RoutineHub • Instagram Download

Instagram Download

Public or private posts, stories, highlights, IGTV, reels—without ever switching to Safari

Description

Instagram Download downloads photos and videos from posts, stories, highlights, IGTV, reels, etc. It’s fast and works with app and web on iPhone and iPad. You can also download media from private accounts that you follow.

The Scriptable app and iOS 14 or later are required. iOS 13-compatible version is maintained separately as Instagram Download 13.

Tap the ··· button on the top right corner of a post or story, select ‘Share to...’ then ‘Instagram Download’ and it will save the media onto your photo album.
On web, use the browser’s share button instead of the ··· button.
Private stories can be downloaded from web.
To switch accounts, run the shortcut directly from the Shortcuts app.

Instagram limits how many times within a certain period of time a device can access its server without logging in. That’s why previous versions, as well as many other shortcuts, either switch to a browser or fail for a while and come back to normal repeatedly, because they access Instagram without logging in when shared from the Instagram app. This shortcut keeps you logged in thanks to Scriptable that maintains web cookies across its webview and http request sessions automatically for you. In short, it works all the time within the app without hiccups.

Latest Release Notes

this shortcut is very sleek and lightweight, love it! the only complain i have is when there's a multi post the thumbnail of a video can be downloaded separately and when there are 10 pictures in the multi post you can't download them all because of the thumbnail of the video. could you please fix this? would be greatly appreciated!!

Great job. This downloader is the only one that works consistently for me, likely due to your special invalid URL fix in version 1.03. However, when I encounter those URL's, it first opens Safari, then I tap open, then share, and then I have to tap Instagram Download twice to start the download. Is tapping twice a bug or feature?
Reply · 5 months, 1 week ago

@gluebyte Member Author

Thanks for the feedback. It's not a feature of this shortcut but probably a bug in iOS 14 ignoring first tap because I also experience it with any shortcut sometimes when sharing. :)
Reply · 5 months, 1 week ago

@frac

Thanks for the quick response and hi again :) I think I know why it has to go twice. I noticed that by running the shortcut from Safari (instead of from Instagram). A notification says the webpage needs to be reloaded, please run the shortcut again. However if Safari is opened by the shortcut from within IG, there's no notification. Maybe there's a way to also show the notification so it's more obvious that the shortcut needs to be run a second time?

@gluebyte Member Author

Hi again. :) Hmm, the 'webpage reloading' alert popping up is different. However, the shortcut not responding to the first tap is because it doesn't kick off at all in this case. I think it's iOS's fault ignoring the tap and not launching the shortcut. Usually when a shortcut is selected from the menu, it is highlighted briefly. But nothing happens when the first tap is ignored, doesn't it?
Reply · 5 months, 1 week ago

@frac

Hmm, I think you're right. The 'webpage reloading' is different and it shows the shortcut has completed running. In the buggy case, it shows that I've tapped on it, and then 'nothing happens'. Hopefully it'll be an iOS fix in the future. Thanks for the support. :) Can I ask you though what's special about those invalid URLs? I only experience the issue at one ISP.
Reply · 5 months, 1 week ago

@gluebyte Member Author

With some more experiment, I think I found what causes it. When the shortcut launches Safari, the shortcut doesn't finish execution although I put an 'exit shortcut' action right after it. So when you open the share sheet in Safari and tap the shortcut, that first tap makes it exit not launch. Still an iOS bug that should be fixed. :) Regarding the shortcut not able to find any URLs when shared from the app, I think it's because Instagram forces users to log in to view the content, not always,
Reply · 5 months, 1 week ago

@gluebyte Member Author

not everywhere, but in some regions or ISPs or I don't know when or where. When shared from Safari, however, a shortcut has access to the webpage's full html source, so it's easier to find URLs to media. Hope this explains. :)
Reply · 5 months, 1 week ago

@frac

Yes, it only affects one of the several ISP's I use. I spent days checking the firewall thinking something was blocking shortcuts. :) I just tried using other downloader shortcuts from Safari and the results aren't satisfactory too. Keep up the good job!

How to update shortcut without deleting the old one

@gluebyte Member Author

When downloading a new version, you can tap "keep both" to keep the older one. May I ask why you would want to keep both?
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

I mean how can I download an update without doing all the things again. Why cant i have an option to tap update and just not worrying about it
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

@gluebyte Member Author

The shortcut checks for an update automatically once every five times you run the shortcut, and when it finds one, it presents a menu where you can download it with another tap. Would like it to check for an update every time?
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

So there if i tap update will it update there itself so that i dont have to redo everything
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

@gluebyte Member Author

If what you mean by "redo everything" is come to RoutineHub and download it manually, yes you don't have to do it. If you tap update it will download and install the update.
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

suddenly all posts send me to the ig website, did instagram changed something quietly?
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

@gluebyte Member Author

Probably. That happens when Instagram doesn't allow you to view posts without logging in, because when the shortcut is run from the app it has to download media without logging in. I've seen it happen in some regions or ISPs, but not always.
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

will you be able to fix it?
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

@gluebyte Member Author

It's not something I can fix because, if IG forces you to log in before accessing the media, the shortcut has no choice but to do its job in Safari.. But let me find some way around.
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

Yeah it happened to me, I was trying to download videos and it takes me to a webpage on safari if there’s any way you could fix this please? I tried to re-install the shortcut but it didn’t work.

In Safari, you need to tap Safari's share button, not the three dots in the post. It's described in the instructions page when the shortcut switches to Safari. :)

When you install/update the shortcut, it asks you two questions. First is where to save media, and next is if you want the instructions page. :)
Reply · 1 month, 3 weeks ago

Bro is there a way that you can make the shortcut to where we can save everyone’s videos on a profile? Like if I wanted to save everything
Reply · 4 months, 3 weeks ago

@gluebyte Member Author

What do you mean by everyone's videos on a profile? If you want to download multiple posts from a single user at once, you can probably use Instagram Media Saver https://routinehub.co/shortcut/5195/ as I don't think I'll support that.

Since this shortcut solely relies on your account to access private media, it cannot do anything unless you follow the account.

I have noticed over the last few days, it won’t let me download within the app and directs me to Safari were I have to repeat the same process again. Haven’t had problems before now, don’t know if there have been any changes.
Reply · 2 months ago

@gluebyte Member Author

Yes, I've been receiving many reports lately. It seems Instagram forces users to log in to view posts (the shortcut works only in Safari in this case) for some ISPs across the globe. It might not jump to Safari if you turn off wifi. And sometimes the restriction may go away in a few days.

Can you please describe how it doesn't work in Safari? Due to recent changes to Instagram severs, many users experience more cases of switching to Safari but they still manage to download media. An email to gluebyte(a)icloud,com with a screen recording would help.
Reply · 1 month, 4 weeks ago

First if you try to download a reel video it will switch to safari but you can’t find the shortcut within the share sheet. Second if you tried to download a video post within safari you will find the shortcut and the download start normally but then you can’t find any downloaded video in photos app or anywhere else.

I can receive security code but the "use one of your backup codes" link doesn't work in Scriptable or Safari on my iPhone.. The issue that you're not able to receive security codes is not related to the shortcut or Scriptable. I'm sorry but you will need to resolve the issue with Instagram. And it's a known and separate issue that you can download media on cellular but not on wifi.

There's no extra thing you need to do to use the shortcut other than simply installing Scriptable. It should work by hitting 'share to' then selecting Instagram Download.
