Instagram Carousel (Swipe Post) Downloader
One link shows you every slide in order. Take the whole post, or just the one slide you came for.
How to save every slide of a swipe post
You only need the link to the post, not to each slide. Paste it once and every slide appears below, in the same order as the app.
1. Copy the post link
One link covers the whole post. You do not need to open each slide separately.
2. Paste it above
Press Download and every slide appears, in the same order as the app.
3. Take what you want
Each slide has its own button. Pictures save as pictures, videos as MP4.
Why the slides come one by one
Instagram stores each slide as a separate picture or video. The post itself is only a list that points to all of them.
This works in your favour. If you wanted the 4th slide out of 20, you save that one and leave the rest.
Pictures and videos mixed together
One post can hold both. Each slide shows its type, so you can see whether it is a picture or a video before you save it.
A 10-slide post might hold 7 pictures and 3 videos. Pictures come down as pictures and videos as videos. The order stays the same too, so slide 1 in the list is the first one you see in the app.
These posts take real work
Recipes, how-to posts and long explanations are usually swipe posts, because the format suits anything that comes in parts.
That is why people want to keep them, and it is also why the people who make them watch for copying. 10 slides can represent hours of work.
Save it to read later and nobody minds. Post those slides on your own account and you have taken someone’s work.
Questions about carousel
Anything that applies to the whole site is on the FAQ page.
How many slides can one post have?
Up to 20. Instagram doubled the old limit of 10 during 2024, but not every account got the change at once, so plenty of posts still stop at 10. Either way, whatever is in the post is what appears here.
Can I get all the slides in one click?
No - each slide has its own button, and you press the ones you want. It is deliberate: most people come for one or two slides out of ten, and a single button would hand them the whole set.
Only some slides showed up.
One of the slides would not open. Try the link once more. If the same slide keeps failing, someone has probably removed it from the post.
Pasted a different kind of link?
The box above sorts it out on its own. These pages explain what changes.
