Instagram Video Downloader

Download public Instagram Reels as MP4 — no sign-up, no app install. Paste the link and save.

Works with public instagram.com Reel links.

Only download content you own or have permission to use. You are responsible for how you use what you download.

Formats and quality

The downloader hands you Instagram’s own video files — nothing is re-encoded, re-compressed or watermarked.

  • MP4 files. Every download is a standard MP4 video that plays on any phone, tablet or computer.
  • High quality. Saves the video at the quality Instagram serves for that reel.
  • Reels. Public Reels resolve to direct, standard MP4 video files.

How it works

  1. Copy the video link

    On instagram.com or in the Instagram app, open the Reel, tap Share, then Copy link.

  2. Paste it and press Download

    Paste the link into the box above and press Download. The page lists the qualities the video is available in.

  3. Pick a quality and save

    Tap a quality — 720p — and the MP4 file saves straight to your device.

Questions

How do I download an Instagram reel?

Copy the link to the Reel on instagram.com, paste it into the box above and press Download. Pick the quality from the list and the MP4 file saves to your device.

Can I save Instagram Reels?

Yes. Copy the Reel link the same way — Share, then Copy link — paste it above and press Download. Public Reels resolve to direct MP4 video files.

Which Instagram links are supported?

Public Instagram Reel links work today. Paste a public reel link from instagram.com and save the MP4.

Can I download reels from private accounts?

No. Only reels shared publicly can be downloaded. Private accounts and deleted reels cannot be resolved without an Instagram login — and this tool never asks for one.

What quality are Instagram reels saved in?

MP4, at the quality Instagram publishes for that reel — typically 720p. The file is Instagram's own, with no watermark.

Do I need an app or a browser extension?

No. There is nothing to install — the downloader works in any modern browser, on phone, tablet or computer.

Are downloaded videos stored on your servers?

No. The link is sent to our server only to look up the video’s file addresses — we don’t store your videos. The video itself downloads straight from Instagram’s CDN to your device.

Why won't a reel download?

Usually the reel is from a private account, deleted or unavailable — only public reels can be downloaded. Try another link — if it is a public reel, it should work.
