Instagram to MP4 — Download Videos as MP4
Clean, playable .mp4 files, in the quality Instagram stored.
Instagram streams video in a format built for its own app, which is why saving something off the page by hand gives you a fragment that will not play in a normal player. That is the wall people hit trying to grab a Reel manually.
This tool hands you a single, standard .mp4 you can open anywhere. Paste the Reel or post link, and the file comes down ready for Photos, an editor, or any player, at the resolution Instagram kept.
Copy the link from the Share menu first. Public Reels, feed videos, and carousel clips work. Private or close-friends posts need a login this tool does not have.

FAQ
What format do I get?+
A standard .mp4, playable on any device with no converter.
Do I need a converter?+
No. The file is already MP4, so there is no conversion step.
Why did saving the video manually give a broken file?+
Instagram serves video for its own player, so a hand-saved file often will not play. This stitches it into a working MP4.
Can I get every clip in a carousel?+
Yes. Each video in the set downloads as its own MP4.
