Is image video download safe?
image video download captures Instagram session headers and cookies and reuses them for Instagram media API requests.
When you use the downloader on Instagram, the extension watches Instagram API requests and stores selected request headers, including cookies and CSRF tokens. It then uses those stored session headers in same-site requests to Instagram GraphQL and media-info APIs so it can fetch post data for downloads.
