Download Instagram videos without an app
This Instagram video downloader turns a public Reel or video post link into a file you can keep. Paste the URL, wait for processing, and save the result. No extension or desktop app required — it works from any modern browser on phone or computer. Private content is not supported.
Supported Instagram link types
Use links that contain /reel/ for Reels, /p/ for feed video posts, or /tv/ for video posts on that path. Stories are not supported. Quality matches what Instagram provides for that post — this tool does not upscale video. Images from supported posts download as JPG.
Which Instagram URLs actually work
Copy the post link from the share sheet or the address bar. A working URL contains /reel/, /reels/, /p/, or /tv/ plus the short code. /stories/ links and instagram.com/share/ tokens are not media pages, so this tool does not treat them as a Reel. Carousels can return more than one file; pick the item you want. The resolution is whatever Instagram already published — nothing here is upscaled.
