Instagram Dashboard

Turn your logged-in Instagram feed into an automatically refreshing, full-screen dashboard.

Instagram Dashboard turns your logged-in Instagram home feed into an automatically refreshing grid with Stories, likes, comments, and a full-screen media viewer. FEATURES • Shows post captions above comments beside photos and videos in the media viewer, with a comments button beside each post’s likes, on-demand pagination, expandable replies, and a button to hide or show the panel. Remembers your panel visibility choice across posts and page reloads, and loads hidden comments only when you show them. On narrow screens, captions and comments appear below the media. • Displays photos, videos, and carousels in a responsive grid, choosing media sizes to suit each card and your screen while keeping full-resolution media in the viewer. Loads recent posts in batches and older posts as you scroll, with a button to return to the top that stays clear of Messages. • Shows up to 50 story previews in the header, placing unseen stories before seen stories and sorting each group newest first. Drag the strip with your mouse to browse more previews. • Refreshes automatically every minute, adds new posts progressively in newest-first order as each batch arrives, and catches up when you return to an inactive tab. You can refresh manually or pause updates; stalled requests time out and failed requests retry with a delay, including on the first load. Posts that cannot be displayed are skipped so the rest of your feed can load and can be retried later. • Offers full-screen mode for the whole dashboard. An optional setting hides the header while full screen is active; press Esc to return to the normal view. • Lets you browse carousels with buttons or touchpad gestures and open photos or videos in a separate full-screen media viewer, with loading indicators for photos and thumbnails. Feed video autoplay and automatic carousel scrolling pause while the media viewer is open or their posts are out of view. • Can autoplay muted feed videos and advance carousels while their posts are in view. Carousel movement reverses at each end and pauses during interaction; playback settings are optional. • Keeps captions, linked hashtags and mentions, timestamps, clickable hearts to like or unlike posts, like counts, original-post links, and copy-link controls close to each post. The media viewer also has a heart button and like count that stay in sync with the feed. • Keeps Instagram’s Messages button and conversations accessible while you browse. You can hide the button in Settings. • Opens manually by default after installation. Lets you choose whether the dashboard opens automatically on Instagram Home or restores its last visibility state. • Lets you send private feedback with an optional screenshot you can choose, paste, preview, or remove before sending. HOW TO USE A one-time welcome overlay on Instagram introduces the Dashboard menu item after installation. 1. Sign in to Instagram in Chrome. 2. Open Instagram and select Dashboard in the left navigation. 3. Browse your feed, scroll for older posts, or select media to open the viewer. Use the header to refresh, pause updates, or enter dashboard full-screen mode; press Esc to leave it. PRIVACY AND PERMISSIONS This extension works only on Instagram. It processes the Instagram session and feed content needed to show your dashboard, and sends feed, story, comment, reply, and user-requested like or unlike requests directly to Instagram using your active session. It does not send this information to the developer, sell it, use it for advertising, or retain it after the dashboard session ends. If you choose to send private feedback, only the message you write, an optional email address, optional screenshot, and the extension version are sent to the developer's Google-hosted feedback form and private Drive folder. Instagram feed data is never included. Instagram Dashboard is an independent extension and is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Instagram or Meta.
