Is iGram free, and is there a download limit?

Yes. iGram is a free Instagram downloader with no cap on how many files you save. Free downloads come in lower quality. Premium plans add HD and 4K video, MP3 audio and faster downloads.

Do I need an Instagram account to use an IG downloader?

No. iGram works with public posts, which anyone can open without signing in, so it never asks for your login or password.

Can I download from a private Instagram account?

No. iGram reaches only posts that are visible to everyone, so a private profile stays closed even if you follow it.

What quality do downloaded files have?

Photos save as JPG, usually up to 1080 × 1350 pixels, the size Instagram keeps. Videos save as MP4: in lower quality on the free plan and in HD, up to 4K, with Premium. If you were looking for an Instagram downloader with no watermark, iGram adds none, and no file gets better than the original upload.

Does the creator know that I downloaded their post?

No. Instagram doesn't notify anyone about downloads, and iGram doesn't contact the account or leave a trace on the post.

Does iGram keep the links or files I download?

No. iGram doesn't store the links you paste or the files you save. After the download, the file exists only on your device.

Why doesn't my Instagram link download?

Check these causes in order:the account is private;the post was deleted, or the Story is older than 24 hours;the link was cut off when you copied it, so copy it again with Share and Copy link;a temporary error, which usually clears if you try again in a minute.

Does the Instagram downloader work on a phone?

Yes. iGram works as an insta downloader in any mobile browser: Safari on iPhone and iPad, Chrome or another browser on Android. You can download Instagram files on a phone without installing anything.

One album can hold up to 20 photos and videos. iGram lists each of them after you paste the link, and you save the ones you need.

Long videos from IGTV and the Video tab download in full. There is no length limit, only a longer wait on a slow connection.

How to download from Instagram

iGram is an Instagram link downloader: it needs only the address of the post. Copy it in Instagram and paste it here to download Instagram posts, Reels and Stories.

Copy the link

Open the post in Instagram, tap Share (the paper plane icon) and choose Copy link. On a computer, copy the address from the browser bar.
Paste it into iGram

Come back to this page, paste the link into the field at the top and press Download.
Save the file

iGram shows the files it found in the post. Press Download under the one you want, and it saves to your device.

A link to a whole profile works as well, not only a link to a single post.

Paste an Instagram link and download

Where to copy the link and find the file

Every Instagram download goes through the same three steps. Devices differ in two places: the menu that holds Copy link and the folder where the file ends up.

On iPhone and iPad

In the Instagram app, tap Share and then Copy link. Open iGram in Safari and paste the link to download Instagram Reels, photos or Stories straight to the phone.

Safari puts the file into the Files app, in the Downloads folder. Moving it to Photos takes four taps, shown step by step on the video downloader page.

On Android

Copy the link the same way, then open iGram in Chrome or any other browser. Files land in the Downloads folder and show up in the Gallery app a few seconds later.

If you save posts every day, the iGram app for Android does the same job without a browser.

On Windows and Mac

Copy the post address from the browser bar, or use Share and Copy link on instagram.com. The browser saves the file to its Downloads folder, next to everything else you download.

What iGram can't download

When a link returns nothing, the post usually falls into one of these cases.

Private accounts. iGram reads only what anyone can open without logging in. Posts from a closed profile stay closed, even if you follow it.
Deleted posts and expired Stories. Once a post is removed or a Story passes its 24 hours, there is nothing left to save.
HD and 4K on the free plan. Free downloads come in lower quality. HD, up to 4K when the creator uploaded it, is part of Premium, and no plan makes a file sharper than the original.

Try it with a public post link

Online downloader, app or browser extension

For a one-off save on an iPhone, an Instagram downloader online is the shortest route, since nothing needs installing. People who save from Android every day get more out of the app. Instagram's own Download button handles a single case: a public Reel whose creator left downloads on.

iGram online, the iGram app, Instagram's Download button and other ways to save posts
	iGram online	iGram app for Android	Instagram app	Browser extensions	Screen recording
What it saves	Reels, videos, photos, carousels, Stories, IGTV	Photos, videos, Reels, IGTV	Public Reels only	Depends on the add-on	Whatever plays on screen
Install needed	No	Yes, an APK file	No	Yes	No
Works on iPhone	Yes, in Safari	No	Yes	Some, as Safari extensions	Yes
Instagram login	Not needed	Not needed	Required	Depends on the add-on	Not needed for public posts
Watermark	None added	None added	Instagram logo and the creator's username	Depends on the add-on	None, but menus may end up in the frame
Sound	Original audio track	Original audio track	Missing on Reels with licensed music	Depends on the add-on	Yes, if the phone records it
HD and 4K	With Premium	With Premium	Not stated by Instagram	Depends on the add-on	No, the picture is re-recorded

Creators can turn off downloads of their Reels for the whole account or for a single Reel, and then Instagram's button disappears. Whichever way you pick, a trustworthy service never asks for your Instagram password.

Free and Premium: what you get

Downloading is free, with no cap on the number of files. Premium adds full quality and a few extra tools on plans for 1, 6 or 12 months, and the longer plans cost at least a third less per month than the monthly one.

iGram Free and Premium features
Feature	Free	Premium
Video (MP4)	Lower quality, not HD	HD, up to Full HD and 4K
Photos (JPG)	Yes	Yes
Audio only (MP3)	No	Yes
Profile stats: posts, likes, followers	No	Yes
Download speed	Standard	Up to 2× faster, with resume
Media library	No	Yes

Quality can't go above what the creator uploaded. A video posted in 720p stays 720p on any plan.

Is it safe and legal to use an Instagram downloader?

iGram never asks for your Instagram password, and there is nothing to sign in to. It doesn't store the links you paste or the files you save, and the creator gets no notification when you download Instagram content. The details are in the privacy policy.

Downloading a public post to watch offline is common, but it gives you no rights to the content. Reposting it or using it commercially without the creator's permission can break copyright law and Instagram's Terms of Use.
