If you want to download Instagram Reels audio for offline use or save it to your phone's file explorer, you can use Reels music extractor websites. Follow these steps:

  1. Copy the link of the Reel by tapping the three-dot icon and selecting “Copy link.”
  2. Open the website https://offmp3.com/sites/instagram on your mobile or PC browser.

  1. Download the Instagram Reel on your phone by opening the Reel video and tapping the “Send” button, then selecting “Add Reel to your story.”
  2. On Android, install and open a Video to MP3 converter app. Choose the Reel video, customize the settings if needed, and tap the “Convert” button to download the Reel's music.
