Since the launch of Instagram Reels in 2020, there have been several instances where we’ve wanted to download and re-post an IG Reel shared by another creator. However, unlike TikTok with its “Save Video” feature, Instagram has yet to grant users an easy way to download these Reels to save and re-purpose on their own account.

In the past, when an influencer or customer would share an IG Reel highlighting one of our client’s products or services, for example, we’d have to either ask them to email us a copy or attempt to screen record, while crossing our toes and fingers that we’d be able to crop out the buttons from Instagram’s interface without removing any of the video’s essential visual elements. Not ideal!

Luckily, our friend Taylor of Socially Taylored recently told us about iGram, a tool that allows you to download IG Reels, photos, carousels, videos, and IGTVs! All you need is the direct link to access the content. Read on to see how this Instagram Reels downloader works!
