Say what?

You wake up the morning after wine night to remember that you went full Facebook aunt on Instagram last night, replying to every acquaintance’s story with an “LOL!” or “looove this!!!” as if the content was posted specifically for you. Or, maybe you voted on your crush’s poll sticker, only to forget what you replied seconds later, unable to find it in your recent DMs. Whatever your reason for wanting to review your story reply activity, you might have found that it’s not always a straightforward process to retracing your digital steps. However, with the launch of Instagram’s recent “Your activity” section in your settings, seeing your Instagram story replies just got a whole lot easier.
Introduced in February 2022, the Your Activity tab allows users to review their time spent, photos and videos, interactions, account history, and more. The interactions section of this feature is especially useful, as it allows you to view all of your comments, likes, and story replies to stickers — and also allows you to manage these interactions. Prior to the launch of this feature, one of the only ways to check on your story replies was to scroll through recent DMs, and there was no designated section for reviewing your answers to stickers.
If you’re in need of a check-up on your reply guy activity, here’s everything you need to know about how to view your Instagram story replies.
If you want to see a story reply that you sent via the direct message bar at the bottom of a story, these will still all be located in your recent direct messages. Simply open your Instagram home page, tap the speech bubble icon in the top right corner of your screen, and scroll to review your recent direct message activity.
To view your story replies to stickers, tap the three horizontal lines in the top right corner of your profile tab on Instagram to open your Settings menu.
From here, tap “Your activity.” The icon looks like a clock with dots along the online of it.
Once you’ve accessed the “Your activity” tab, click “Interactions,” then “Story replies.” This will show you an exhaustive list of how you replied to Instagram stories in chronological order from the most recent. You can also tap “Sort & filter” in the top right corner to sort your responses from oldest to newest, or to search your story replies during a certain time period by specifying a start date and end date.
You can also tap “Select” in the top right corner, and tap to check-mark story replies that you’d like to delete. From there, simply click “Delete” at the bottom of your screen, and Instagram will delete these story replies. These will not only be deleted on your end, but will also be “unsent” from the recipient. (Though the recipient could still view this reply if they opened it before you deleted it.)

Instagram questions sticker in stories is very easy to use. It does not require money, time or other resources. This is his strength.
I also advise you to regularly ask questions to subscribers. And don't be afraid to be intrusive or unoriginal. nine0003
Questions on Instagram is a new joke that people on the social network began to actively use immediately after the feature appeared. A few days ago, we told you that some users have found in the application the ability to ask open-ended questions. So, this is the very feature of questions in Stories with the ability to write an answer to them or ask a question yourself.

If you don't know how to ask a question on Instagram Stories, we'll walk you through. Read our instructions and start testing this cool feature. nine0003

What is it? At the moment, Instagram Stories allows you to ask several types of questions. The first type - you write a question and two possible answers to it. Your subscribers will see the Story with the question and will be able to choose one of the suggested answers if they wish.
This is the so-called survey question.
The second type of questions in Stories are open-ended questions. The essence of this function is that you can post an offer to ask you any question that you receive in Direct. You yourself will know who sent it to you, but if you share it in Stories, the rest will not know the name of the sender. nine0003
Or you can use this function a little in reverse. You can ask a question in Stories and get answers from your subscribers in a personal message. This is very handy if you want to know someone's opinion on any subject, and not hear a monosyllabic answer. How this is done is described in as much detail as possible below.

When subscribers watch Stories, they will see your question. In the corresponding field, they will be able to write a response, and only the sender of the story will know who wrote the response.
back to content ↑
To see the answers to your question in Stories, just go to your story and swipe up. You will see user responses to your question. If you want to share a response, click on it and select the appropriate option. Remember that by sharing a question or answer in Stories, no one will recognize its author.
