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.

Full-size images, one slide at a time

Long-pressing an Instagram photo does nothing, and a screenshot gives you a cropped, lower-quality copy with the app's buttons around it. This Instagram photo downloader reads the post's media list and returns a direct link to each JPG at the size Instagram actually stores.

Carousel posts work the same way. Each slide is shown as its own picture with its own button, so you do not have to swipe and screenshot ten times to save one album.

Carousels

Every item is listed with its own preview and button, numbered by position. A ten-slide post becomes ten separate downloads.

Full resolution

The largest version Instagram stores, usually 1080px on the long edge. No re-encoding, no quality loss.

No storage

Files stream from Instagram's servers straight to your browser. Nothing is saved on ours.

Save Instagram photos on iPhone, Android and PC

You get the real image file, not a screenshot.

iPhone and iPad

Paste the post link in Safari and tap Download JPG under the picture you want. The photo is saved to the Files app. Open it, tap Share and choose Save Image to add it to your camera roll.

Android

After you tap Download JPG the image is stored in the Downloads folder and appears in your Gallery or Google Photos right away.

Windows and Mac

Paste the post address and click Download JPG. The full-size image is saved to your Downloads folder, ready to open or print.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions.

How do I download photos from Instagram?

Copy the link of the post, paste it at the top of this page and press Get photo. Every image in the post is listed with its own Download JPG button.

Can I download all photos from a carousel post?

Yes. A carousel with ten pictures shows ten previews, each with a download button, so you can save all of them or only the ones you need.

What resolution do I get?

The largest version Instagram serves, usually 1080 pixels on the long edge. Instagram compresses photos on upload, so nothing can recover the photographer's original file.

Can I download a profile picture?

Not from this page. Paste a link to a post; profile picture links are not post URLs.

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.
