Just found out you can download Instagram videos as actual files instead of screen recording. Why did nobody tell me this earlier. What do you all use for it?

<p data-pm-slice="1 1 []">Been doing this for a while. Screen recording is such a waste of time and the quality is always worse. Proper downloads are way cleaner. There are a few tools that work well for it

Quality drops, file size is larger than necessary, and anything on your screen ends up in the video. Actual downloads are the obvious solution and it is strange it took me so long to switch. The one I kept coming back to after trying a few is SnapInsta because it is fast and does not require an account. Copy the post link, paste it, full quality file in a few seconds. Works for photos and videos both. Use it all the time now. No idea why I waited so long[/size]</span>
