Framestash

Save profiles, posts, stories and highlights from instagram.com into a local folder, skipping media you already have.

Framestash saves Instagram profiles, posts, stories and highlights into a folder on your computer. What it does - Adds download buttons to instagram.com: on profiles, post and reel pages, story and highlight pages, in the action row of feed posts and reels, and on grid tiles. - Saves just the story or highlight item you're watching, from a download icon in the story viewer's header. - Runs every download through a queue in a Framestash side panel, which remembers the folder you picked. - Skips media you already have, matched on Instagram's media ID, so re-running a profile only fetches what's new. - Spaces its requests out, keeps to hourly and daily budgets, and pauses the queue when Instagram signals rate limiting or a login check. - Never marks a story as seen. - Checks an existing collection for duplicates, empty files and unrecognised names, without changing anything. How to use it 1. Pin Framestash to the toolbar and click its icon to open the side panel. 2. Read the "Before you start" notice and click I understand. 3. Click Choose and pick the folder for your collection. 4. On instagram.com, use the Framestash buttons, or paste usernames into the panel and click Add to queue. 5. Use Check collection in the panel for a read-only report on your folder. Framestash is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Instagram or Meta. Use responsibly - Framestash is for personal backup of content you have the right to keep. - Respect creators' rights: don't republish other people's work without their permission. - Bulk downloading can get your Instagram account rate-limited or blocked. Framestash paces its requests, but it can't prevent this.
