Why we built Instagram Download
Instagram is home to some of the best short-form video on the internet — funny, inspiring, educational — but the app itself gives you no built-in way to save a post to your device.
We ran into that same wall ourselves, so we built a simple, safe, and anonymous way to grab a copy of any public post — no extra app, no account, no login details shared with anyone.
What is Instagram?
Instagram is a social network where people share photos and videos and connect through comments, likes, and messages. Creators, brands, and public figures use it to publish everything from quick Reels to longer IGTV videos on topics like tech, music, education, and entertainment.
Frequently asked questions
What is an Instagram video downloader?
It's a free web tool that lets you save public Instagram videos, Reels, and photos to your device just by pasting the post's link.
How do I download a video from Instagram?
Copy the link to the post from the Instagram app, paste it into the box above, and click Download.
Can I download the video in its original quality?
Yes — we fetch the highest quality available for that post, with no extra compression added on our end.
Is there a download limit?
There's no daily limit for normal personal use, though heavy automated use may be rate-limited to keep things fast for everyone.

Can I use this on a PC?
Yes, just open this page in your computer's browser and paste the link — no software installation needed.
Is downloading Instagram videos legal?
Downloading content you have the right to use — your own posts, or content shared with the creator's permission — is fine. Redistributing someone else's content without permission may violate their copyright, so always respect the original creator's rights.
Can I download private Instagram videos?
No. Only public posts can be downloaded — private accounts require access we don't have or request.
The Complete Guide to Downloading Instagram Videos
Whether you want to save a friend's Reel, keep a copy of your own posts, or download a tutorial to watch offline, here's exactly what this tool can do, how the quality selection works, and what happens to your data along the way.
What You Can Download
This tool works with any public post, video, or photo — you don't need to know the exact type before you paste the link.
Reels and Feed Videos
Paste the link to any Reel or regular feed video and we'll list every resolution and frame rate Instagram makes available for it, from the compressed preview quality up to the original upload.
Photos and Carousel Posts
Single photos and multi-photo carousel posts work the same way as videos — paste the post link and choose the quality you want to save.
Stories and Highlights
Stories work as long as the account is public and the story is still live, or saved as a highlight on the profile. Copy the story's link the same way you would for a regular post.
IGTV Episodes
Longer IGTV videos are supported too — the download process and quality options are identical to a regular Reel or feed video.
Video Quality, Formats, and File Size
When you paste a link, we read every format Instagram stores for that post and sort them from highest to lowest resolution, so you always see the best quality available for that specific video — not a re-encoded or compressed copy. Video downloads are merged into a standard MP4 file using the H.264 codec, which plays natively on iPhone, Android, Windows, and Mac without needing a special player. If you only need the sound, the "Download Audio" option extracts just the audio track and saves it as an MP3 file.
Privacy: What Happens to Your Link and File
You never log in, and we never ask for your Instagram username or password — the only thing we need is the link to a public post. Your file is generated on demand and sent straight to your browser; once the download finishes, it's deleted from our server. We don't keep a library of links or videos anyone has downloaded.
Is It Legal to Download Instagram Content?
Downloading your own posts, or content someone has explicitly given you permission to save, is fine. The gray area is redistributing someone else's video or photo without asking first — that can violate their copyright even if the post itself is public. As a rule of thumb: downloading for personal, offline viewing is generally fine; reposting someone else's content elsewhere without their permission is not something we'd recommend.
