Helpful notes

If a photo post says there is no video, use the photo download option.
Instagram may rate-limit repeated checks, so test one public link at a time.
Private, login-gated, and restricted posts are intentionally not supported.

One Instagram Page

Reels, photos, videos, and carousel ZIP workflows are consolidated into the Instagram Downloader so search engines and users see one clear application page.

Carousel and Photo Downloads

When a public carousel exposes multiple images, MediDown can preview detected items and prepare selected or all-image ZIP downloads without claiming access to private posts.

How to use Instagram Downloader

Copy the public or user-authorized media link from the source platform.
Paste the link into the MediDown tool box on this page.
Open the downloader, confirm your rights, and preview detected media.
Choose a recommended download, exact format, image, thumbnail, subtitle, or ZIP option when available.

Carousel ZIP download

Public or user-authorized media only. Private, login-gated, DRM-protected, region-restricted, and policy-restricted content are not supported.

Download in the Best Available Quality

MediDown detects the highest available quality from the original public or user-authorized source. When available, users can download HD, Full HD, 2K, 4K, or 8K video, high-quality audio, original photos, thumbnails, subtitles, and multi-image ZIP files.

Available quality depends on the original upload and what each platform makes publicly available.

Limitations and safe use

MediDown does not promise that every link will work. Platforms can remove media, require login, limit public requests, change page structure, or restrict media access. That is normal for public media tooling, and the downloader is designed to show clear errors instead of implying restricted access is possible.

Public or user-authorized media only. Private, login-gated, DRM-protected, region-restricted, and policy-restricted content are not supported.

Common errors

Instagram can rate-limit public requests.
Some posts require login or are unavailable.
Photo-only posts may not contain a video format.
