, open Facebook in Chrome and an icon will appear in the story you watch: just click and download.

It is important to note that there are several apps with the function of downloading videos and stories, but you need to be careful when entering your Facebook login information, as you will share this data with the app. You may also read our guide to recover your hacked Facebook account.
