What it saves

One Instagram downloader for Reels, videos and IGTV

Paste any public link into the box at the top and the right file comes back. No separate tool for each type, no guessing which box to use.

Instagram Reels to MP4

Reels come back as the same MP4 Instagram plays, up to 1080 × 1920, with the sound in it. Paste a link that contains /reel/.

Instagram video downloader

Videos shared as normal posts work the same way. Paste a link with /p/ and the video in that post is saved as an MP4.

IGTV downloader

Older IGTV links still work. Instagram now treats them as ordinary videos, and so do we: paste the /tv/ link and download.

Instagram Reels to MP3

Only want the sound? Every result has an MP3 audio button, and the MP3 tool gives you the track straight away.

Facebook video downloader

Reels and videos from public Facebook pages, from a short clip to a full episode, saved as MP4 with the sound joined in.

Reels to MP4

Convert an Instagram Reel link to MP4 in 1080p

Most people searching for a “reels to MP4” tool want one thing: the Reel as a normal video file they can keep, play offline or edit. That is exactly what the box above gives you. Copy the Reel link, paste it, and the MP4 downloads with the picture and sound together.

From a Reel link to an MP4 file

Any public link that contains /reel/, /reels/, /p/ or /tv/ works, whether you copied it in the app or from the browser bar. Links with ?igsh= or other tracking on the end are fine too.

1080p HD, not a re-encode

You get the top rendition Instagram stores, usually 1080 × 1920 H.264 with AAC audio. A smaller 720p file is offered where Instagram has one. See the Reels HD quality guide for what each size is good for.

Plays in any MP4 player

The file opens in the Photos or Gallery app, VLC, QuickTime, Windows Media Player and every video editor, including CapCut and Premiere. No special Reels player and no converter needed.

On iPhone: paste the Reel link here in Safari, tap Download, then open the MP4 from the Files app and choose Save Video to put it in Photos. On Android: the MP4 lands in Downloads and appears in your Gallery. On PC or Mac: the browser saves it to your Downloads folder. Step-by-step screenshots for each device are in how to download Instagram Reels.

Only want the sound? Use Instagram Reels to MP3 to get the audio at 192 kbps instead of the MP4.

Why this one

The Instagram downloader you keep coming back to

Most Instagram Reels downloader sites make you fight them: a fake Download button, a countdown, a nudge towards an APK. We got tired of that, so this one does the one job and gets out of the way.

Original quality

You get the exact file Instagram serves, up to 1080×1920. We never re-encode, so there is no second round of compression and no loss of detail.

No watermark added

Nothing of ours is stamped onto your video. Tools that add branding must re-encode to do it, and that always costs quality.

No login required

We never ask for your Instagram username, password or session cookie. There is no field on this site in which to type one.

Works everywhere

One responsive page for Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, macOS and Linux. No app store detour and nothing to keep updated.

No daily limit

No credits, no queue and no “upgrade to continue” wall after the third download of the day. Use it as often as you need.

Privacy first

No accounts, so no profile of you. We do not store the videos you download or keep a history of the links you paste.

How it works

How to download Instagram videos and Reels to MP4

Copy the link, paste it here, save the file. The same on a phone and a laptop.

  1. 01

    Copy the Reel link

    In the Instagram app, tap the paper-plane share icon under the Reel and choose Copy link. On a computer, copy the address from the browser bar.

  2. 02

    Paste it into the box

    Come back here, paste the link and press Download. We read the public page behind that link and find the media address the player uses.

  3. 03

    Save the MP4

    Pick a quality and save. Android files land in Downloads; on iPhone, Safari puts them in the Files app.

In practice

However you got here, it works the same way

The steps barely change between platforms. Only the saved file's location does.

How to download Instagram Reels

Paste the link here. Android saves to Downloads; iPhone puts it in the Files app.

Reels without a watermark

Instagram adds nothing, so your download is already clean.

Instagram Reels audio download

The sound ships inside the MP4, or take the MP3 on its own.

