How to download Instagram content

This guide works for public posts on phones and computers. You do not need an account or an app.

On a phone

  1. Open the Instagram app and find the public post or Reel.
  2. Tap the share icon, then choose Copy link.
  3. Open your browser and go to the downloader.
  4. Tap Paste, allow clipboard access if asked, then choose your file.

On a computer

  1. Open the post on instagram.com and copy the address from the browser bar.
  2. Paste it into the box on the downloader and press Enter.
  3. Click the file you want. It will save to your Downloads folder.

Choosing a format

Videos show every quality we find, highest first. Audio downloads are MP3 files at 320 kbps. Photos from carousel posts appear as separate files.

Troubleshooting

  • If nothing appears, check that the post is public and the link is complete.
  • Private accounts cannot be downloaded.
  • Stories are downloaded on the Stories page. Profile pictures are not supported yet.
