Download Reels
Save Instagram Reels, including audio-only extraction, using the same downloader flow.
Guide
Download Reels
Paste a public Instagram Reel link into Pullify to fetch the video and, where available, audio-only formats Instagram exposes for that Reel. Whether the saved file carries Instagram's own watermark depends on what Instagram's servers publish for that specific Reel, not on anything Pullify does.
Reels are Instagram's short-form video format, and the fetch process is identical to any other Instagram link: paste it, and Pullify asks Instagram what formats exist for that Reel. Public Reels can be fetched; Reels from private accounts cannot, since Instagram doesn't serve that data publicly.
A common use case specific to Reels is saving just the audio — either because a trending sound is what you actually want, or because the video itself isn't the point. When Instagram exposes an audio-only stream for a Reel, it appears in the format list the same way a video format would.
On watermarks: Instagram sometimes embeds a small logo on Reels depending on how the video was shared or re-shared. Pullify doesn't add, remove, or edit anything in the downloaded file — you get whatever version Instagram's servers serve for that link. See the Download Video Without Watermark guide for a broader breakdown of watermark behavior across platforms.
Format notes for Reels
Video
Vertical MP4 formats at whatever resolution Instagram published for that Reel.
Audio-only
Available when Instagram exposes a separate audio stream — useful for saving a trending sound on its own.
Watermark
Determined by Instagram's own servers, not by Pullify; see the no-watermark guide for platform-by-platform notes.
How it works
Copy the Reel's link from Instagram's share menu.
Paste it into Pullify and fetch the media details.
Choose a video or audio-only format from the list.
Download the file to your device.
Tips
- Copy the link directly from the Reel's own share menu rather than from a repost in another app, which can point at a different, less reliable URL.
- If you specifically want a Reel's audio, check the format list for an audio-only entry before downloading the full video.
- For general Instagram troubleshooting — private accounts, expired content — see the main Instagram guide, which covers that ground in more depth.
Troubleshooting
Reel returns no formats: the account is likely private, or the Reel has been removed.
No audio-only option available: not every Reel exposes a separate audio stream — this varies by upload.
Downloaded video has a visible watermark: this reflects what Instagram served for that specific Reel, not something Pullify added or can remove.
FAQs
Can I download Reels from a private Instagram account?
No. Instagram only serves Reel data publicly for public accounts; private-account content cannot be fetched.
Does Pullify remove the Instagram watermark from Reels?
No — Pullify saves whatever format Instagram's servers expose for that Reel, watermark included or not, without editing the file.
Can I save just the audio from a Reel?
Yes, when Instagram exposes an audio-only stream for that specific Reel, it appears in the format list alongside the video options.
What resolution are Reels downloads?
Whatever Instagram encoded the Reel at, typically vertical and up to 1080p depending on the original upload.
Why does a reposted Reel fail to load?
Reposts sometimes link to a wrapper post rather than the original Reel — try finding and copying the original creator's link instead.
Legal & safe use
Only download media you own or have permission to use — whether that's allowed depends on your jurisdiction and the rights holder's terms, not on Pullify. Read our Responsible Use Policy and Copyright & DMCA Policy before downloading content you don't own.
