Why vid-down

Made for Reels

Clean video, no stamp

We fetch the original upload, so the clip you save has no floating logo or username bouncing across it.

Ready in seconds

Paste, tap, save. There is no queue, no countdown and no install step between you and your file.

Video or just the sound

Keep the full MP4 in HD, pick a lighter SD file for chat apps, or pull the audio out as an MP3.

No caps, no account

Save as many clips as you like. vid-down never asks you to register or hand over an email address.

Works on every screen

It runs in the browser on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac and Linux. Nothing to download but the video.

Private by design

We do not keep the videos you fetch or a history of your links. Files are removed as soon as they are sent to you.

FAQ

Questions, answered

Which Instagram content can I download?

Public Reels, video posts and the videos inside carousel posts. Stories and posts from private accounts are not available.

Do I have to log in to Instagram?

No. vid-down never asks for your Instagram username or password. Be wary of any tool that does.

Why does a Reel say it needs a login?

Instagram sometimes hides posts behind a login wall, especially age-restricted or regional content. Those posts cannot be fetched.

Is vid-down really free?

Yes. Every feature is free with no download limit. The site is paid for by the adverts you see on the page.

Do I need to create an account or install anything?

No. vid-down works entirely in your browser. You never have to sign up, log in or install an app or extension.

Is it legal to download videos?

Saving your own content, or content you have permission to use, for personal viewing is generally fine. Re-uploading or using other people's work without their consent can break copyright law and the network's rules. You are responsible for how you use what you download.
