by Instagram Reels have become a popular way to share short, engaging videos with a wide audience. While Instagram provides a platform to discover and enjoy these short clips, there might be times when you want to download a Reel for offline viewing or sharing outside the platform. This write-up will guide you through a clever method of downloading Instagram Reels using Telegram, with a quick and easy trick.
Step 1: Open Instagram and Find the Reel Launch the Instagram app on your device and navigate to the Reel you wish to download. Once you’ve found the Reel, tap on the three-dot menu icon (usually located at the bottom-right corner of the post) to open more options.
Step 2: Copy the Video Link In the options menu, select the “Share to…” or “Share” option. A list of sharing options will appear. Choose the “Copy Link” option to copy the link of the Reel to your device’s clipboard.
Step 3: Access Telegram Now, open the Telegram app on your device. If you don’t have Telegram installed, you can download it from your app store and set up an account.
Step 4: Start a Chat Initiate a new chat by tapping on the pencil icon or the “New Message” button in Telegram.
Step 5: Paste the Link In the new chat, paste the copied Reel link by tapping and holding in the text input field and selecting the “Paste” option that appears.
Step 6: Modify the Link Before sending the message, edit the link. Add “dd” just before the word “instagram” in the URL. This simple modification is the key to unlocking the download feature. (for eg:https://www.ddinstagram.com/reel/CvQ)
Step 7: Send the Message Hit the send button to send the modified link in the chat.
Step 8: Download the Reel Once the modified link is sent, Telegram will automatically generate a preview of the video. Under the preview, you will find the option to “Download Video.” Tap on this option to initiate the download of the Instagram Reel to your device.
