How to download IGTV and long videos
IGTV and long-form Instagram videos are longer than Reels and regular feed videos. Use this page to save public long videos as MP4 files with their original sound, without logging in or installing an app.
Steps to download a long video
- Open the public IGTV or long video on Instagram.
- Tap Share, then Copy link.
- Paste the link in the box at the top of this page.
- Tap Download, preview the video, and save the MP4 file. Longer files may take a little longer to download.
Long videos and file size
Long videos are larger files, so a stable connection helps. The tool returns the video in the quality Instagram provides, with HD where available, and it does not add a watermark. Private, deleted, or login-restricted long videos cannot be downloaded, and the tool will say so clearly.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between IGTV and Reels? IGTV videos are longer, often several minutes, while Reels are short vertical clips. Use this page for longer videos and the Reels page for short ones.
Do long videos keep their sound? Yes. MP4 downloads include the original audio.
Do I need to log in? No. Public long videos download without an Instagram account.
Is it free? Yes, the IGTV Downloader is free.
What you get from this IGTV downloader
Use the IGTV downloader at the top of this page for a public long-form Instagram video. Paste the link, preview the result, and save the MP4 file with its original sound. You do not need an Instagram account, and this tool does not add a watermark or change the video.
Long videos save as MP4 files in HD where Instagram provides it for that post. The Original option is also offered, but the file you receive still depends on what Instagram makes available, so Original does not guarantee a larger file. Short vertical clips belong on the Reels downloader, and regular feed videos on the video downloader.
Example input guidance
A long video link usually follows the pattern https://www.instagram.com/tv/CODE/ or https://www.instagram.com/p/CODE/ — the CODE part identifies that post. Copy the whole link from the video itself, not a link to a whole profile, because the tool fetches one post at a time. Private, deleted, or login-required videos will return an honest error instead of a fake file.
Saving long videos on your device
Long videos are larger files, so use a stable connection and let the download finish before you play it. On iPhone and iPad, saved videos usually appear in Photos or Files. On Android, look in Downloads or Gallery. On Windows and Mac, look in your browser Downloads folder.

More questions about long video downloads
Why does a long video take longer to save?
Long videos are larger files, so they need more time to download than a short clip. A stable connection helps.
Do long videos keep their original sound?
Yes. MP4 downloads include the original audio track that Instagram makes available for that public video.
Can I use a long video I downloaded?
Only if you own the video or have permission to use it. Saving a file does not give you ownership. See the Terms and Disclaimer.
That is the whole process: copy the long video link, paste it, preview the result, and save the MP4 file.
