Description
GramDesk is an Instagram desk for creators and personal accounts. It works with the instagram.com login already in your browser and keeps everything on your computer.
DOWNLOAD
- Profile posts, reels, tagged posts, reposts, current stories, highlights, saved posts and saved collections.
- Modes: everything, a numbered range, the last 7 or 30 days, a custom date range, only what is new since your last run, or a manual pick from a preview grid.
- Photos only, videos only or both, with optional video and highlight covers.
- Save as single files straight into your Downloads folder or as one ZIP.
- File, ZIP and folder names are built from parts you order yourself: username, publish date, shortcode, caption, likes, views, location and more.
- Paste a list of post, reel or story links and save them in one go.
FOLLOWERS AUDIT
- Scan followers and following, then see who does not follow back, who you do not follow back, mutuals and verified accounts.
- Snapshots keep a history: compare any two to see who unfollowed you and who arrived. Optional automatic snapshot every few hours.
- Search, sort, select, export to CSV or JSON.
MASS UNFOLLOW
- Queue accounts from the audit or paste usernames.
- Safe, Balanced and Fast presets or your own timings, batch pauses, a pause after any refusal, a daily limit and a whitelist of accounts never to touch.
- Pause, resume and stop at any time, with a full history.
STORIES AND COMMENTS
- View stories and highlights as data, so no seen receipt is sent, and save one or all.
- Export every comment and reply of a post as CSV, JSON or a username list.
ON INSTAGRAM.COM
- A small floating button offers the matching action for the page you are on: download this post, download this story, download this profile, audit followers.
PRIVACY
- No GramDesk account, no server, no analytics. The extension talks only to instagram.com and its media servers, using your own session. Full policy at the privacy policy link.
Unfollowing many accounts quickly can trigger Instagram action blocks. Keep the Safe or Balanced preset and stop when Instagram asks you to confirm anything.
