Instagram Carousel Downloader
Download Instagram carousels with all slides intact — free, no signup. Save 10-slide tutorials, design references, and educational threads in their original order.
Why People Use This Tool
Instagram carousels are where the most-saved educational content on the platform lives. Designers post 10-slide tutorials. Cooks publish step-by-step recipes one image per slide. Career coaches drop concise advice carousels that drive 5× more saves than single posts.
The problem: when you save a carousel inside Instagram, you can only access it through the app. The slides aren't exportable, you can't flip through them in your design tool, and if Instagram ever locks your account or removes the post you lose the entire educational asset.
This carousel downloader pulls every slide as a separate file in posting order — slide 1 first, slide 10 last. Photo slides save as JPG, video slides as MP4 (yes, IG carousels mix media types). Filenames are numbered so you can scroll through them in any local image viewer or import into a design tool with their order preserved.
What You Get
All Slides In Order
Numbered for sequence
Carousels download as separate files numbered `01`, `02`, ..., `10` in posting order. Open the entire carousel in any image viewer and scrub through slides as quickly as you would on Instagram — but offline, exportable, and editable.
Photo + Video Slides
Mixed-media carousels supported
Instagram carousels can mix photo and video slides in the same post. Each slide downloads in its native format — JPG for photos, MP4 for videos — preserving original resolution and audio (where present).
Original Quality, No Compression
IG's upload-resolution source
We pull the source assets from Instagram's CDN, not the downscaled previews shown in the feed. Photos download at upload resolution (typically 1080×1080 or 1080×1350); videos at full bitrate.
Up to 10 Slides Per Carousel
Instagram's native carousel limit
Instagram caps carousels at 10 slides. We download all of them — whether the post is a 3-slide design teaser or a full 10-slide tutorial. No artificial limits, no "first slide only" gotcha.
No Instagram Login Required
Anonymous, browser-based
You don't need an Instagram account, browser extension, or desktop app. Paste a public carousel post URL and all slides save to your device.
Works on Every Device
iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac
Browser-based — works on any device with internet. Particularly useful on iPhone where saving carousel slides individually otherwise requires repeated screenshot taps and loses image fidelity.
