How to download Instagram Reels and Instagram TV Videos on Android and iOS.
If you use Instagram and are looking for a way to download Instagram TV video content. Follow along as this article guides you through the process, allowing you to store any Instagram reel or Instagram TV content to your device, either iOS or Android.
If you aren’t familiar with Instagram Reels, they are a new feature to Instagram that was adopted from the virally popular app Tik Tok, which allows far more editing options than Instagrams previous system. Reels are similar to Instagram Stories with extra editing options including audio tracks and unlike Instagram Stories, Reels won’t disappear after 24 hours. Instagram Reels also don’t appear on your feed and are instead given their own channel, are public and appear in the feeds of your followers.
Although Instagram and other social media services try their very best to make downloading content from profiles and pages as difficult as possible, people always seem to find a way to exploit gaps that are uncovered. As a result, it’s already possible to download Instagram Reels videos and Instagram TV content using two different third-party extensions found on the Google Play store and the Apple Store. For Android users, you can download an app called Video Downloader for Instagram – Repost Instagram and for iOS users, you can download an app called InSaver for Instagram from the App Store.

Next, click the Share icon on the Reel to bring up a list of sharing options. Now choose Share to… and select the Video Downloader app that you downloaded in the previous step. That would be Repost Instagram for Android and InSaver for iOS. After you have done this, your download will begin, and the video will be saved locally on your device.
