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.

Download Instagram Reels and keep them offline

Instagram lets you bookmark a reel, but a bookmark only works inside the app and disappears if the creator deletes the post. The app's own download option is not offered on every reel, and when it is, the video comes with the Instagram logo and the account name stamped on it. This reels downloader gives you the plain MP4 file instead.

The reel is saved exactly as Instagram stores it. A reel uploaded in 1080p downloads in 1080p with its original sound, and nothing is compressed a second time. Once it is in your gallery you can watch it without internet, send it to a friend or keep it as a reference for your own edits.

No watermark

You get the original file from Instagram, without the logo and username overlay that the in-app download adds.

Full HD MP4

Reels are saved as MP4 at the resolution they were uploaded in, up to 1080p. The file plays on any phone, TV or editing app.

Sound included

The audio stays in the video. If you only need the song or voice-over, use the reels audio downloader.

Any reel link works

Links with /reel/ or /reels/ and the short share link from the app are all accepted.

Save Reels on iPhone, Android and PC

The steps are the same everywhere. Only the place where the file ends up changes.

iPhone and iPad

Open this page in Safari, paste the reel link and tap Download MP4. Safari saves the reel to the Files app, in Downloads. Open it there, tap Share and choose Save Video to move it to your camera roll.

Android

Use Chrome or any other browser. After you tap Download MP4 the reel goes to the Downloads folder and shows up in your Gallery or Google Photos within a few seconds.

Windows and Mac

Copy the reel address from the browser bar, paste it here and click Download MP4. The file lands in your Downloads folder and opens in any video player.

Frequently asked questions

Quick answers to common questions.

How do I download Instagram Reels?

Open the reel, tap the share arrow and choose Copy link. Paste that link into the box at the top of this page and press Download. When the preview appears, tap Download MP4 and the reel is saved to your device.

Do downloaded reels have a watermark?

No. The file comes straight from Instagram's servers, so there is no logo or username overlay on it. Text and stickers that the creator added to the video are part of the reel and stay in.

Can I save reels to my phone gallery?

Yes. On Android the reel appears in the Gallery automatically. On iPhone it is saved to Files first. Open it, tap Share, then Save Video, and it moves to the Photos app.

Are reels downloaded in HD?

They are downloaded in the quality the creator uploaded, which is 1080p for most reels. The video is not compressed again, so it looks the same as it does in the app.

Can I download reels with the music?

Yes, the MP4 includes the original audio. To get only the sound as an MP3, use the Instagram reels audio downloader.

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.
