Don't Just Double Tap, Download! How to Keep Instagram Content You Love

1

Do you know that we spend between two and three hours per day on social media? Instagram, Facebook, TikTok – they’re all part of our lives, and sometimes we don’t even realize that. We spend hours looking at posts and liking, commenting and sharing stuff online. But there are moments when that’s not enough anymore. We sometimes find stuff that blows our minds, and we want to save it.

The social media journey

When we do find that unique thing that we just must have, what do we usually do?

Most of us take screenshots and save them on our phones – that's great, right? Sure, the idea is not bad at all, but the cropping part isn’t our favorite. However, that’s still manageable, no biggie!

The problem is when we stumble upon a great video – then what? We've all tried those apps that allow us to record our screens. Not only do they mess up the quality and sound, but the editing part is awful! And if we have zero editing skills (which most of us do), that just ruins the entire video.

The secret weapon any Instagrammer would use

We all love and use social media. Sure, it might be frustrating at times – especially when we scroll past a friend on holiday while we’re stuck at work. But that’s not the main problem here. The issue is that we find amazing things that we want to save but can't.

Forget about screenshots and struggling with screen recording tools; there's now an easier way to save the Instagram pics and videos you love. InstaDDL is a free tool that allows you to download any type of content with just a few clicks. You no longer have to settle for low-quality screenshots or use sketchy third-party apps. Just paste in the Instagram link, click download, and that content is yours to keep and use.

Safety first: tips for safe Instagram downloading

We know just how important online safety is. This is why InstaDDL doesn’t ask for any passwords or registration processes. So, simpler put, you don’t need to worry about being hacked.

This tool doesn’t require much – all you really need is the link to what you want to download. No new account, no passwords that you end up forgetting, nothing of the sort. Just the URL of what you like. Are you liking the idea so far?

Planning is the correct way to control your social media

Ever heard of media planning? Don’t worry; while it’s a marketing element, it’s not complicated or hard to do. To be fair, it can actually be fun to try.
Let’s explain it in the most simple way possible. You start with a calendar. Using it, you will decide which days of the week you are able to post content. The next step is to decide the type of content you will be posting on which day.

When you make this decision, keep in mind that your followers are people. People like consistent things, so make your posts like a story and keep your followers entertained.

The final (and most difficult step) is to actually create that content so you can respect your plan. And that’s it!

Networking can be very productive

The importance of social connections doesn’t need to be discussed, as we’re all aware of it. However, nowadays, these connections don’t happen in the traditional physical space anymore. Not most of them, at least. Both the “how” and “where” have changed and have been replaced. By what, you ask? There's one answer to that: online.

We need to understand that. Only this way we can truly see just how vital networking is in today's society. Social media platforms are not just a way for us to waste time or have fun. They have become valuable tools that can help us both personally and professionally.
