Instagram carousel posts are multi-image posts that let you swipe through up to 10 photos or videos in a single post. They're one of the most engaging formats on Instagram — and one of the most requested for downloading. Here's how to save all carousel images at once in 2026.
What Are Instagram Carousel Posts?
A carousel post on Instagram contains 2-10 pieces of media (photos, videos, or a mix). When you see a post with small dots at the bottom or a 1/10 indicator, it's a carousel.
- Photo dumps from events and travel
- Recipe step-by-step guides
- Product showcases and lookbooks
- Before/after comparisons
- Educational infographics
The Problem: Instagram Only Shows One Image at a Time
When you screenshot or try to save an Instagram carousel post, you typically only get the first image. The other slides require individual saving — very tedious for posts with 10 images.
How to Save All Instagram Carousel Images
Step 1: Get the carousel post URL
- Desktop: Copy from your browser address bar (looks like instagram.com/p/ABC123/)
- Mobile: Tap the three-dot menu and select Copy link
