Instagram Photo Downloader
Save Instagram photos in full resolution and every slide of a carousel post from one link. Free, no login.
Full-size Instagram photos, not screenshots
A screenshot crops the photo, adds your status bar, and drops the resolution to your screen size. The Instagram photo downloader saves the actual image file Instagram stores, usually up to 1080 pixels wide, as a JPG with its real colors and no interface around it.
Paste the link of a public photo post and it is ready to save in a second. Paste a carousel link and every slide is listed with its own download button as a JPG. Paste a Reel or video link and you get its cover image (thumbnail) as a JPG; to save the video itself, use the Instagram Reels downloader.
How to download Instagram photos
Copy the post link
In Instagram, tap the three dots (⋮) on the photo or carousel, then tap "Copy Link".
Paste the link
Paste the copied link into the box above, or tap the Paste icon.
Then press Enter
Download the photos
Every photo and slide is listed. Click "Download Photo" on the ones you want to save them as JPG.
Instagram carousel downloader
A carousel can hold up to 20 photos and videos. You do not need a separate link for each slide: one post link brings up all of them in order, so you can save just the slide you want or the whole set.
| Single photo post | Saved as one JPG in the size Instagram stores. |
|---|---|
| Photo carousel | Every slide listed separately, each with its own Download button. |
| Mixed carousel | Photos save as JPG, and each video slide saves as its cover image. |
| Reel or video | Saves the thumbnail as a JPG. For the MP4, use the Reels downloader. |
| Profile picture | Not supported yet. Only post photos can be saved. |
