Save Any Public Instagram Reel in 1080p
rawlink is a free Instagram Reels downloader that works entirely in your browser. Paste any public Instagram Reel URL (instagram.com/reel/...) and rawlink returns the 1080×1920 vertical MP4 in seconds — no Instagram login, no app, no extension. The downloaded file is the clean source MP4 stored on Instagram's CDN, with no Instagram logo or username overlay burned into the video.
Instagram does not embed an in-video watermark on Reels at the CDN level, so the file you download from rawlink is genuinely clean — ready to repost on TikTok or YouTube Shorts without an extra watermark removal step. Any text, stickers or graphics the creator added during editing remain in the file (those are baked into the video itself), but the platform-level watermark is not present.
Works on iPhone Safari, Android Chrome, Windows and Mac. Reels download at the resolution Instagram has stored — typically 1080p Full HD for recent uploads, sometimes 720p for older content. There is no daily limit and no captcha. Note that Reels from private Instagram accounts cannot be downloaded — those require login and rawlink only accesses publicly visible content.
How to Use Instagram Reels Downloader
-
01 Copy the Reel URL
On Instagram, tap the three-dot (⋯) menu on the Reel and choose Copy Link. On desktop, copy the URL from your browser address bar.
-
02 Paste into rawlink
Paste the Reel URL into the input field above and press GET. rawlink fetches the video from Instagram's CDN in 2–5 seconds.
-
03 Choose the 1080p MP4
Tap the available MP4 option in the results — typically the 1080p original quality the creator uploaded.
-
04 Save to your device
On iPhone the file goes to Files → Downloads. Tap the file then Share → Save Video to move to Camera Roll. On Android it lands in Downloads and shows up in Gallery automatically.

In-Depth Comparisons & Reviews
Reels, Feed Video, IGTV — and What Isn't
rawlink works with any publicly visible Instagram video: Reels, standard feed video posts, and older IGTV clips. Paste the post URL (the link you get from the … menu → 'Copy link') and you'll get the original MP4. Videos inside a carousel post work too — you'll see each video the post contains in the results.
What can't be downloaded: Stories and anything from a private account. Both require being logged in to view, and rawlink only ever accesses content that's already public — it never asks for your Instagram login, because it doesn't need one and shouldn't have it.
About Instagram Video Quality
Instagram re-compresses video on upload, so the file on Instagram's servers is already lighter than the creator's original export. rawlink hands you that exact stored file with no further re-encoding, so there's no extra quality loss from downloading — what you get is the same video Instagram serves in the app.
