FAQ

Do I need an Instagram account? No. Only public content is accessed without any login.

Can I download Reels without the watermark? Instagram Reels do not have embedded watermarks, so the downloaded video is clean.

How quickly do download URLs expire? Instagram CDN URLs typically expire within 2-4 hours. Download immediately after running.

Can I download from private accounts? No. Only publicly accessible content is supported.
