Shortly after integrating the “Live Videos” feature, Instagram added the ability to download live videos. Thanks to this tool, uploading the live streams you do on the social platform is very, very easy, although you have to be careful because you can only do after finishing them.
At the end of a live, on the screen that appears with information on the number of users who have entered your live, you will see a button that allows the download of the live video on your mobile. It's the down arrow, the usual icon for downloads, and it's in the upper left corner.
By clicking this button, the live video will be downloaded to your mobile phone, although you can't see the comments or hearts that the users you sent during the broadcast. Before sharing the live in your stories or deleting it, remember to click on the download button if you do not want to lose the video.
How to upload directly to Instagram from other users
Instagram has no function in its app which allows you to download the live streams that other users have played in. For example, if your favorite singer did a live concert through the social network and you want to save it, you can't do it without resorting to other apps.

The operation of the dedicated screen recording applications is similar: you press the recording button, enter the live you want to record and, when it ends, you end the screen recording. This way you will have recorded the live broadcast on Instagram in a video that will be stored on your phone, so you can watch it whenever you want.
This way you can have see comments and hearts that other users have sent during the live, information not available when downloading your own live. At the moment, recording the screen of the mobile during a live on Instagram is the best possible option to “download” this type of video from the platform when other users are doing it.
Note that screen recording is a good solution if you forgot to download your live after you have finished it, but you have published it in your "stories". Thus, if you record the screen while playing the live, you will convert it into a video that you can keep on your mobile.
We don't say goodbye to you without reminding you that you can also download the videos posted to Instagram from your mobile and your computer, and you can also download photos from the social platform. Knowing these different methods, he You will need very little time to master the social network of the moment.
