ParsingPassed
DownloadPassed
Test sample1.0 MB · 31.4 s
Subtitle tracksNone
Separate audio trackNo
Instagram passed in our test (1.0 MB in 31 seconds), but there is no separate audio track — Instagram serves video and sound already merged, so you get one complete file.

How to save videos from this platform

  1. Copy the video link — from the Share button in the app, or from the browser address bar.
  2. Paste it into the desktop client and press parse, then pick quality, audio and subtitles.
  3. Choose an output folder and start the download. Everything runs on your own machine.

Questions about this platform

Can I download Instagram Reels?
Yes — Reels parsed and downloaded in our test. Paste the post URL and the client picks the highest quality stream available.
Why is there no separate audio track?
Instagram serves video and audio merged into a single stream, unlike YouTube. You still get sound — it is just already inside the file.
Do I need to log in?
Public posts: no. Private accounts and Stories need cookies imported from a browser that is logged in — and for private accounts, one that already follows the profile.
