- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 15097235, a month agoIt works fine for me! I had to enable the the "Optional permission for added functionality":
Add-ons >
Extensions >
Instab >
Permissions tab >
Toggle on "Access your data for sites in the *://instagram.com domain"
• Downloads 1 image at a time out of gallery posts, non-configurable
• No config or advanced features to make it stand out much from other extensions; but sometimes simplicity is a benefit
• Pop-up buttons stick out against dark mode theming, I find this mildly annoying
• Open source viewable on GitHub; theoretically less likely to be mining bitcoin on my PC or selling my passwords than some alternatives :) - Rated 4 out of 5by Deniz Kocatepe, a year agoIt would be great if we could download the files along with the username.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Firefox user 16840235, a year agoEffortlessly downloads photos from both posts and stories, but as of a few weeks ago, it no longer works for downloading videos. There are other add-ons that are apparently still capable of this, but it’s a shame that it cannot be done anymore with Instab in particular, as it holds the distinction of being the only add-on that I know of which can successfully download stories from a mobile device, as while it isn’t supported for Firefox Mobile, it actually works great running it on Android via Firefox Nightly! Granted, that’s a workaround rather than an ”official” use that I’d expect support for, but the fact that I can still use it even when I don’t have access to a desktop is a great perk and has been tremendously useful, especially given the ephemeral nature of Stories.
The issue with video stories (and frequently but not always video posts) has cropped up in the past for Instab and was fixed by the dev, and even though it hasn’t been updated in eight months, the same issue also cropped up around four months ago and lasted for a while before seemingly resolving itself, so I can only hope that Instab will return to full functionality one way or another again soon, as it has been the most useful Instagram downloader I’ve ever used. - Rated 4 out of 5by silvatek, a year agoWorks fine for saving stills. Will save one video from a post but multiple videos fool it, sadly. Haven't tried with stories.
- Rated 4 out of 5by ldh00vt, 2 years agoDoesn't work on video stories right now. It happened before but was fixed after about a day. Hopefully it starts working again soon.
- Rated 4 out of 5by itohamo, 2 years agoIG story videos are not detected anymore, there is no button for story videos. Only images. Need update.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Colchón Amarrado, 2 years agoEl botón de abrir video en otra pestaña esborba, por favor quítalo... the button to open video in another tab does not work, annoying, remove it!
De los pocos que sigue funcionando actualmente... otra forma es escribir sfrom.net/+URL pero es muy molesto! - Rated 4 out of 5by Pê, 2 years agoSometimes both options simply don't appear when hovering. It would be nice to include a download icon instead.

- Rated 4 out of 5by Hugo Miranda, 3 years agoÓtimo! Posso abrir as imagens para ver maior, ou baixar diretamente.
Exatamente o que eu precisava.
Só senti fata da função de baixar o perfil todo. - Rated 4 out of 5by ASHFOX, 3 years ago
