Instagram is one of the most popular apps. It is constantly on the top free apps in both of the biggest app store — Apple App Store and Google Play Store.

According to most stats websites it has more than 800 Million active users per month. That’s a lot of users and this means that there are even more posts.

In this short article I will show you how with a very few steps you can download videos and multiple photos off Instagram.

How to download videos from Instagram?

  1. Go to the Chrome Web Store for Extensions
  2. Type in “pCloud Save” — pCloud Save is an extension that enables you to save all kinds of files from the web (photos, videos, text, music) and uploads them directly in the cloud so you can access them on any of your devices.
