In the era of social media networking, different social platforms are rising daily where subscribers are sharing their stories, event, incident, knowledge, friends and family and experience of every moment. Instagram is one of the most popular social media platform to share photos and videos (it is ranked one with highest growth) where users can share any moment of their life through photos or videos. It is easy and available to share instant photos or videos with friends and family.
But one problem with Instagram is that you cannot download any photo or video from Instagram directly on your phone. Instagram don’t have any option to download it, though there is many software in Google Play Store and Apple App Store. Most of the Apps don’t work properly or contains lot of ads. Some of the useful apps which are used to download photos or videos from Instagram are: InstaSave, Insta Download, and Easy Downloader for Instagram, Repost (iOS).
Day by day diversified use of Instagram is evolving primarily though it was used to share personal stuff but now it’s more than that many people are making their luck by using it like Millionaire Mentor, Many companies and people are also using it to gear up their sales and built a strong brand identity. If one can create a video or photo which go viral and attract more attention of the follower.
Not only that this photo and video sharing apps also can help people to create social awareness, discuss about the public topic and create positive awareness among the people.
Following are Step by step guide to download photos and videos from Instagram on smart phones:
As one can’t download photo or video from Instagram directly, he or she need to go to Google Play Store or Apple App store to download required file. For Smart Phone (Both Android and iOS) one can use InstaSave which is pretty good to download photo and video.
Step 1:
Go to Google Play Store for Android or Apple App Store for iPhone. Search “InstaSave in search bar.
Step 2:
Install “InstaSave” in phone. After installing it open it on phone. Log into Instagram Account form “Instasave” by giving your username, password and tap log in.
Step 3:
After logging in to “InstaSave” account open Instagram account and select a photo or video that you want to download. Tap in to 3 dots (Marked rectangular in the in the first photo). Than some option will come (which is given in second photo):
- Copy Share URL
- Share on Messenger
- Share on WhatsApp
Select “Copy Share URL” which is marked rec tangular in in 2nd photo.
Step 4:
Than go to “InstaSave” and it will open like Pic 1, tap into the rectangular area that is top of “Open Instagram” and on InstaSave. When “InstaSave” is open photo or video will be automatically downloaded on the phone.
In some cases may be photo or video will not be downloaded automically and another page will be open which is not like the above pic. Rather below page will be opened with a download sign (Circled in the pic)
After tapping the download button; Photo or Video will start to download automatically on your device.
Step 5:
Go to gallery, photo or video will be there. Enjoy the downloaded photo or video.
If you face any difficulty while using “InstaSave” app, you can use any other app (which I described earlier in the beginning of the article). Most of the apps function in the same way.
One important thing should be shared with all that, in Instagram no photo rights belong to Instagram but all the rights of any photo or video belong to the user of the photo or video and Instagram strictly prohibit plagiarism. So before using any photo; one should take prior permission from the user of the photo or video but there is no restriction to download any photo or video from Instagram.
