Instagram Profile Picture Downloader
Enter a public profile's URL to fetch the profile picture Instagram currently shows for that account.
Go to the downloaderHow it works
- Copy the profile URL (instagram.com/username) of a public account.
- Paste it into GetInsta with "DP / Profile Picture" selected.
- Press Download to preview and save the image.
The image returned is whatever resolution Instagram's public profile page currently exposes for that account — this is sometimes smaller than the full-resolution version shown inside the Instagram app itself, since the app has additional access the public page doesn't expose.
Frequently asked questions
Does this work for private accounts?
No — a private account's profile picture is only shown at reduced size, or not at all, to logged-out visitors, and GetInsta never logs in on your behalf.
Why is the image smaller than I expected?
Instagram's public, unauthenticated profile page doesn't always expose the same high-resolution profile picture the app shows to a logged-in viewer. GetInsta reports the actual resolution it received rather than claiming a size it can't confirm.
