    While having a Business or Creator account can show you metrics including how many people saved and shared your posts, it's not possible to see who saved or shared your posts.
    • If you're looking for an alternative, your only option is to ask your followers if they've saved your posts. You can do this by posting a story , creating a reel, or even creating a new Instagram post to poll your users. There is no guarantee that the person(s) who saved your post will respond, but it gives them the option to send you a direct message.
