1. Definitely worth spending 1-5 seconds to look at an ad for the quality of the downloader, your video is ready once the ad is finished! and if the app crashes for ANY reason, when you reopen it, it will give you 6 hours of ad-free downloads for the inconvenience, which I LOVE! Thank you, I will update as time goes on!It downloads fine, and has minimal ads, but every so often it will stop you from downloading a video, and tell you that you need to sign in with your Instagram account to download a private video, even if your video is definitely not private, which is very sketchy.
2. But no way in hell I'd pay a recurring fee just to download Instagram videos when there are other apps out there that do the same thing.Edited: Works great! Changed from 4 to 5-star rating for the sheer fact the developers cared enough to respond.
3. It said every single video I was trying to download was on a private account, when I literally found the videos on the explore page, public.
4. What's worse is that it requires you to login to download certain content, and the login function litetally never works; I verified my password is good and I'm putting everything correctly of course, it just doesn't work.
5. Uninstalling.The app used to work fine and the ads didn't annoy me, but now its constantly asks me to login to download videos from public accounts, which it should not need to.
6. They insist they cannot access your personal data, however it is at the very least incredibly annoying, and at worst deceptive to try and force a sign in like thisFirst thing you'll notice is you're prompted to click a agreement on how your Meta data is collected.
7. I was unable to get a single item to download despite using multiple methods the app claims to be the official ways to use it.
8. It works most of the time, but for some reason, it doesn't work with most reels.It used to be perfect, but now oftentimes you have to share the link at least twice for the app to even recognize that there's a new one.
9. Eventually, it wouldn't allow me to download anything at all unless I logged into my Instagram account.
10. š To the devs: although the ads are annoying, I understand the revenue for ads is needed and as mentioned previously, super easy to click out of the multiple ads.
11. And you can forget trying to download multiple things in a row.
