Look Back: Story Archive

Look Back is a quiet app for revisiting only your own stories and posts. No feed, no like counts, no notifications. All it needs is the export file from the official "Download your information". Stays on your phone The app has no network connection at all. Your photos, videos, and captions never leave this device. No server, no account, no sign-in. No numbers Likes, views, and follower counts are never shown, even if they're in the data. What remains is the photo, the caption, and the date. Every month has an end When you've seen a month's stories, it stops at "That's all". There is no infinite scroll. How it works 1. In the app's Accounts Center, request "Download your information" (select Posts and Stories, HTML format). 2. Save the zip from the email to the Files app. 3. In Look Back, tap "Import export file" and pick that zip. That's it. Then · Replay each month's stories with tap and swipe, the way they were (videos play with sound). · Browse posts in a grid and open them to swipe through photos with captions and dates. · You can delete the original zip after importing. Look Back is an unofficial app, not affiliated with Meta. It only reads the Instagram export file format.
