Download Instagram Carousel: Save All Photos at Once (ZIP)
Instagram carousels let creators share up to 10 photos or videos in a single post. Saving each slide individually is tedious. A carousel downloader extracts every image and packages them into one ZIP file, so you get the whole album in one click.
How to download an Instagram carousel
- Open the carousel post and tap the three-dot menu.
- Select Copy Link.
- Go to DropZap's Instagram Downloader.
- Paste the link and click Download.
- Save the ZIP file and extract it to see all images.
What's inside the ZIP?
Each slide is saved as a separate JPG or PNG at its original resolution. The file names are numbered so the order matches the carousel. You can extract the ZIP on any phone or computer.
Does it handle mixed carousels?
Mixed carousels with both images and videos may return the images as a ZIP and the video as an MP4, or the tool may prioritize the dominant media type. For video-heavy carousels, use the video downloader path.
Can you download carousel photos on iPhone?
Yes. Safari downloads the ZIP to the Files app. Tap the ZIP and it extracts automatically. From there you can save individual photos to your Camera Roll.
