Instagram ToS

I’m building an app which lets you mass download instagram posts from public profiles. And I integrate this Apify app for that feature. The user can then schedule those posts to be posted on their own instagram page.

Is the feature which lets you mass download posts (using this Apify app) against either Apify’s or instagram’s ToS if I launch the app commercially for others to use?

Hello, thank you for contacting us. I don't think this violates our Terms of Service, but I'll double-check with our legal team to ensure we're on solid ground.

Hey, to follow up on your question. After consulting with our legal team, here's some information I can provide. Using Apify for downloading data is acceptable. However, republishing content under your own name, such as photos and texts from others, would likely infringe on copyright and might breach Meta's ToS. It's crucial to avoid claiming others' work as your own. That said, we cannot guarantee what is or is not exactly a breach of Meta's ToS and cannot take any legal responsibility. Thank you for your understanding.
