Paste the link to a public Instagram Reel or video post to save it as an MP4 in the best quality Instagram offers, or extract the audio as MP3.

  • Platforms change often. If Instagram changes something, downloads may fail for a while until we update.
  • Very long videos and very large files are refused to keep the service fast for everyone.

Frequently asked questions

Can I download Instagram Stories or photos?

This tool is for Reels and video posts. Stories need a login, so they can't be downloaded.

Does it work with private accounts?

No. Only posts from public accounts can be downloaded.

Is it free?

Yes, free with no sign-up and no app to install.

Do you store the videos I download?

No. The file is deleted from our server as soon as it has been sent to your device.

Why did my download fail?

Usually the post is private, deleted or region-locked, or the link points to a profile rather than a single post. Check the link and try again.

Is downloading videos legal?

Download only videos you own or have permission to use. Re-uploading someone else's content can break copyright law and the platform's rules.
