Instagram serves Reels at different bitrates depending on the original upload quality and the device that posted it. Most Reels download between 720p and 1080p, with a typical 30-second clip ranging from 3MB to 15MB. Because ReelDL pulls directly from Instagram's CDN rather than re-encoding video, you get the exact file Instagram stores — no recompression, no quality loss, no added artifacts. If a creator originally posted in 4K (rare on Reels but possible from desktop uploads), the downloaded file will preserve that resolution.
One quirk specific to Instagram Reels: carousel posts that include a Reel as one of several slides require a different link format than single-Reel posts. ReelDL detects both URL patterns automatically — whether the link is in the format instagram.com/reel/... or the older instagram.com/p/... structure that Instagram sometimes still generates for video posts.
Instagram has consolidated most of its video formats, but the underlying file delivery still varies slightly. Reels are capped at 90 seconds and typically vertical (9:16). Regular feed video posts can be longer and landscape or square. ReelDL handles all three formats through the same paste-and-download flow — you don't need to specify which type of post you're downloading.
