Instagram allows downloading Reels now but you may not be able to use it

Instagram Reels download option is finally available but the company is going for a phased release meaning not every market has access to it yet. However, you may still want to know how to use it. Here’s how it works.

Download Instagram Reels, the official way

Adam Mosseri announced the new Instagram feature via his broadcast channel. You will get a download button, clicking which the reel gets saved in your camera roll/gallery.

Now, there are two conditions:

1. Only Instagram users in the US get the option to download Reels now. However, we have solutions for you at the bottom.

2. Also, one gets to download only Reels from public Instagram accounts.

Another thing you need to know is that the Reels you download with this option could have an Instagram watermark along with the account name.

As for how you can save Reels to your phone gallery, check the step-by-step guide:

How to download Reels

Instagram

1. Open Instagram.

2. Go to any Reels on a public Instagram account.

3. Click on the Share button.

4. Now, among other options like Add to story, Copy link, you will also have a Download button.

Tapping it should save the Reel to the phone and you can watch even when the device is offline.

Finally, if you are in a market like India where the feature isn’t available yet, you can check out a 3rd party app like Barosave (Android) or Insaver (Android and iOS) instead.

Barosave (Android) lets you download a Reel right away or you can manually paste the Reels’ link into the app and tap the download button. Meanwhile, Insaver tries to download the Reels’ links you have copied to your phone’s clipboard. So, it will need access to your clipboard, which may not be preferable for some of us. That’s where an official app comes in handy as a reliable solution. Let’s hope the feature comes our way soon.

PS5 unboxing videos show how huge the console is

To say that Sony has been a bit coy when it comes to the PlayStation 5 would be a bit of an understatement. The company only recently announced the India pricing of the console and now finally we have unboxings of the console going live and one thing is pretty clear - The console is HUGE!  So what do you get in the box? Well… besides the console itself (and the manuals), you get: DualSense controller USB Type-C charging cable for the controller HDMI 2.1 cable Power cable for the console (no bulky adapter/box) Plastic stand Now the plastic stand is used if you place the console on its side. As there is no flat surface on either side of the console, the stand will ensure that it remains still. But you can also place it when propping up the console vertically. However, it does seem like the PS5 can stand on its own vertically if need be. IGN’s unboxing video gives you a good idea of how to place the stand. All of the unboxing videos mention the size of the console because it is pr...
