Common questions

Do I need the username or a profile link?

Either works. You can type the username directly or paste the full profile URL.

Can I view or save a private account's profile picture?

No. Only profile pictures from public accounts can be fetched and downloaded.

Will the account owner know I viewed their profile picture?

No. Viewing or downloading a public profile picture through this tool doesn't notify the account owner.

Is the downloaded image full size, not a small thumbnail?

Yes. The tool fetches the largest version of the profile picture Instagram makes available, not the small thumbnail shown in-app.
