Why people use it

A downloader that stays out of your way.

Original quality

Files are pulled straight from Instagram's servers, so you get the same resolution the app shows. Nothing is re-encoded.

No account needed

You never sign in and we never ask for your Instagram password. Paste a public link and you are done.

Works everywhere

One page for Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, macOS and Linux. Nothing to install.

Carousels supported

Multi-photo and mixed photo/video posts are unpacked into separate files you can save one by one.

No waiting queue

Links resolve in a second or two and downloads stream directly through your browser.

Nothing stored

We do not keep the media or your links. Resolved posts sit in a short-lived cache and then disappear.

A downloader for every kind of Instagram post

Instagram has no real save button. A bookmark only works inside the app, and it is gone the day the post is deleted. If you want to keep a clip for offline viewing, back up your own uploads or collect reference footage for editing, you need the file itself. This Instagram video downloader reads the public data Instagram already serves for a post and gives you a direct link to the MP4 or JPG behind it.

Nothing is re-encoded. The file that lands in your downloads folder is the same one Instagram sends to the app, so a video uploaded at 1080p arrives at 1080p. If a post was uploaded at a lower quality, no tool can add detail that was never there.

Feed videos

Any /p/ link whose post contains a video.

Reels

/reel/ and /reels/ links, saved as MP4. See the reels downloader, or get only the sound with the audio downloader.

Photos

Single images at the largest size Instagram publishes. There is a separate photo downloader too.

Carousels

Every slide is listed separately so you can pick the ones you want.

Download Instagram videos on iPhone, Android and PC

The same page works on every device. Here is where your video ends up.

iPhone and iPad

Android

Copy the link in Instagram, open this page in Chrome and paste it. After you tap Download MP4 the video goes to the Downloads folder and appears in your Gallery, ready to watch offline or share.

Windows, Mac and Linux

Open the post in your browser and copy the address from the address bar. Paste it here, click Download MP4 and the file is saved to your Downloads folder. No extension or software is needed.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions.

How do I download a video from Instagram?

Copy the link of the post or reel, paste it into the box at the top of this page and press Download. The video appears with a preview, and one more tap on Download MP4 saves it to your phone or computer.

Is this Instagram video downloader safe?

You never log in, so your Instagram account and password are not involved at all, and there is nothing to install. The site only reads the public link you paste and sends the video file to your browser.

Will the person know I downloaded their video?

No. Instagram does not notify anyone when a public post is downloaded, and this site has no access to your account, so nothing can be traced back to you.

What video quality do I get?

The same quality the video was uploaded in. Most Instagram videos are 720p or 1080p. When Instagram offers more than one version, the largest one is picked for you.

Is IgreelsSave free?

Yes. There is no fee, no daily download limit and no account to create.

Do I have to install an app?

No. Everything runs in your browser. On iPhone the file is saved through the Files app or the share sheet, depending on your browser.

Can I download from a private account?

No. Only content on public profiles can be fetched. Private posts stay private, which is how it should be.

Where do the files go?

To your browser's normal download folder. On Android that is usually Downloads; on iOS, Files › Downloads; on a computer, whatever folder your browser is set to.

Why did my link fail?

The usual reasons are a private account, a deleted post, an age-restricted post, or a link copied from a preview instead of the post itself. Open the post in Instagram, tap the share icon and choose Copy link.

Can I repost what I download?

Only with the creator's permission. The person who made the video or photo still owns it, and downloading a copy does not transfer any rights.
