Rated 3 out of 5
by ohdembein, 3 years agoAfter updating to version 1.2.2 it no longer works for regular photo posts or in the main timeline. The only time the download arrow appears for me now is on Stories and Reels. Was working fine prior to the update. I disabled all other add-ons to make sure there was no conflict as well. Hope it gets fixed as this was the only app of it's kind still working.

- Rated 4 out of 5by AliceYan, 10 days agoHi! This is my favourite add-on.
Unfortunately now video story download seems to be broken and often the extension stops working and I have to disable then enable it to start downloading again.
May you find the time to fix it, please?
Anyway, thank you for your work. - Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14111115, 11 days agoStory Video Download is broken.
I'll delete the review as soon as it's fixed. - Rated 3 out of 5by ryandtw, 15 days agoThanks for the extension, but as of 4/28/2026 downloading videos isn't working properly (unless it's from a regular profile page; downloading videos after directly opening video link or through reels tab or through stories does NOT work)
- Rated 4 out of 5by 4Sage, 3 months agoThere are some advantages, but it downloads some videos without sound.
- Rated 4 out of 5by ffuser1010, a year agoThis add-on is really useful and easy to use. The only downside is that it removes your like instantly after you've given one on a post. It's been like this for years. If only it could be fixed, I'd happily give it 5 stars.

- Rated 2 out of 5by Krisz86, a year agoThe download button does not appear everywhere and if this add-on is active, it will also slow down the page loading.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Crispy7, a year agoBack to working smoothly, great extension. Only issue I'd raise is reels downloaded from a users page aren't saved with the time of the upload, but the current real time.

ps: it will crash with "Facebook Container" add ons - Rated 1 out of 5by mb9023, a year agosometimes works but uses crazy resources and lags my entire firefox every time I open a new ig page. have found another 'downloader for instagram' extension that made me realize I didn't know ig could be so fast.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 14650413, a year agoThis extension led to me not being able to access Instagram at all. As soon as I disabled it, access returned.
- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 18804406, a year agoConfirming this is indeed broken, first image appears very zoomed, subsequent pictures appear grey, and no download button.
Hope it gets fixed because until now it's been a great app. - Rated 5 out of 5by kris_x, a year agobroken by now. pics are extra zoomed, download button on preview pane disappeared and still makes instagram really slow and even crash after preview several dozen pics

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 16156332, 2 years ago사진도 영상도 잘 다운로드 되네요! 아쉬운 점이라면 키보드 단축키(keyboard shortcut)으로도 다운로드 할 수 있었으면 더 좋겠어요
- Rated 3 out of 5by Nw994, 2 years agoIt worked great until a few days ago. Unfortunately, the download function no longer works properly. Photos almost always work, but downloading videos is no longer possible. I would be happy if someone took a look at it and the problem can be solved.
