How to Download Multiple Instagram Reels at Once
How to download multiple Instagram Reels at once is a question with a slightly disappointing first answer: Instagram offers no official button that saves a whole batch of Reels in one tap. There is no select-all option and no download-all feature, and any tool that promises to grab an entire account's catalogue in one click should be treated with suspicion. But a fast repeat workflow gets you nearly the same result, with far less fuss than saving Reels one at a time in a disorganised way.
The trick is to separate the two jobs: collecting links first, then downloading them in a steady run. Most people slow themselves down by switching between Instagram and a downloader for every single Reel, losing their place each time. Collect all the links in one pass, then work through them without reopening Instagram at all, and a batch of twenty Reels takes minutes rather than half an hour.
This guide gives you that workflow, explains what to do when a Reel in your batch fails, and shows how to organise the finished files so you can actually find them again. It also states the honest limits, because bulk saving has real ones.

How to download in 3 steps
- 1
Collect every link first, in one pass
Open Instagram and work through the Reels you want, tapping Share and Copy Link on each one, and pasting the links into a single note. Do not download anything yet. When you have the full list, you have a clean batch to work through, and you will not lose your place in Instagram's feed.

Download the batch in a steady run
Paste each link into our Instagram video downloader, one after another, and save each file to the same folder. Keep the browser tab open and work down your list in order. If a download stalls, move on to the next link and retry the stalled one at the end, rather than breaking your rhythm.

Rename and check every file
Rename each file as you go, using the creator and a short topic label, then play the first few seconds of each to confirm it is complete. A batch is only finished when every file plays, so this check matters more than speed. Delete any failed or partial files and re-download them before you close the tab.
Why use Ultra Video Downloader?
No app or account needed
You never need to log in to Instagram or install anything to save public Reels. Copy the link, paste it, and download. Any tool that asks for your Instagram password to unlock bulk downloads is not legitimate, and your account is worth more than the convenience.
Works for any public Reel
The same workflow covers Reels from creators, brands, and public pages. If a Reel is public, its link can be copied and saved. Private-account Reels, deleted Reels, and restricted videos will fail in the batch, and that is a real limit, not a step you skipped.
Keeps original quality
Each Reel downloads at the quality Instagram serves, up to 1080p, with its original sound. Saving in a batch does not reduce quality, and a file downloaded tenth is identical in quality to one downloaded first, so there is no penalty for working through a long list.
Easy to organise as you go
Because you rename files during the download run, the finished folder is already organised by creator and topic. That beats the usual outcome of a batch download, which is twenty files all named video, in an order nobody remembers.
Plays offline anywhere
Once saved, the whole batch plays without Wi-Fi, logins, or Instagram itself. That makes a batch useful for flights, lessons, editing projects, and anywhere else a connection cannot be relied on.
Frequently asked questions
Can I download all Reels from an account in one click?+
No legitimate tool offers a one-click download of an entire account's Reels, and Instagram provides no such feature. The reliable method is the repeat workflow in this guide: collect the links, then download them in a steady run. It is slower than a magic button, but it actually works.
Why did one Reel in my batch fail while the others worked?+
The failed Reel is usually private, deleted, or restricted after you copied its link. Open it in Instagram: if you cannot watch it there, no downloader can fetch it. Remove it from your list and continue with the rest of the batch.
How many Reels can I download in one batch?+
There is no fixed number, but batches of twenty to thirty are comfortable in one sitting. Beyond that, take a break and organise what you have before continuing, because the risk is not a limit on downloads but losing track of which files are which.
Do batch downloads reduce video quality?+
No. Each Reel is fetched individually at the quality Instagram serves, regardless of how many you download. A batch of thirty downloads produces the same quality as thirty separate downloads, because the process is identical for each file.
Can I download multiple Reels on my phone?+
Yes, the same workflow works on a phone browser. Copy links in the Instagram app, paste them into the downloader in your browser, and save each file. On iPhone, files land in the Files app, from where you can move them to Photos.
Downloading multiple Instagram Reels at once comes down to one habit: collect the links first, then download in a steady run, renaming as you go. There is no magic batch button, but this workflow is fast, reliable, and leaves you with a folder you can actually use. Work through your list, check each file, and your batch is done.
