- Rated 4 out of 5by sandhyafox, 5 months agoBroken for a few days now. It is not showing the images even. Please fix it ASAP.
Great extension. Very fast response.
Also it broke instagram loading a couple of days back but very fast fix and now it is good. - Rated 4 out of 5by ce9999, 7 months agoThis is a great add-on and I consider it an essential tool for Instagram use....but sometimes Insta updates their code and the add-on breaks. Most recent update (1.3.8) seems to work OK for now.
[update] July 10 - one other reviewer stated an issue with warnings from Insta "We suspect automated behavior on your account. To prevent your account from being temporarily restricted or permanently disabled..." I also received this warning earlier today, and now my Instagram account has been suspended. Suggest if you get this warning, disable this extension ASAP, see if it helps. - Rated 4 out of 5by Deter11, 8 months agoEdit 2024-10-31: It's no longer working with stories (vids+pics)

I've been using this add-on for years and it works great but recently I've been getting warnings from Instagram with the following message: "We suspect automated behavior on your account. To prevent your account from being temporarily restricted or permanently disabled, ensure that no other users or tools have access to your account and that you're following our Terms of Use. Also consider changing your password to a stronger one to prevent unauthorized access to your account by third parties." - Rated 5 out of 5by TM, 8 months agoRocks when it works BUT there are times when the download doesnt work at video or at picture stories and the biggest problem is that I get scrap and automation warnings from IG when I use the addon. This automation and scrap issue is very annoying with it.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 12896182, 9 months agoA great app. Unfortunately, the following problem is currently that needs to be fixed: For saved posts and reels in collections, the download symbol is only displayed on every 3rd link. Please update. Otherwise a great app

- Rated 3 out of 5by Firefox user 18358461, a year agoUpdate 08/02/2024: This beautiful addon once again stopped working completely:
For a few days before it helped to change from the "timeline view" by clicking on the number of commentaries to switch to the "single post view overlay" to get things working.
Since 2-3 days this doesn't help anymore. The "download" und "multiple download"- icons are still visible, but clicking on them does nothing.Developer response
posted a year agoHello,
Your problem should have something to do with firefox, you cannot re-enable it ? are you in private navigation, have you tried to delete it and then reinstall it back ? - Rated 5 out of 5by Brad, a year agoThis was the best instagram desktop app by far. But after the new update, the "create" buttons simply vanished making it read-only.

posted a year agoHello and thank you for this feedback !
A new version is now updated (1.3.1), this should correct the problems about the buttons that are not appearing.
However, and if i agree about the heaviness you said, i will not be able to make it much lighter as soon as possible. - Rated 2 out of 5by ruffed, a year ago

posted a year agoHello and thank you very much, saved posts section should be corrected in 1.3.1. - Rated 4 out of 5by Roy, a year agoFunctionality is great among all Instagram pages/features. I do feel though it is kinda heavy on the browser. Makes the website very sluggish after a while.
