Download Instagram Reels & Videos

Reels & IG video

Paste an instagram.com post or Reels URL. Each listed format shows estimated size - download directly from that row.

Private posts and stories that require login cannot be fetched here.

How to copy links & download

How to copy an Instagram Reels link (app)

Open the Reel. Tap the three dots ··· or Share, then Copy link. Paste the instagram.com/reel/… URL in the field above.

For feed videos, use the same menu on the post; ensure the account is public if the link fails.

How to copy an Instagram link (browser)

Open the Reel or post on instagram.com. Copy the permalink from the address bar.

Stories disappear and often cannot be downloaded the same way - use saved Reels or permanent posts.

Reels vs IGTV vs carousel

Single-video posts and Reels work best. Carousels may only expose one video or need the direct reel link.

Private profiles block access - only public or link-accessible content can be analyzed.

Frequently Asked Questions

How to download Instagram Reels to my phone?
Open MyVideoCity in your mobile browser, paste the Instagram Reels link (instagram.com/reel/…), tap Analyze, then Download. The video saves to your phone's gallery or Downloads folder. No Instagram login required.
Can I download private Instagram videos?
No. MyVideoCity can only access publicly available content. If the account is private or the post requires a follow to view, it cannot be downloaded. This is a privacy protection - only publicly shared content is accessible.
Is downloading Instagram Reels legal?
Downloading for personal offline viewing is generally acceptable in most regions. Never re-upload, monetize, or claim downloaded content as your own. Always respect the creator's rights and Instagram's Terms of Use.
Why can't I download this Instagram video?
Common reasons: the account is private, the post was deleted, or it's a carousel where only the first item is a video. Try copying the link again using Share → Copy Link from the Instagram app, then paste into MyVideoCity.
Can I download Instagram Stories?
Instagram Stories expire after 24 hours. MyVideoCity works best with permanent content - Reels and feed videos with a stable public link. For TikTok short videos, visit our TikTok downloader.
How to download Instagram IGTV videos?
IGTV videos follow the same process - copy the instagram.com post link, paste into MyVideoCity, click Analyze, and download. Longer IGTV videos are supported when they are publicly available.
Can I download Instagram carousel (multi-video) posts?
Instagram carousels may expose only the first media item via the share link. For best results, open the specific video slide in the carousel, copy that individual item's link, and paste it into MyVideoCity.
Can I download Instagram Reels without an Instagram account?
Yes. MyVideoCity does not require any Instagram account or login. Simply paste the public Reel URL and download. This differs from the Instagram app's built-in save feature which requires a logged-in account.
What download quality is available for Instagram Reels?
Instagram typically serves Reels up to 1080p. The exact resolution depends on how the creator uploaded. MyVideoCity shows all available options - select the highest for best quality. Compare with TikTok downloads for HD quality.
Does MyVideoCity support instagram.com and instagr.am links?
Yes. Standard instagram.com/reel/, instagram.com/p/ post links, and instagr.am short links are all supported. Paste whichever format you copied and MyVideoCity will resolve it automatically.
