Instagram Reels Downloader
Save public Instagram Reels and posts as MP4 — no account needed.
Quick answer
Instagram Reels Downloader is a free web tool that saves public Instagram Reels and feed posts as MP4 files. Paste a link from instagram.com — a /reel/, /p/, or /tv/ URL — and the video downloads to your device in seconds. No account, app, or browser extension is required. Each finished file is stored for two hours and then removed automatically. Reels and in-feed posts are handled the same way, and a video inside a carousel is saved as a single clip.
