How to See Liked Posts on Instagram on Computers and Laptops

And if you are using the web version of Instagram on a desktop device, such as your Windows computer, Mac computer, laptop, Macbook, or Chromebook, it’s also doable to find likes on Instagram as a collection.

Since viewing posts you have previously liked is a feature exclusive to mobile phone apps, and it’s not available on the web version of Instagram.

There are 3 easy workarounds for you to view liked posts on Instagram on PC and Mac:

  1. Use a third-party Instagram layout application for desktop, to use app-like Instagram on computers
  2. Use a third-party web browser extension like Layoutify that changes the layout of the web-based Instagram in your web browser.
  3. Use an Android emulator to run the Android Instagram application on your computer.

Given that the first method is simpler and more intuitive, we’ll go with the Instagram layout changer desktop application in the following tutorial. What we’ll be using is a free program called Grid, which presents app-like Instagram layouts on desktop devices.

Grids is a safe application that is also available from the Apple App Store.

The steps for viewing liked Instagram posts on PC differs from what we’ve done on mobile phones, so make sure to follow the tutorial below to get started.

Why “Posts You’ve Liked” on My Instagram App is Gone?

If you find the feature for viewing posts you’ve liked is gone from your Instagram app, chances are that you were using an older of Instagram app, on which the Like Posts feature was located at Settings > Account > Posts. When the Instagram app is updated to the latest version, the feature is moved to a different spot.

Now you should check “Posts you’ve liked” from the “Interactions” section in your Instagram “Activity log”. For more details, follow this guide to access your liked post on the latest version of the Instagram app.
