Fix

Age-restricted video downloads work again

We fixed cookie sync so downloads that require signed-in access, including 18+ or sensitive videos, can complete when the source platform allows access.

  • Cookie export now checks for a valid cookie file instead of trusting yt-dlp's non-zero exit code.
  • Synced browser cookies are preserved safely, so a failed export no longer overwrites the last working cookie jar.
  • Downloads that need an authenticated session, including age-restricted or sensitive content, no longer fail just because cookies were missing.
  • We also blocked same-tick duplicate submissions that could create duplicate download records.

All updates

Improvement

Instagram downloader guidance now covers more public formats

Instagram pages now explain Reels, posts, IGTV, HD video, and Story extension paths more clearly.

  • Public Reels, posts, and IGTV downloads are described more accurately.
  • Story downloads point users to the browser extension path.
  • HD video and MP4 pages make format-specific workflows easier to find.
Improvement

More reliable downloads with cookie-first processing

The worker now uses synced cookies earlier in the download flow when a platform needs signed-in access.

  • Cookie-backed probes and downloads reduce false login failures.
  • Credit-only downloads no longer consume the daily free video quota.
  • Stalled running tasks are swept back to a clear failed state.
Billing

Credits and Lifetime SVIP now work across all downloader sites

One balance now covers the X, YouTube, and Instagram download tools.

  • Buy credits once and use them across all three downloader sites.
  • Lifetime SVIP unlocks higher limits without a recurring subscription.
  • Checkout records the source site so support and reporting stay accurate.
