Instagram photo downloader for posts and carousels
Save every image in a public Instagram post as its own full-size JPG.
Short answer
To download Instagram photos, open the post, tap the three dots above the picture and choose Copy link, then paste it into the box above. Every image in the post comes back as its own JPG, numbered in the order the carousel shows them, at the size Instagram publishes. A carousel that mixes pictures and video lists both.
| You paste | You get |
|---|---|
| A public single-image post | That picture as a full-size JPG |
| A public carousel | One JPG per image, numbered in post order |
| A carousel mixing photos and video | Both: the JPGs and the MP4s, each with its own button |
| A Reel, or a post from a private account | A Reel returns its video. A private account serves nothing to anyone outside its followers |
How it works
How to download Instagram photos and carousels
An Instagram photo post is one picture or a carousel of several, and that is how it comes back: one JPG per image, at the size Instagram publishes it.
01Open the post and copy its link
Open the photo post in the app or on instagram.com. Tap the three dots above the picture and choose Copy link; on a computer, the address in the bar works just as well.
02Paste it into the box
Paste the link into the field at the top of this page and tap Download. A carousel is read as a whole, so you do not have to swipe to the picture you want first.
03Save the images you want
Every picture is listed as its own JPG, numbered in the order the post shows them. Save one, save several, or ignore the rest; a carousel that mixes photos and video lists both.
Good to know about Instagram photo posts
- Only public posts work. A private account serves nothing to anyone outside its followers, and no tool can change that.
- On iPhone, each JPG lands in Files, under Downloads. Open it, tap Share, then Save Image to put it in Photos.
- Stories are a different thing and are not supported; these are the posts that stay on a profile.
On your device
How to save a Instagram video on any device
The steps are the same everywhere. Only where the file lands is different.
iPhone and iPad
Copy the share link, paste it here, and tap a download row. Safari puts the file in the Files app under Downloads; open it there, tap Share and choose Save Video to move it into Photos.
Android
Copy the share link, paste it here, and tap a download row. Chrome saves to the Downloads folder, and the video shows up in Google Photos under the device folders within a minute.
Windows and Mac
Paste the link and click the quality you want. The file goes to your normal downloads folder. This is the easiest place to take the 1080p version, which is larger than a phone usually needs.
Why this one
Quick, private, and nothing left behind
No pop-ups between you and the file, no countdown before the link appears.
Resolved in a few seconds
Links are parsed server-side and handed back as direct media URLs, so the only thing that limits you is your own connection speed.
No account, no app install
Everything runs in the browser tab you already have open. We never ask you to sign in or hand over credentials for the source platform.
Clean files, no watermark
Where the platform exposes an unbranded rendition, that is the one we hand you first, ready to re-edit without a logo in the corner.
Every quality on offer
HD, SD and audio-only renditions are listed side by side with their file size so you can pick what fits your storage.
Built for phones first
The layout is designed for one-handed use on a phone, and works the same on tablets, laptops and desktops.
Nothing kept afterwards
Submitted links are used to answer the request and then dropped. No download history, no profile, no tracking cookies.

Instagram photo downloader questions
How do I download Instagram photos?
Open the post in the app or on instagram.com, tap the three dots above the picture and choose Copy link. Paste it into the box at the top of this page and tap Download. Each image appears as its own JPG with its own download button.
Can I download a whole Instagram carousel at once?
Every image is listed in one go, numbered in the order the post shows them, but each saves as its own file. You can save Instagram images one at a time and skip the rest, or take the whole set. There is no ZIP: Instagram stores them as separate pictures, so that is how they come back.
Are the images full size or a cropped preview?
Full size, exactly as Instagram serves them. Nothing is resized, recompressed or watermarked on the way through, so what you save is what the account uploaded.
Do I need an Instagram account to save images?
No. There is no login step here and you are never asked for Instagram credentials. Only public posts can be read, which is the same thing a logged-out visitor to the profile would see.
What happens with a carousel that has a video in it?
Both kinds are listed. The pictures appear as JPGs and the clips as MP4s, each with its own download button, so you can take only the part you came for.
Can I save photos from a private account?
No, and no tool can. A private account serves its posts only to approved followers, so there is nothing for this page to fetch. Any site claiming otherwise is either wrong or after your login.
What are the saved images named, and where do they land?
Each file keeps the number it had in the post, so a carousel saved in full stays in order on disk. On an iPhone they go to the Files app under Downloads; open one, tap Share and choose Save Image to move it into Photos. On Android they land in the Downloads folder and appear in Google Photos under the device folders.
