Extension Metadata
About this extension
Anti Instagram Login removes Instagram's forced login wall, letting you browse public profiles and view posts, photos, reels and comments without an account — no sign-up, no tracking consent screens.
What it does:
Privacy: the add-on runs entirely in your browser. It collects no data, sends nothing anywhere and only activates on instagram.com pages.
Notes: Instagram can change their page structure at any time, which may temporarily break features. Stories cannot be viewed without logging in — Instagram requires authentication at the server level. Video downloads capture the playing video in real time, so the video plays through once.

What it does:
- Removes the login wall popup, the dark backdrop overlay and invisible click interceptors
- Unlocks scrolling on profiles so you can browse all public posts
- Direct navigation — clicking posts and profiles opens them directly instead of triggering the login wall
- Download button on post and reel pages: save photos as JPG or record videos as WebM (carousels: downloads the currently visible image)
- Exact timestamps: relative times like "200 Wo." get a "~3.8y" suffix, a hover tooltip with the full date and time, and the post's own timestamp shows the exact upload date and time
- On/off master toggle plus individual toggles for the download button and timestamp features
- Block counter shows how many login walls have been removed
