How to Download from Instagram
Copy the Instagram link
Open the post in Instagram. Tap Share, then Copy link.
Paste the URL
Paste the link above, then select Download to find the media.
Preview and download
Choose a photo or video from the preview, then download it.
Available source quality, directly from Instagram
ig.tools does not upscale, convert or add watermarks. Your browser downloads available files directly from Instagram or Meta’s CDN.
One downloader for public Instagram posts
Use the same input for video posts, Reels, single photos, carousel albums and active public Stories. ig.tools detects the post type and shows each available media item before you download it.
Carousel slides remain in their original order. Mixed albums keep photos and videos as separate files so you can save only the items you want.
Clear limits and temporary links
Only currently available public content is supported. ig.tools does not request your Instagram password, account cookie or access to private profiles. Stories can expire.
Media links are signed and temporary. Refresh the result if a preview or download stops working. Available quality and audio depend on the files Instagram supplies for that post.
Save media on iPhone, Android and desktop
On Android and desktop, completed files normally appear in the browser’s Downloads area. On iPhone, Safari may open a photo or video first; use Share to save it to Photos or Files when that option is offered.
If a direct download is blocked by the browser or a CDN link has expired, choose Open original file or resolve the link again. ig.tools keeps the media on Instagram or Meta’s CDN and does not create a server-side copy.
