Q: Does Instagram show who views a profile picture?

No, but Instagram is testing a new Profile Views tab that shows aggregate visit counts to your whole profile over the last 7 to 30 days, without naming individual visitors.

Instagram profile picture downloader FAQ

Does Instagram show who views a profile picture?

No — but Instagram is testing a new Profile Views tab that shows aggregate visit counts to your whole profile over the last 7 to 30 days, without naming individual visitors. See what the new tab actually shows and how to check if you have it.

How do I see and download someone's Instagram profile picture in full size?

Paste the profile link into Grabvex and it fetches the full-size profile photo, so you can view and save it properly instead of squinting at the tiny thumbnail.

Will the person know I viewed or saved their profile picture?

No. Grabvex sends no notification and does not appear anywhere on their profile — downloading is completely anonymous.

Can I download the profile picture of a private Instagram account?

Yes. Profile pictures are public even when the account is private, so Grabvex can fetch it at the largest size Instagram stores.

Is the Instagram profile picture downloader free?

Yes, completely free with no login, no app and no ads. Paste a username or profile link and download.

How do I download an Instagram profile picture on my phone?

Copy the profile link from the three-dot menu, paste it into Grabvex and tap Download. The image saves to your Camera Roll or Downloads.

Will I get the full-size profile picture or the small circle version?

Grabvex fetches the largest version Instagram stores, which is significantly bigger than the tiny circle shown in-app. Profile pictures are typically stored at 320×320 pixels, and you get that full version.

Why do Instagram profile pictures look blurry when zoomed in?

Instagram compresses profile pictures when users upload them, and then compresses them again on display. The image you download is the largest version available, but Instagram's own compression applies before you ever see it.

Does this work for business profiles and creator accounts?

Yes. Grabvex fetches the profile picture the same way regardless of account type — personal, business, or creator accounts all work identically, as long as the account is public.
