does instagram tell when you screenshot a story

Instagram does not notify users when someone takes a screenshot of their Stories. This policy has been consistent since Instagram briefly tested screenshot notifications for Stories in 2018 but discontinued it due to negative user feedback. Users can screenshot Stories, Posts, Reels, and profiles without the original poster receiving any notification. The only exception is when a screenshot is taken of disappearing photos or videos in Instagram Direct Messages (DMs) or messages in Vanish Mode—then the sender is notified.
