About
ig.tools lets you download public Instagram videos, Reels, photos, carousel posts and Stories without logging in. Paste a link or username, preview each media item, and save in original quality. It preserves source files without upscaling or watermarks, and works on desktop or mobile browsers.
The case
Who it is for
Content creators who need to save Instagram posts for offline use, marketers who gather public media, or anyone who wants to keep a backup of their favorite Instagram content.
What is broken today
Before ig.tools, downloading public Instagram media required third‑party sites, browser extensions, or manual steps that often broke links or required account login. Users had to search for each post’s direct URL, deal with expired links, or rely on unreliable services that added watermarks or changed quality.
What it does about it
ig.tools works purely client‑side: paste a public link or username, the site fetches the media directly from Instagram’s CDN, displays each available item, and offers download links or a ZIP. It preserves the original resolution and, for audio, converts video to MP3 locally. No server‑side storage, no login, no watermarks.
Why not the obvious alternative
Unlike generic downloader tools or browser extensions that only handle single media types, ig.tools automatically detects posts, Reels, carousels, and Stories, shows all media items in original order, and lets you download individual files or a ZIP. It also supports anonymous viewing of Stories and Highlights through a Chrome extension, and it never requests your Instagram credentials.
