Instagram IGTV Downloader

Download IGTV videos from Instagram

Instagram merged IGTV into its main video feed in 2022. There's no longer a separate IGTV tab or app — all long-form videos now live alongside regular posts. But plenty of older IGTV content is still on the platform, and this tool downloads all of it.

What happened to IGTV?

Instagram launched IGTV in 2018 for videos up to 60 minutes long. In October 2021, they combined IGTV and feed videos into a single "Instagram Video" format. The IGTV brand was retired, but the content didn't go anywhere. If you see a long video post on someone's profile, it might be a former IGTV upload. This downloader handles it the same way.

How to download

1. Find the Instagram video post (long or short, it doesn't matter)
2. Copy the post URL from the share menu or browser address bar
3. Paste it into the download field above
4. Click download and save the MP4 file

Video quality

Downloads are in MP4 format. Resolution depends on what was uploaded — older IGTV content might be 1080p or 720p. Instagram doesn't serve 4K even if the original was shot in 4K. Expect standard HD quality at best, which is fine for viewing on phones, tablets, and most monitors.

File size considerations

Long videos mean larger files. A 10-minute video at 720p could be 50-100 MB depending on the content. Make sure you have enough storage space before downloading, especially on mobile. Wi-Fi is recommended for longer videos to avoid eating through your data plan.

Works with all Instagram video types

• Former IGTV posts (long-form video)
• Regular feed video posts
• Reels
• Video content from carousels

Since Instagram treats all video content the same now, this IGTV downloader works on any video you find on the platform. The name is here for people still searching for "IGTV downloader," but under the hood, it handles every Instagram video format.
