Description

Video Download helper for Chrome.

Github: https://github.com/lmutter/igpd

Allows user to directly access the link of video displayed on private instagram pages. Currently this is done by displaying a box under the extension icon containing the direct link to the video.

To use, open the instagram video, refresh the page, and click on the extension box. Copy the entire text within the new box and paste this in your address bar OR right click on highlighted text and click "Go to https//scontent...". Note: You must refresh the page to generate a new link on every video.

There are only a few "video download" extensions on the chrome web store, and I could not find any specifically for Instagram that were open source. I am new to writing extensions and this is a basic proof of concept. Current goals are to (eventually) add a button to the extension to allow for immediate download, and to not require the user to refresh after clicking off of a video and onto another one. Also, the icon will show as "active" (not black and white) for a lot of web pages but not all. It should only show as active on instagram.com.

Despite that, it is a basic extension and does not require visiting any 3rd party site, as is usually the case.

What has inspired us?

Extore is a team of professionals who are passionate about creating extensions for web browsers. This devotion also gives us opportunity to appreciate work of other people. We get inspired by useful, open source extensions made by developers all over the world. Our strong belief is that one should share helpful add-ons with others. That’s why we’d like to present you our ever-growing list of favourite extensions that have inspired us. Moreover, as you probably have already learned, sometimes struggling for the best brings an end to the good. Talking about add-ons it often turns out that an upgrade is worse then previous version. Also it can become really tricky to get back to the beloved version of your favourite extension. That’s why we’re going to make not only the latest, but all versions of our favourite (and we hope yours too) add-ons available for download. No more compromises, just stick to the version you really like!
