Your Questions Answered: Saving Pixiv Videos, Photos & Audio with Instag

Paste any public Pixiv URL into the box above. Pixiv requires the original account to be public for a download to succeed — private profiles will return an error.

On the Pixiv videos endpoint Instag returns MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio — the most compatible format. It plays on every phone, browser, smart TV, and console out of the box.

Pixiv videos typically caps at 1080p Full-HD. Instag pulls the same resolution the platform actually serves in its own player.

Pixiv only exposes content from public profiles to third-party tools. If the account is private, Instag returns an error rather than guessing — that's a deliberate privacy policy, not a bug.

Pixiv is creator-heavy, so a lot of our visitors are downloading their own posts to repurpose. Instag has no license to redistribute someone else's work — keep commercial use to material you have permission for.

Pixiv is image-board / gallery shaped. Each post is one or more images; Instag downloads the entire post in a single batch instead of forcing you to click each image.

There's no daily cap on Pixiv videos downloads. Paste each URL on its own line for a batch; failed URLs are skipped individually rather than aborting the whole batch.

Yes — Pixiv videos downloads from Instag are MP4 (H.264 + AAC). That format plays on every iPhone, Android phone, smart TV, and console without re-encoding.

Pixiv videos downloads through Instag are free regardless of clip length or resolution. Pro removes ads and adds batch downloads.

Saving Pixiv content for personal use is generally fine; redistributing copyrighted material without permission is not. Instag does not own or license Pixiv content — you are responsible for how you use what you download.

Instag does not retain Pixiv videos URLs, downloaded MP4s, or any account info. videos downloads stream through and are discarded — there is no per-user history.

Retry once — large Pixiv videos occasionally hit transient CDN errors. If it still fails, the source may be geo-restricted, age-gated, or marked subscribers-only by the uploader (Instag doesn't bypass any of those).

Instag respects your privacy completely. No files are ever stored on our end — every download streams directly to your browser through a secure, real-time connection.
