I don’t know anything about programming, and sadly I can’t differentiate between rubbish webpages and the real deal when it comes to stuff like that..

I also read about a couple of ios shortcuts that claim to be able to download private Instagram posts if you have the link to it.. is it true?

Pro-tip: these "services" are all rubbish. If you could circumvent their privacy controls that easily, it would be a pretty significant issue for IG and Meta. The way to view private IG posts is to connect with the account or have the login credentials to the account. Anyone telling you there's a secret back door is shoveling horseshit. (A secret back door that random internet users can access, anyway.)

The pages i posts are “hacking” tutorials, theres no online services ( I know they all are scams)..

Also theres those shortcut scripts which claim to only work if you already have the post links (unlikely) , seems legitimate to me..

Scroll until the paragraph just before “Getting Started”, it states it can download private posts.

And this one

So if these methods work and aren't scams, why are you asking about them? If they work then you have what you need? It might be worth keeping in mind that if a girl has their profile on private it's because they don't want people like you looking at their personal shit. Your time might be better spent trying to find a woman in the real world who actually wants you to look at her.
