Then do not worry, as here we are going to see four simple ways how to download Instagram Reels with music.

Part 1: Can you download Instagram reels?

No Instagram reels from private accounts can be downloaded from Instagram directly. Besides, even for public accounts, only those reels that have been saved with the settings “Allow people to download my reels” can be downloaded from Instagram directly. So, yes, you can download Instagram Reels directly from the app, provided the creator has allowed the reel to be downloaded.
