How to Download Instagram Videos
Saving an Instagram video for offline viewing only takes a few seconds. This guide shows how to download any public Instagram video or reel in full HD on iPhone, Android, or computer — free, with the original sound and no watermark.
Step by step
- Open the video on Instagram. Find the video, reel, or post in the Instagram app or on instagram.com. The account must be public.
- Copy the link. Tap the ⋯ (three-dots) or share icon and choose “Copy link”. On a computer, copy the URL from the address bar.
On Instagram, open the ⋯ menu (or share icon) and tap Copy Link — it works on posts, reels, stories, and profiles. - Paste it into SaveJet. Open the video downloader, paste the link, and the video is detected automatically.
- Download in HD. Tap Download to save the MP4 in original quality with sound. To keep only the audio, choose the MP3 option.
Can you download Instagram videos with sound?
Yes — a good downloader keeps the original audio in the MP4. If you want only the soundtrack (for example a trending sound), use the audio-to-MP3 tool. For short vertical clips specifically, the reels downloader works the same way.
Where do downloaded videos get saved?
On iPhone, Safari saves the MP4 to the Files app. On Android, it goes to your Gallery or Downloads folder. On PC or Mac, it lands in your browser's Downloads folder, ready to play or share.
Is it legal to download Instagram videos?
Downloading public videos for personal, offline use is generally acceptable, but the video belongs to its creator. Don't repost it as your own, respect copyright, and avoid private accounts. Use downloads responsibly.
