Do not like that it only downloads whats on the screen, if there is a mulitple image post it only captures the first one. not great.

Bare-bones downloader, basically a stripped-down version of Instagram Downloader that was recently nuked for malware. That said, this app works decently well for what it is. Pros: loads everything into a zip file with the account name and date it was downloaded. Also puts the account name onto every filename so you know what images came from where. Allows you to download all the posts from an account or just one post. When clicking the "download" button on an individual post with multiple images, it downloads all of the images in that post. Cons: You have to scroll all the way down to the very last post on an account to load all of a page's posts into cache for Download All to work. When using Download All, on any posts with multiple images/videos, it only downloads the first image; if you want the other images in the post, you have to go to that post and use the download button to get them manually, which defeats the purpose of the "download all" function. Also does not give you the option to download images only or videos only. Would be better if the "download all" feature grabbed all of the images in a multi-image post and there was an option to select images only or videos only. Basically, if you're going to copy the basic functionality of Instagram Downloader, you might as well go all in and copy all of the functions.
