How to Download Instagram Videos on PC or Mac

Step by step

1
Copy the post’s link
Open the post on instagram.com and copy the address from the browser bar, or click the three dots and Copy link.
2
Paste it into FetchBolt
Open the Instagram video downloader and paste the link into the box.
3
Download the video
In a carousel, every video is listed. Click Download on the one you want; it saves to your Downloads folder.

Carousels with several videos

Posts with several clips list each one separately, so you can save just the one you need. Photos in carousels are skipped for now.

Never share your password

FetchBolt works with public accounts and never asks for your Instagram login. A downloader that asks for it isn’t one to trust.

The tool for the job

Everything above uses the Instagram Video Downloader. MP4 for each video in the post. In a carousel, every video is listed so you can pick the one you want.

Questions

Do Reels work here too?

Yes. Reel links work, or use the Instagram Reels downloader.
