An Instagram video downloader tool is an online service, app, or software that allows users to download videos from Instagram to their device. With this tool, you can save Reels, Stories, IGTV videos, and posts so you can watch them later without an internet connection.

Most Instagram video downloader tools work by copying the video link from Instagram and pasting it into the downloader. The tool then processes the link and provides a downloadable video file, usually in MP4 format.

These tools are commonly used for offline viewing, content reference, or personal use. However, users should always respect copyright rules and Instagram’s terms of service when downloading and using content.

 Downloading videos from Instagram for personal use is generally allowed, but sharing or using them for commercial purposes without permission may violate copyright laws and Instagram's terms of service. 

Usually, no. Most Instagram video downloader tools do not require you to have an Instagram account to download videos. You just need to:

1. Find the video on Instagram
2. Copy the video’s link (URL)
3. Paste it into the downloader tool
4. Then the tool will let you download the video

However:

• If the Instagram video is from a private account, you cannot download it without having access (i.e., following that private account and being logged in).
• Some tools may offer features that work better if you’re logged into Instagram, but login is not required in most cases.

✅ Main point: No Instagram account needed for public videos — only the video link.

No, the tool can only download videos from public Instagram accounts. Videos from private accounts are not accessible.

 The tool typically supports common video formats such as MP4. Check the tool's specifications for more details. 

It depends on the tool you are using.
Most Instagram video downloader tools do not have a strict limit — you can download as many videos as you want. But:

1. Some tools may limit downloads per day if you are using the free version.
2. Premium tools or paid plans usually let you download unlimited videos.
3. If the video is private or restricted, you can’t download it even if the tool lets you download many files.

✅ Short answer: For public videos, usually no limit, but some tools may have daily or usage limits on free accounts.

Copy the URL of the Instagram video you want to download, paste it into the tool's input field, and click the download button. The video will be saved to your device.
