An average Instagram user sees hundreds of posts on the photo and video-sharing platform every day. Unless you actively save Instagram posts you wish to return to or like them, you might have a difficult time trying to see the same post again. The good news is that Instagram has an easy way to let you view all posts you have liked so far. And not just that, we will also detail how to see posts that your friends have liked on Instagram.

See Your Friend’s Liked Posts on Instagram
While we have discussed the steps involved to see posts you have liked via your account, some of you might be wondering if there is also an option to see what all your friends have liked on Instagram. In fact, Instagram had a “Following” tab that listed all liked posts until October 2019.
Although we don’t have a method to check liked posts of others right now, reliable app reverse engineer Alessandro Paluzzi recently spotted that the company may be working to bring back this feature behind the scenes. We will have to wait and see if it materializes though.
- Scroll through their posts, and you will see “Liked by
” above the post’s caption if your friend has liked the post. If you have multiple mutual friends with this third person, you could also tap the like counter to view the complete likes list. Needless to say, the person should either have a public profile, or you should follow them for this method to work.
