Instagram to MP4
Instagram already stores its videos as MP4, so nothing is re encoded here. Paste a public Reel, feed video or story link below and the original file is handed to you at the highest quality the upload allows.
How to convert an Instagram video to MP4
Open the post in the app, tap the three dots and choose Copy link, or copy the address straight from the browser bar on desktop.
Paste it into the box above and press Download. The available files show up in a few seconds, then pick the one you want and it saves to your downloads folder or camera roll.
Reels, feed videos, IGTV and stories
Reels and feed videos resolve the same way, since both are ordinary uploads behind a public link.
Longer IGTV style uploads take a moment more to prepare because the file is bigger. Stories work while they are still live, inside the twenty four hour window.
What quality you get
The MP4 comes back exactly as Instagram stored it, usually 1080p for a Reel filmed on a modern phone. Nothing is re compressed on the way through.
A clip can never be sharper than the original upload, so a video posted in 720p returns in 720p no matter which tool you use.
MP4, MP3 or a transcript
Pick MP4 when you want the picture, and run it through the converter afterwards if you only need the audio as an MP3.
If you are after the words rather than the clip, the Reels transcript tool turns the same link into clean text.
