Frequently Asked Questions

How do I download Instagram Reels?

Copy the Reel link from the share menu, paste it into the box above, and pick a format. Reels are usually offered in a single vertical MP4 at the resolution Instagram served, so there is normally one obvious choice.

Can I download Instagram Stories?

Public Stories can be downloaded by pasting the Story link. Stories expire after 24 hours, so once the window closes there is nothing left at that URL to fetch and the check will fail.

What's the difference between downloading a Reel, a Story and a feed post?

Reels and feed videos are permanent while the post stays public. Stories are temporary. Feed posts with several items are carousels, and each slide has to be saved separately.

Can I download private Instagram videos?

No. VideoGrab only reads publicly accessible links. If a post or account is private, nothing is fetched.

Why does my Instagram link fail to check?

The usual causes are a private account, a Story past its 24 hours, or a shortened link that has not resolved. Open the post in a browser first and copy the full URL from the address bar.
