Free tool, no signup

Instagram Video Downloader

Paste any public Instagram post or Reel link. Videos download as HD MP4, photos as full-size JPG, and carousels give you every item.

How to download Instagram videos

  1. Find the post on Instagram and tap the paper plane or three dots.
  2. Choose Copy link. On desktop, copy the URL from the address bar.
  3. Paste it into the box above and press Download.
  4. Each video and photo in the post gets its own button. Open one to save it.

What you can download

  • Video posts and Reels: saved as MP4 in the highest quality Instagram serves.
  • Carousels: every slide, photos as JPG and videos as MP4, in order.
  • Photo posts: the full-size image, not the cropped feed preview.
  • Not supported: Stories, Highlights and private accounts, since Instagram only shows those to logged-in followers.

For brands: keep a copy of campaign content

Creators delete and archive posts, and a campaign report built on links breaks when they do. Download each deliverable when it goes live so your archive survives. To use a creator's video in paid ads, get usage rights in the brief; a campaign on Elev8or tracks deliverables and rights in one place.

Frequently asked questions

How do I download a video from Instagram?

Copy the post link from Instagram, paste it into the box above and press Download. Each video in the post appears as an HD MP4 you can save.

Can I download every photo in a carousel?

Yes. A carousel returns one download per item, so mixed posts give you both the photos (JPG) and the videos (MP4).

Can I download Instagram Stories?

Not with this tool. Stories need a logged-in session to view, so we only support posts and Reels, which are public by link.

Does it work on desktop?

Yes. Open the post on instagram.com, copy the URL from the address bar and paste it here. It works in any browser.

Is downloading Instagram videos allowed?

Saving public posts for personal use is common. Reusing someone else’s video, especially in ads, needs their permission. Brands running creator campaigns should get usage rights in writing.
