Instagram Media Downloader

Download public Instagram media by URL — photos, videos, and carousel slides when available. Use it to save your own public posts for backups or creative reuse.

How it works

  1. Paste a public post URL — Supports common Instagram share links for posts and Reels that are publicly visible.
  2. We resolve the media — The tool requests the public media URLs tied to that post. If nothing downloadable is found, you’ll see a clear error.
  3. Save each item — Single posts return one file; carousels can return multiple images or videos to download individually.

Why did a post return no media?

The link may be private, deleted, region-restricted, or temporarily unreachable. Double-check the URL and try again.
