Dropbox, on the other hand, although I think you already know it, is a very popular cloud storage platform that allows you to store files online and synchronize them on all your devices. If you need it, I explained in detail how to use Dropbox in my previous tutorial.

Then click the button Create Account. If you already have an account on IFTTT instead of clicking on Sign Up presses the button Sign In then fill in the fields visible on the screen by typing your username or e-mail address that you generally use to take advantage of the service and the associated password and then press the blue button Sing in.
Once logged into the service, use the script Save all Instagram photos to Dropbox which allows you to store all the photos you share on Instagram directly to your Dropbox account. To access the script click here, to activate it presses the buttons instead Connect, to connect IFTTT to your Instagram and Dropbox accounts, and Add. Also, if you want to receive a notification every time an Instagram video is saved to your Dropbox account before pressing the button Add check the box next to the item Recive notifications when this Recipe runs. Keep in mind that for the operation to be completed correctly you will need to authorize IFTTT to access both your Instagram account and your Dropbox account: this is a very safe and reliable service, so proceed with confidence.
Then check that the script has actually been activated by clicking on the entry My recipes which is placed at the top of the IFTTT web page and making sure that the image placed above the item Save all Instagram photos to Dropbox is colored.
