Launch the installed browser on your computer / laptop. In the address bar, enter the instagram site, type in the username and password account, we pass authorization.

Thus, videos with a duration of no more than 1 minute (60 seconds.)
Downloading photos via apps
The social network instagram does not stand still and is constantly evolving. To make it convenient and comfortable to work with the application, the developer is created additional programs... There are special apps for downloading instagram photos to your phone. Applications such as Instagrab, Instasave, Insta Download are popular.
The principle of operation of the listed applications is the same. To use them to download photos from Instagram, you need to copy the links. To do this, touch the publication menu (three vertical dots), select the copy link item. We launch an additional application on the phone and paste the address we copied into a special line. Next, we touch the "download" button (down arrow). After loading, the saved publication will appear in your album or gallery.
The principle of working with applications is simple and easy. These external programs allow you to download not only pictures, but also videos. All mobile applications from official trading platforms are provided to users absolutely free of charge.

To do this, click on the checkbox under the image on the right side. Now your note is saved and at any time you can return to it and look.

Do not forget to update installed additional programs to latest version so that all additional programs work stably.
Instagram protects content that is on the social network. Therefore, downloading or saving photos from Instagram is not as easy as, say, from the same VKontakte, but it is still possible. There are a few tweaks and additional apps to do this.
The downside, however, is that in any case, you download the photo already processed by the owner and compressed by Instagram itself according to certain parameters. That is, the saved photo will most likely play as the original.

