Download Instagram Reels in HD
This Reels downloader saves any public Instagram Reel as an MP4 file. It reads the Reel's original video, so you get the same quality Instagram plays, up to 1080p and 60 fps when the creator uploaded it that way.
How to save a Reel
- Open the Reel in Instagram, tap the share icon and choose Copy link.
- Paste the link above. Links with extra tracking text at the end work too.
- Pick a quality and confirm. The Reel downloads as an MP4.
Which quality should I choose?
The 720p MP4 is the safest choice: it opens on every phone and computer, including iPhone Photos. The best-quality option is sharper and smoother but uses the VP9 format, which plays best on Android, Chrome and VLC. Data saver gives a smaller file for slow connections.
Want only the soundtrack? Use the Instagram audio downloader.
