If you are preparing for an actual flight, ensure you have these "stories" ready for offline use:
: Turn on Airplane Mode to disconnect from the internet. download-airplane-mode
: Use apps like Pocket to save web articles as clean, offline text. If you are preparing for an actual flight,
: Once the content is fully downloaded to your device, you enable airplane mode. : Tap and view the story
: Tap and view the story. Since you are offline, the app cannot send a "read receipt" to the server.
: Open Instagram and go to the person’s profile. Let the story bar at the top load/buffer.
: Because the device cannot connect to the server to receive the "return" command, the book or movie stays accessible locally until you reconnect to Wi-Fi. This allows you to finish a long story at your own pace without blocking the next person from borrowing the digital copy. Preparing an Anonymous Instagram Story View