How to download a photo from Instagram on a computer
Let's start with the desktop. What do you usually need to download? Account avatar and any photo from the post. As for private profiles, you need to subscribe to them and when the owner confirms the subscription, all media will be open to you. The situation is more complicated with Stories, since they are on the screen for only a few seconds and disappear within 24 hours.
The easiest way is to open a post with the desired photo on your computer and press the Prt Sc key on your keyboard, usually it is in the same row with the f1-f12 keys.
After that, open any visual editor. Take Paint and press the key combination ctrl + v, or on a blank screen, right-click and select the "Paste" item in the menu that appears, or find the paste function on the toolbar.
A photo of the entire screen will be inserted and in order to get the picture we need, it is enough just to crop the edges and save the resulting image on your computer.
You can use the same method if you need to take an image from .
Help program: Qip Shot- allows you to screen only the selected area of the screen.
All browsers today have tools for web developers that allow you to view the code of any site. The tool is needed so that you can look for errors in the code and check how to fix them. But that's not the point.
Thanks to the tool, you can download photos from Instagram to your laptop or PC. Let's take an example of one of the most popular browsers - Google Chrome. To do this, open the post with the picture you like, right-click on a free part of the screen and select "View Code".
A panel with the site code will open at the bottom. In the upper left corner of the panel, there is an icon of the mouse hovering over the screen - click on it (this will allow you to see the code of the selected element).
Hover over the photo to highlight it and click. Now we go down below and find the image code (usually it starts with img src ...), point at it and click on the right mouse button again, in the menu that appears, click on the "Open in new tab" item.
The image opens in a new tab. Right-click in the image area again and select save as. We save the photo to the computer.
You can use the same method if you want to download someone's profile photo. For Stories, it will hardly be possible to use it, since you simply will not have time for their flickering.
How to save or download Instagram photos on your phone
Method 1 is official.
In this way, you can save your favorite photo to a selection. Blends can be sorted, modified, and out of date images can be removed. To save, open the photo you like in the application, and on the right side, click on the flag icon.
To view, return to home page profile and at the top click on the checkbox to view the saved photos.
This solution is suitable if you want to save a photo for inspiration or along with a post.
The downside is that after that you will not have an image on your phone and you will not be able to use it. And if the author delete a post that you have saved, then he will disappear from your collection.
Method 2 - screenshot.
The same principle as with a screenshot on a computer. Depending on how to take a screenshot on your device (you can find out in the instructions for the phone or on the manufacturer's website), press this button and the photo is saved to the gallery.
The disadvantages are the same, the photo will need to be cropped later, as well as it will be small and will lose quality when scaled.
Apps for saving photos on Android
Let's move on to applications that will help you download photos from Instagram to your phone running on the Android operating system.
One of the most popular applications (over ten million downloads). The app is free. You can download photos and videos.
QuickSave for Instagram (DStudio)- it is also a decent application with which you can quickly save photos to your phone. To download, you need to copy the URL of the post and then use the copied address in the application.
Insta Download- the advantage of the application is that you do not need to log in to Instagram to use it. Copy the url of the post and paste it into Insta Download. The photo will be saved in the service, for downloading - we find it in the program and download it.
Save & Repost for Instagram- allows you to download a lot of photos at a time. There are paid features such as saving files to the cloud.
Save Instagram photos on iOS
Saving photos on iPhone is a little more complicated. The problem is that they either appear in the app store or disappear for unknown reasons. Here are 2 apps working today to download photos from Instagram.
Rapid Save Reposter for Instagram- the program allows you not only to save any photos from Instagram to your phone, but also to make reposts.
InstaSaver for Instagram- also on this moment works and is easy to download, both photos and videos.
Good afternoon friends.
The social network Instagram is developing rapidly, new functionality appears regularly, errors and problems are eliminated. However, each program has its own limitations. They can be a flaw of the creators or their deliberate decision.
The lack of a direct ability to download photos from Instagram is a feature of this platform. And this is understandable. People are more willing to post pictures, knowing that no one can use them. And yet, there are workarounds to do this. This is exactly what we'll talk about today and learn how to save a photo from Instagram.
The solution to this problem is quite simple. We go to the application on a mobile device.
We swipe across the screen from right to left and at the bottom of the panel that opens, click on the gear icon.
We go to the section "Original publications" in the Android phone or "Source photos" in iPhones. Here we set the levers to the desired position to save photos and videos on the device.
This is the only way to download images provided on Instagram itself. Everything else is sleight of hand and our resourcefulness.
Taking a screenshot
This is a way for everyone to copy a photo from someone else's profile on Instagram. This can be done on different devices.
In phone
To take a photo of the screen, you need to press a specific button or key combination. They differ depending on the manufacturer and model of the gadget. I have a phone from Asus, in it you need to press and hold the "Recent Documents" button in the lower right corner.
Possible combinations on phones from other manufacturers:
- screen lock + volume down - they are usually located on the side panel of the device;
- holding the power button for a long time until the menu appears;
- menu button + "Back";
- in iPhones, press the round "Home" button in combination with the lock located on the side of the gadget.
If you cannot find the desired combination or magic button, go to the Play Store or the App Store and download one of the applications:
- ScreenMaster, Screenshot Easy, Screenshot Pro, Lightshot for Android or Screen Capture for Windows phones.
Screenshots are saved in a folder with all photos or in a separate section in the gallery.
Please note that everything that is currently visible on the screen will be saved and you may have to crop the picture. I will talk about this further.
On the computer
We have an article on our blog about. It covers 5 methods with details and explanations. I will show one of them, which is available to everyone without installing additional programs.
Find the desired photo in the web version of Instagram and press the "Prt Sc" button on the keyboard. It is located at the very top, closer to the right edge. Now we go to the "Start" menu, which is hidden under the Windows icon in the lower left corner of the screen. And we find the standard Paint program.
Press the key combination "Ctrl" + "V" or find the button "Paste" or "Paste" in the top panel. A screen image should appear in front of us, including the photo that we want to save.
We have copied the entire screen, and we only need a photo. Therefore, we cut off everything unnecessary. To do this, click on the "Select" or "Select" option and outline the desired area.
Press the key combination "Ctrl" + "C". Then we open a new document.
Click "Insert" and save the resulting image. If it turns out to be smaller than the white field, remove the empty space for the lower right corner.
Using the address bar
This is a very simple option. Open the post on the web version of Instagram. In the address bar, after the url, add "media? Size = l" without quotes.
We press "Enter". The desired photo will appear on the screen. Right-click on the picture and select "Save Image As ..."
Loading images via page code
This method is available only on a computer; I couldn't do this trick on my phone. We open the publication in the web version of the social network, press the right mouse button, then "Page Source Code".
In the new window, press the key combination "Ctrl" + "F". A search bar will appear at the bottom or top. We write "display_resources" in it. The text will be highlighted in the program. We need to copy the line next to this inscription, starting with "https" and ending with "cdninstagram.com" and paste it into the address bar of the browser.
The photo will open. We call the context menu, "Save picture as ..." Done, we have uploaded a photo from Instagram.
Programs and services
Until now, we have used the tools at the disposal of any person on the phone and computer. But there are also specially designed programs for downloading photos from Instagram. Let's take a look at some of them.
Browser extension
When I need a full version of an application on my computer, I use the Google Chrome extension. To download it, go to the menu, "Additional tools", "Extensions".
After that, an icon will appear on top.
Click on it. We see a picture of a phone with a full version of Instagram and a nice bonus: each photo has a button for downloading it.
Phone programs
There are applications for iPhones and Android devices. All you need to do is go to the Play Store or App Store and install one of them:
- InstaSave,
- FastSave,
- QuickSave,
- iSave and others.
They work on approximately the same principle. Go to Instagram, open the post, click on the three dots next to it and select "Copy link". Then we go to the download application, insert the publication address. After a few simple steps, the photo becomes available for saving.
The simplest and most stable application at the moment is FastSave for Android. Try it out.
Online services
To download photos from Instagram, it is not necessary to install programs, you can use services online. The most popular resources for this are:
- InstaGrabber.ru,
- instagrabber.net,
- savefrominsta.com,
- zasasa.com,
- igrab.ru.
They have the same principle. I'll show it using the InstaGrabber service as an example.
First, go to the web version of Instagram and open the post of interest to us. Copy the address from the browser line and paste it into the line on the instagrabber.ru website. And then click on the arrow.
A photo from the publication will appear on the screen. It remains only to click on the "Download photo" button.
How to save other people's posts on Instagram without downloading
If you don't need to download photos to your device, but just save them as a bookmark on your Instagram, click on the checkbox under the post you like.
Saved posts can be seen in your profile. On your phone, swipe from right to left and select the appropriate section.
On the web version of Instagram, you just need to go to the "Saved" tab.
To split posts by topic and put them into folders, click on the checkbox and hold this position. A window will appear where you can select a directory or create a new one and save the entry to it. A nice feature is that no one can see these posts on your profile.
Conclusion
So we examined all the main ways to copy a photo from Instagram. I will briefly list them again:
- Save your pictures with the appropriate settings.
- Take screenshots.
- Append "media? Size = l" to the end of url.
- Extract photos from the page code.
- Use third-party services and programs.
- Copy the entire post to your profile.
When using unverified software, be careful. Install a reliable antivirus and, if possible, do not enter data from your main account on the social network. And remember that all materials posted by users on Instagram are protected by law as objects of copyright.
Write in the comments which method you liked the most and suited you, what questions remained, what difficulties you encountered.
And I say goodbye to you. Goodbye friends.

