    Go to https://toolzu.com/downloader/instagram/photo/ in a web browser. You can use a free, ad-supported website called Toolzu to download Instagram photos on your computer, phone, or tablet.

    • The tool is totally free, but you won’t be able to download images from private, friends-only accounts.[1]
    • There are many websites that allow you to download Instagram photos, but some last longer than others. If you don’t want to use Toolzu, you’ll usually find alternatives by searching for “Instagram photo downloader” on Google.
