Can you save an Instagram Live video after it ends?

 Instagram does not provide a built-in feature to save Instagram Live videos after they end. However, there are a few workarounds you can use to save your Instagram Live videos for later viewing or sharing:

### 1. Record Your Screen:
- One option is to use a screen recording feature on your mobile device to capture your Instagram Live video as it's happening.
- Most smartphones have built-in screen recording capabilities, or you can download third-party screen recording apps from the app store.
- Start the screen recording before you begin your Instagram Live session, and stop it when the Live session ends. This will save the entire Live video to your device's camera roll.

### 2. Use Third-Party Apps:
- There are third-party apps and services available that claim to allow users to save Instagram Live videos. These apps may have limitations and may not always be reliable, so be sure to research and read reviews before using them.
- Some apps may require you to provide your Instagram login credentials, so use caution and ensure the app is trustworthy before granting access to your account.

### 3. Enable Auto-Archive (for Business Accounts):
- If you have an Instagram Business or Creator account, you can enable the "Auto-Archive" feature for Instagram Live videos.
- To enable Auto-Archive, go to your Instagram settings, select "Privacy," then "Story Controls," and toggle on the "Save Live Videos" option.
- With Auto-Archive enabled, Instagram will automatically save your Live videos to your Instagram Story archive after they end. You can access and download these videos from your archive for later viewing or sharing.

### 4. Share to IGTV:
- As an alternative, you can choose to share your Instagram Live videos to IGTV immediately after they end.
- During your Live session, tap on the "Share" button at the bottom of the screen and select "Share to IGTV." This will save your Live video to your IGTV channel, where it can be viewed and shared like any other IGTV video.

### Note:
- It's essential to respect the privacy and rights of others when saving or sharing Instagram Live videos. Always obtain permission from participants before recording or sharing their content, and be mindful of Instagram's community guidelines and terms of service.
- Keep in mind that Instagram's features and policies may change over time, so be sure to check for any updates or changes to the platform's Live video functionality.