The main assistants (they are also the most reliable) in obtaining Visa Virtual -.
It is better to entrust the creation of the card to the banks, because in case of complaints from the user it will be possible to have an absolutely real defendant who does not need to be looked for for a long time and who can always help with solving the problem that has arisen.
You can also use sites that offer to open a virtual card, but each customer of such a card makes it at his own peril and risk - no one can guarantee that the site was not created for fraudulent purposes.
In which banks can I get a Visa Virtual card?
Banks that are members of the Visa International program deal with virtual credit cards. You can get a card simply by going to a bank branch or by going to its website (only official). V Russian banks can create both ruble Visa Virtum cards and cards of other currencies for more convenient shopping. Almost all banks open virtual cards, some charge a fee, and some offer them as a bonus for using certain financial offers.
Tariffs and conditions of receipt
For example - Sberbank issues virtual cards Virtual Visa Virtum when using the Service Packages "Universal", "Status", "Special", etc. (if the client wishes to have this virtual card). If the client does not use any service packages, but wants to create a virtual Visa card from Sberbank, then opening a Visa Virtum card will be paid. Russian Standard Bank simplifies obtaining such a card to a minimum - it does not cost a penny to create it, even if the client was not a bank user before.
In order to receive a Visa Virtum card, you need to have a passport (to indicate its number and series, surname and username) and a phone number. One of the most reliable sites that offer to create such a map is. This brand is an official employee of Visa International, so there is no need to fear that the site will deceive a potential client and take money for itself.
Using such a card is quite easy and simple. To make an online purchase, its owner specifies only the details given to him when creating the card. Visa does not charge any fees for paying for purchases, so using this virtual payment system is also beneficial. Commissions may be charged by the Internet resource itself, the purchases on which are paid for (as payment for the "care" of the site employees about the ordered things or services), however payment system has nothing to do with them. Before issuing cards, you should figure out
How to replenish a virtual Visa card
To replenish your account, you just need to go to your bank's online page, where the virtual card was opened. Next, there is a regular transfer from an electronic wallet to Visa. You can also just come to the branch of the same bank and replenish the account using cash - consultants will help with this. The virtual card itself is free, but some banks charge a percentage or percentage of their "big help" fixed amount- it depends on which bank you hit.

Create a virtual card online on the website of a bank that provides such products, almost every client can - the owner of debit or credit plastic, on whose account there are enough funds to write off the fee for this service.
Although the financial institution practically does not bear the costs, generating for the client a set of requisites for payments on the Internet, the production of a card is rarely subject to a commission. For example, in Nomos-Bank a virtual card can be issued free of charge only within the framework of a promotion valid until the end of November - through the NOMOS-Link service for a maximum period of six months and with a limit of up to 50 thousand.
Below we will look at how to create a virtual card using the example of the products of those few institutions that do not charge a fee for its issuance - Credit Europe Bank and UBRD.

Free virtual card Credit Europe Bank is issued as an additional to the main "plastic" of the clients of this financial institution. When it is created in the Internet Bank, the currency, limits and validity period of the card, as well as the account to which it is linked, are indicated.
After ordering the card, the user is sent (to the phone number specified as a contact) a message with the details necessary for making payments on the Web.
A holder of a credit card or "plastic" with an overdraft from Credit Europe Bank can order only one free virtual card.
Free virtual UBRD card
UBRD clients can create a virtual Visa Virtuon card using a special online service called Telebank. When ordering a card, you can determine its limit and the number of transactions allowed on the account.
Unlike Credit Europe Bank, UBRir allows issuing up to 2 free virtual cards per day. After confirming the order of the card, the system displays its details on the display: promo code, number, CVV-2 and expiration date. The information received must be written down, since after exiting Telebank the card details will not be saved.
You can also connect SMS banking to the virtual card for free at the Ural Bank for Reconstruction and Development.
