Did 4K Stogram stop working for you? Did you contact their support team about this only to hear that 4K Stogram has been discontinued? Are you unhappy or upset about this and are looking for an alternative way to continue downloading from Instagram? If so, then this article is for you. In this article, I showcase alternatives to 4K Stogram that still work.

1. WFDownloader App

The first alternative to 4K Stogram is WFDownloader App. It is a free cross-platform bulk downloader that can download various kinds of files such as images, videos, documents, etc., from many websites including Instagram. Here are its features related to Instagram. For other features unrelated to Instagram, read this.

  1. It supports mass downloading from different types of Instagram pages such as profiles, reels, posts, tagged, stories, highlights, bookmarks or saved posts, etc.
  2. It's easy to use. Most times, you only need to drop the link and search (as shown in the animated image below).
  3. You can queue multiple Instagram accounts you want downloaded if you have a list of those. This can be useful if you have a list of accounts you want to transfer from 4K Stogram to WFDownloader App. Warning though, as doing a large list could lead to a block from Instagram.
  4. It can also download media from private Instagram accounts if you are a follower.
  5. For Instagram accounts that post regularly, it allows updating them by downloading only new posts with just a click!
  6. It also allows backing up of Instagram accounts in a portable JSON format. That is, it can also download text-related content, not just the media.
  7. It's free. No trial or adware bundled with the software.
  8. It's cross-platform. You can use it on Windows, Mac, and Linux.
  9. It provides a robust categorization system. You can group related Instagram accounts and update them together!
  10. The tool not only works on Instagram, but also on other social media sites and in the same manner. Examples are Pinterest, X/Twitter, YouTube, Reddit, Mastodonetc.

A quick demonstration of how to use the software to download is shown below. Notice, you can just drag and drop the link and then search.

Bulk Image Downloader is another 4K Stogram alternative that can bulk download from Instagram. It's a generic image downloader and so it works on other websites not just Instagram. It's an old trusted tool that has been around for many years. The software is a paid tool but you can try it for free with limited features. The software works only on Windows and isn't cross-platform so those on Mac and Linux will not be able to use this.

Summary: Bulk Image downloader is a paid tool that works only on the Windows Operating System.

3. JDownloader

JDownloader is a free, cross-platform, and powerful download manager having a lot of capabilities including downloading from Instagram, thereby serving as a 4K Stogram alternative. It's a software that's been around for a long time now and so it's trusted and has a large community that can help you if you have any issues with the software.

Summary: JDownloader is a free and cross-platform alternative to 4K Stogram. It will work on Windows, Mac, and Linux.

4. Hitomi Downloader

Another 4K Stogram alternative is Hitomi Downloader. It's a software for downloading from specific websites such as boorus. Downloading from Instagram is also supported by this software. Windows is its only officially supported platform, but there is also a build for Mac. Note that whenever you try to start the software on Windows, it always requests for Admin privilege. Just wanted to point this out so that you are aware.

Summary: Hitomi Downloader is a free alternative to 4K Stogram that works on only Windows and Mac.

5. Scrawler

Scrawler is another free alternative to 4K Stogram as it is able to download from Instagram. As with the other alternatives above, it supports not just Instagram but other social media sites. It however works on Windows Operating System only.

Summary: Scrawler is a free alternative to 4K Stogram that works only on Windows.

Other notable mentions

You will notice that in this article, I have only mentioned GUI (graphical user interface) alternatives to 4K Stogram. That's because it will be easier for most people to transition from one GUI to another. There are two other notable alternatives used only via the command line (or terminal). That is, they have no user interface. These two tools are Instaloader and gallery-dl. They both work well with Instagram, and so for those with experience using CLI tools, you can consider these too.

Conclusion

I have mentioned the top 4K Stogram alternatives that are still working. They all work to a good extent on Instagram (whether the first-mentioned (WFDownloader App) or the last-mentioned (Scrawler). While they all have good support for Instagram, they do have differences in their feature set. For those of you who have left 4K Stogram, which alternatives did you try? Which of them did you like or didn't like? Or are there any missing 4K Stogram features in the alternatives you'd like to mention? Let me know in the comments.
