Frequently Asked Questions
How do I download videos from multi-slide carousel posts?
When you paste a link to a carousel post containing multiple videos, StorySave parses all media slides and provides a distinct download button for each individual clip.
Why does a downloaded video look blurry?
Downloaded video quality reflects the resolution uploaded by the creator and served by Instagram's CDN. If the video looks blurry, check that your download finished completely and play it outside your mobile browser in VLC or your native Photos app.

StorySave only accesses public Instagram content. To download video posts from private accounts you follow, use our Private Instagram Downloader utility.

You can process multiple posts simultaneously by visiting our Instagram Bulk Downloader, which allows you to submit up to five links in one go.
Is there any limit to how many videos I can download?
No. StorySave is completely free with no daily or hourly download quotas. You can save as many public videos as you need.
Will the downloaded video include audio?
Yes. If the original Instagram post has sound, your downloaded MP4 file will include the full synchronized audio track.
