Stopped working a few days ago. Something must have changed.

Stories features are working after I tested.
Probably my country's Instagram is not applying new changes?

Maybe you can check the script is latest version?

Thanks for the reply.

Version is the latest (v2.3.11).
I can download Story pictures, but not videos (clicking on the download icon does nothing) or video thumbnails (the icon doesn't show up).
I think it may have to do with the recent change, Story videos can be longer than 15 seconds now.

Thanks for monkey64's feedback.
I will try to find a new way to fetch stories.

I am using a new way in latest version, you can update script and retry it.

Update after using for a couple days. It's working, but the download lags or takes time to start downloading. This is particularly noticeable with videos, sometimes I need to click download twice on a video to get it working from the lag. Everything use to be instant before the instagram change. This IG downloader appears to be one of the few still working right now. So props to the author for that.

Thanks your feedback.

Due to Instagram updated the most video link to blob format, so cause that.
When you click download button, the script will send request to Instagram API to get video url, then fetch video content from url.

It used to get the video link directly from the URL before. And when you see it, it's actually downloaded to your browser's cache. This is why so faster before.

This image explain of all.
Especially with larger videos, the lag is more noticeable.
