Screen-recording a Reel lowers the quality and captures notifications and on-screen buttons. A Reel downloaded here is the original file the creator uploaded.
How to download a Reel
- Open the Reel and tap the paper-plane (Share) icon.
- Tap Copy link.
- Paste the link above, pick a quality and download.
When picture and sound are separate
For higher-quality Reels, Instagram serves video and audio as separate files. Our server merges them into one MP4, so options marked as being prepared start after a few seconds.
Only need the music?
Use the MP3 option in the results to save the song or voice from a Reel.
Use it responsibly
Reposting someone else's Reel can get your account restricted if the creator reports it. Keep downloads for personal use or ask for permission before sharing.
