Download Instagram Posts, Reels, Stories, and Highlights in high quality directly to your chosen local folder. InstaGoo Downloader — High-Quality Instagram Media Downloader InstaGoo Downloader is a fast, powerful, and standalone Chrome extension that lets you download Instagram Posts, Reels, Stories, and Highlights in original high quality directly to a chosen folder on your computer. No external servers, no third-party accounts, and no data collection. Everything runs 100% locally inside your browser using your existing Instagram session. ================================================== KEY FEATURES ================================================== • Complete Media Coverage: Download Feed Posts (single photos & multi-image carousels), Reels (full HD MP4), Active Stories, and Highlight albums. • Direct Local Folder Saving: Uses modern File System Access to save files directly into your chosen folder, organized cleanly by username and category (e.g., InstaGoo/username/reels/). • Full HD Profile Picture: Automatically detects and saves the target account's high-resolution avatar. • Rich Metadata Export (Optional): Exports captions, timestamps, like counts, and comments into formatted JSON files inside a /meta folder. • Smart Auto-Detection: Automatically detects the profile of the Instagram tab you are currently viewing. When browsing between profiles, InstaGoo smoothly auto-switches target (while safely locking during active downloads). • Safe & Private: Works locally within your browser. Your login credentials and cookies never leave your machine. ================================================== HOW TO SET UP & USE (STEP-BY-STEP) ================================================== 1. LOG IN TO INSTAGRAM: Open Google Chrome and make sure you are logged in to your account at instagram.com. 2. OPEN INSTAGOO DOWNLOADER: Click the InstaGoo extension icon in your Chrome toolbar (or open it in the Chrome Side Panel). 3. SELECT YOUR DESTINATION FOLDER: Click the "Choose Folder" button. ⚠️ IMPORTANT FOLDER GUIDANCE: Due to Chrome and Windows security sandbox rules, do NOT select root system folders directly (such as Desktop, Downloads root, or C:\ drive directly). 👉 Instead, create and select a dedicated subfolder (for example: inside your Downloads folder, create a folder named "InstaGoo", or create a folder on another drive such as D:\InstaGoo). 4. VISIT ANY INSTAGRAM PROFILE: Browse to any Instagram profile page in Chrome. InstaGoo will automatically detect the username and load their profile picture preview in the side panel. 5. SELECT CONTENT TO DOWNLOAD: Toggle the categories you want to download with one click: • 📸 Posts (Single photos & Carousels) • 🎬 Reels (Videos in HD) • ⏱️ Stories (Active 24h stories) • 🌟 Highlights (Curated story albums) • Limit (Optional: set maximum items per category, or leave as 0 for all) • Metadata (Optional: toggle JSON metadata export ON/OFF) 6. START DOWNLOAD: Once your folder is selected and a profile is detected, the button will turn colorful and display "Download @username". Click "Start Download" — your media files will begin downloading directly into your folder with live progress indicators. v1.0.1 (2026-10-24) - Removed unused permissions (downloads, scripting) for Chrome Web Store compliance - Fixed folder picker crash by switching to a dedicated tab - Added guard against selecting root system folders (Desktop, Downloads root, C:\) - Grayed out download button when no folder is selected - Improved profile auto-detection across subpaths, stories, and SPA navigation - Added developer contact info and Ko-fi support button v1.0.0 (2026-10-23) - Initial release of InstaGoo Chrome extension and CLI suite - Direct local folder saving via File System Access API - Downloads posts, reels, stories, highlights, and profile pictures - Optional JSON metadata export ================================================== DEVELOPER & SUPPORT ================================================== • Developer: Shoyib Ratul • Email: hello@shoyibratul.com • Support the Project: https://ko-fi.com/itzbeluga
