Frequently asked questions
Can any tool download a private account's posts?
No legitimate tool can. If you cannot view the content yourself, no tool can fetch it for you — sites claiming otherwise are usually scams.
Is it safe to enter my password into a downloader?
Never. That is the most common way accounts get stolen. This site never asks for a password.
What if I can view the post?
Then the browser method above works for your own personal copy, for content you have permission to view.
