Why people choose IGLink
Original quality, never re-encoded
We pass along the exact file Instagram serves publicly. No compression, no resizing and no watermark.
Works on every device
A light page (well under 100 KB) that loads fast even on slow mobile data. No app, no extension, no APK.
Private by design
No account, no tracking pixels, no stored downloads. We never ask for your Instagram password.
Honest about limits
If something can't be downloaded (private posts, Stories behind login), we tell you why instead of showing fake buttons.

Yes, 100% free with no sign-up. We don't limit how many public reels you save for personal use.

Is downloading Instagram videos legal?
Saving public content for personal use is usually fine. Reposting or selling it without the creator's permission is not. Read our plain-English legal guide.
