It works with facebook now it seems, but not with instagram

[Ademking]

@Kartik095 @Intellectual234 I've test it now and it works fine on facebook and instagram. Maybe you're not connected?

[Username23453]

I am connected, it works great on facebook, but still doesnt work on instagram, what browser are you using? I tried it on Brave & Thorium browser & it doesnt work. It often works for facebook & instagram on those browsers but now it isnt working for instagram, rarely does this happen, something has changed, i dont know what it is, its not anything im doing. I love this extension & I appreciate it very much. I even uninstalled the extension & installed the direct folder from this github, instead of the google webstore. Please help. -Thanks!

As you can see, It works fine on Instagram. I'm using Chrome - Windows 11

@Ademking, this extension is still not working on instagram with Chrome, Brave or Thorium browser as of 2-16-23. I am using Windows 7. It has worked great in the past though. I even disabled all other extensions in my Chrome browser, still didnt work.

@Intellectual234

I'm sure it works. I don't know why you have this problem.

1. Try to open Instagram and use the extension on any profile. for example: https://www.instagram.com/zuck/
2. Open chrome://extensions/ and click on background page
3. Show me the console tab and the requests tab

[Username23453]

1.) I just tried it on my Chromebook/ChromeOS instead of Windows 7 OS & it still doesnt work. Perhaps instagram is throttling me? I dont think you have considered that.

2.) I dont know what you mean by the console tab or requests tab. But here is a corresponding screenshot.

@Intellectual234

I need to see the "Console" and "Network" tab.

[Username23453]

Here is what the console tab says when i click on "background page".

Here is the network tab:

Also, here is a network screenshot of zuckerberg's instagram, his profile picture is only showing 140 x 140, very small, real HQ size isnt showing:

@Intellectual234 Can you click on this request and show me the response

[Username23453]

You're right... The response is different...

Instagram does not include "hd_profile_pic_url_info" in your response. But mine does. Weird...

I think the problem is with the account. I will re-open this issue.

[Username23453]

Thanks for your help. In the meantime i will use this website/tool, can you please confirm the images from this have same quality & dimensions? https://www.save-insta.com/profile-downloader/
