Free Instagram Downloader
Instagram Photo Downloader Full Size
Save Instagram photos and carousel posts in full quality, one picture or all of them.
This Instagram photo downloader saves pictures and carousel posts from public Instagram accounts in full size. Copy the post link, paste it in the box above and press Download. Each photo saves as a JPG in the original quality, with no login, no app and no watermark.
Screenshots crop the picture and lower the quality. Downloading the real image gives you the full-resolution file, which looks much better if you want to print it, use it as a wallpaper or keep it for reference.
How to download Instagram photos
- Open the post in Instagram.
- Tap the three dots or the Share icon and choose Copy link.
- Paste the link in the box above and press Download.
- For a carousel, you get a separate button for every picture. Save one or all of them.
Quick answer: to download a photo from Instagram, copy the post link, paste it into this Instagram photo downloader and press Download. You get the full-size JPG image without cropping, logging in or installing an app.
Download IG photos in full size, not screenshots
When you download IG photos with this tool, you get the image file Instagram stores for that post. That’s usually 1080 pixels wide, which is the maximum size Instagram keeps. A screenshot, by contrast, includes your phone’s status bar, gets cropped, and is often compressed again when you share it.
So if the picture matters, use the IG photo downloader instead of a screenshot. It takes the same amount of time and the result is cleaner.
Save carousel posts and multiple pictures
Many Instagram posts have more than one picture. Paste the link of a carousel and this Instagram image downloader shows every photo and video in it. You can download images of Instagram carousels one by one, so you only keep the pictures you want.
This also works as an IG image downloader for posts that mix photos and videos. Videos get an MP4 button, pictures get a JPG button.
Where do downloaded pictures go?
iPhone
In Safari, tap and hold the picture after it opens and choose Save to Photos, or find it in Files → Downloads.
Android
The picture goes to your Downloads folder and shows up in your Gallery or Google Photos.
Computer
The JPG saves to your Downloads folder, ready to open in any photo app.
Why use this insta image downloader
- Full size: the Instagram download picture is the original, not a screenshot
- Every image: download IG images from single posts and carousels
- No watermark or username stamped on the photo
- No login, so your account is never touched
- Free, with no limit on how many photos you save
It’s the easiest way to download photo from Instagram posts you want to keep: travel inspiration, outfit ideas, recipes written on a picture, or your own old posts.
Respect the photographer
Photos on Instagram belong to the people who took them. Saving a picture for your own use is fine, but if you want to repost it, use it on a website or print it for sale, ask for permission and credit the photographer.
Looking for videos instead? Use the Instagram Video Downloader or the Instagram Story Downloader.
