As featured on: r/androidapps • HowToMen • GitHub Trending

InstaGrabber is an alternative Instagram client for Android. You can...

• Search: Profile / Hashtag / Location
• Profile: View posts (timeline & face-tagged), copy bio, view stories* (Highlight & status), follow*, restrict*, block*, compare following/followers*^,3
• Hashtag: View posts (newest only), view stories*, follow*
• Location: View posts (newest only), view stories*, open map
• Post: View, download (+ batch download selected posts), copy captions, like/save*
• Story: View (with storiesig support¹ and incognito mode²), download, interact with stickers*, reply as DM*
• Comment: View (+ copy), write*, reply*, like*, delete*
• DM*: View, download attachments, text reply
• Viewing* your own feed, discover, saved, and liked posts
• Adding personal bookmarks to accounts/hashtags/locations locally

We support private accounts!*

It can be used as a drop-in replacement for read (and some write) functionalities of the official Instagram app, with unnecessary components stripped.

_{* Requires login. You must be a current follower of the desired private accounts, this app cannot hack people (which I have to state despite the obvious)!}

This app is originally made by @AwaisKing who posted on GitLab but subsequently abandoned it. I decided to continue the app because it's just a great cause.
