Save one or all
Tap a photo to save it, or use Download all to get the whole carousel. Files are saved as JPG.
Carousel posts
A carousel can hold up to twenty photos and videos. GramSave lists every slide in order, so you can pick the ones you want or save them all in one go. Video slides come as MP4 next to the photos.
On phones, saving many files at once can trigger a "download multiple files?" prompt — allow it once and the rest follow.
Full-size photos, not screenshots
A screenshot captures your screen, crops the edges and adds compression on top. Downloading gives you the actual image file Instagram stores, at the largest size it serves, with nothing cropped.
Which photos can be downloaded
Photos from public posts. Pictures on private accounts are only shown to approved followers, so they can't be fetched by a website. Profile pictures and Stories aren't part of this tool.
Looking for more than photos?
The Recent Follow app for iPhone and Android saves public Reels and videos straight to your camera roll, lets you watch public Stories, and shows who an account followed most recently.
Frequently asked questions
Can I download all photos from a carousel post?+
Yes. Paste the post link, then tap Download all. Each slide is saved as its own file.
What format are the photos?+
JPG, the format Instagram stores them in. Video slides in a carousel are saved as MP4.
Are the photos full resolution?+
You get the largest version Instagram serves for that post. It's the same file Instagram shows in the app, though Instagram itself may have resized the creator's original when it was uploaded.

No. Instagram doesn't send any notification when a public photo is downloaded.
Can I download photos from private accounts?+
No. Private posts are only visible to approved followers.
