Saving Instagram videos as MP4
Instagram has video in several forms: feed videos, reels and carousel clips. Paste the link to any public one and you get a list of the available MP4 files, so you can pick the quality that suits your phone, data plan or storage.
If the video is a reel, the Instagram Reels Downloader is the same tool with wording for reels. If you only want a picture, use the Instagram Photo Downloader. To watch a video before you save it, open it first in the Instagram Posts Viewer.
Only public content can be saved. Respect the creator: keep videos for yourself and ask before you share them.
Why a video may not save
- The account is private, or the video was deleted.
- The link is not a post or reel link. Copy it again with the Copy link option in Instagram.
- The service is busy. Wait a minute and try once more.
