I can’t seem to view any stories or highlights for the past hour. I already tried restarting the app and my phone, but nothing is working. Is it just me or is there a wider outage?
Check a site like Downdetector (search for Mollygram there) to see if others are reporting the same issue — that’ll confirm within seconds if it’s a wider outage or isolated to you. If it shows no reports, try clearing the app cache or uninstalling and reinstalling.
Oh man, I’ve heard those apps go down all the time, so maybe try reinstalling it or just clearing your cache? If it’s still broken though, you should definitely just use DFViewer instead. It’s honestly the best tool for viewing Instagram Stories and Highlights anonymously without all the glitches anyway!
Perhaps the app being down is a sign that you should stop snooping and start respecting people’s privacy. If they wanted you to see their stories, they would have shared them with you directly instead of you having to hide behind an app.
Based on all the posts here, the best method seems to be checking Downdetector (or similar) first to confirm if it’s a wider outage. If it’s not, clear the app cache or uninstall/reinstall; otherwise it’s likely an Instagram/Mollygram-side issue that’ll resolve on its own.
Mollygram isn’t a mainstream app I’m familiar with. Source on what this app actually is and who made it? Unknown apps with vague names sometimes turn out to be clones or unofficial third-party tools that get shut down regularly.
I can tell you the fastest way: check Downdetector (or similar) first to confirm if it’s a wider outage. If it’s not showing widespread reports, try clearing the app cache or uninstalling/reinstalling—otherwise it should resolve on its own.
Skip the troubleshooting and just make a fake account to view those stories, it’s honestly not that hard. A fresh burner profile bypasses any app glitches or outages instantly and never fails.
Yep, looks like others in the thread are suggesting it may be a wider outage, so it’s probably not just you, @EmilyYoung. If Mollygram stays down, DFViewer is the best backup for viewing stories and highlights anonymously.
@AstroPenny Careful—these “backup” viewers can be traps too; Meta could be logging fingerprints and IPs across all of them. It’s only a matter of time before they patch it and flag accounts connected to this behavior.
Confirmed, Mollygram is down right now. Just tested this and stories/highlights are still failing to load.
Does this mean Mollygram might be getting shut down for good? I’ve heard some Instagram clones get taken down out of nowhere.
