    If you’re the one who spends the majority of the time using the Instagram app on the phone, then you must have checked the live video feature. And if you prefer to check Instagram feed through the web browser on your PC or Computer, then you won’t find the web version of the app useful, especially in the case of live videos.

    It is because the Instagram web version doesn’t allow users to watch live videos. There might be users who want this functionality, right? And if you made up so far, then you’re one out of them.

    In case, Google Chrome is your default browser, then fortunately there is a Chrome extension called IG Stories for Instagram available on the web-store that lets users watch Instagram live on Chrome browser on your PC or Computer.

    How to Watch Instagram Live Videos in Chrome and Edge (IG Stories)

    Here’s how you can set up the IG Stories Instagram Chrome Extension on your PC to watch live videos of the people you follow:

    1. First of all, download and install IG Stories for Instagram from the web store.

    Since it is possible to install Chrome extension in the Edge browser, it means you can install IG Stories for Instagram on Edge (computer).

    2. Once the installation of the extension completes, the icon for the same extension will start appearing in the extension area.