Instagram Reels download HD

1080p to archive, 720p for offline viewing.

Videos, IGTV and other platforms

Feed videos and IGTV use the same box. Pinterest has its own pages for videos, images, GIFs, Idea Pins and whole boards, and so does Facebook. The blog covers where files land and what quality you really get.

Questions

Instagram downloader questions

The things people email us about most. If yours is not here, send it over and a real person will answer it.

Can I download Instagram videos and IGTV, not just Reels?

Yes. Paste a link to a video post (it contains /p/) or an older IGTV link (it contains /tv/) and it downloads exactly like a Reel: an MP4 in the best quality Instagram serves, with an MP3 option for the sound.

Does it download Instagram photos or Stories?

Photos, yes: the Instagram photo downloader saves public photos as full-size JPG, and the carousel downloader saves every slide of a post. Stories, not yet, because Instagram only shows them to signed-in accounts and this site never asks for your login.

Is it really free?

Yes. There is no paid tier, no trial period and no download quota. You do not need an account, an email address or an app. The site is funded by unobtrusive on-page advertising, which is why it can stay free without ever asking for your Instagram credentials.

Do I have to log in to Instagram?

No, and you should never enter your Instagram login into any third-party downloader. We only read the public page behind the link you paste, exactly as a logged-out visitor would see it. If a site asks for your password, close the tab.

Can I download private Reels?

No, and that is deliberate. We can only reach content Instagram serves publicly without a session. Reels from private accounts and close-friends posts will not work, because bypassing a creator’s privacy setting is not something this tool will do.

Will the video have a watermark?

Nothing of ours is added. Instagram does not burn a watermark into Reels either. The handle you see while a Reel plays is drawn by the app and disappears in the file. If a mark is burned in by the creator, or came from a TikTok cross-post, it is part of the pixels and cannot be removed cleanly.

What quality will I get?

The highest rendition Instagram is serving for that Reel, usually 1080×1920 H.264 with AAC audio. We never re-encode, so there is no generation loss. If a Reel was uploaded at a lower resolution, that is the ceiling. No tool can add detail that was never uploaded.

How do I convert an Instagram Reel to MP4?

There is nothing to convert. Instagram already stores Reels as MP4 files, so we hand you the same file its player uses, untouched. Paste the link, press Download, and the MP4 is yours. Any site that claims to "convert" a Reel is re-encoding it, which only costs you quality.

Can I download Instagram Reels in 1080p?

Yes, when the creator uploaded in 1080p. The downloader returns the highest rendition Instagram serves, which for most Reels is 1080 × 1920. If a Reel was uploaded smaller, that lower size is the most any tool can give you.

Which MP4 player will play the downloaded Reel?

Any of them. The file is a standard H.264 MP4 with AAC sound, so it plays in the Photos or Gallery app, VLC, QuickTime, Windows Media Player and browsers, and imports into CapCut, iMovie or Premiere without converting.

Does the MP4 have sound?

Yes. The picture and the audio sit in the same MP4 file, so it plays with sound in any player, on any phone or computer. Nothing separate to download and nothing to join together.

Where does the file save on my phone?

On Android, downloads land in the Downloads folder and show up in your Gallery within a minute or two. On iPhone and iPad, Safari saves the MP4 to the Files app under Downloads. Open it there and tap Share → Save Video to move it into Photos.

Will the creator know I downloaded it?

No. Instagram does not notify anyone when a Reel is viewed or saved through an external page, and we never act on your behalf using your identity. The creator sees no extra view and no record of your device.

Is this an Instagram downloader without watermark?

Yes. The MP4 you get is the file Instagram serves, so nothing of ours is stamped on it and nothing is re-encoded. A Reels downloader with no watermark is only possible that way: adding a logo would mean re-compressing your video.

Can I save video from Instagram on a phone?

Yes. Copy the link in the Instagram app, paste it in the box above and press Download. Android saves the file to Downloads and iPhone puts it in the Files app, from where Share → Save Video moves it into Photos.
