What Instant Media does

A short tour of the bot before you add it to a group.

InstantMediaBot is a Telegram bot for groups: add it to a chat, and from then on any supported link posted there — Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Twitter/X, Facebook, VK, Spotify, SoundCloud, Audiomack or Pinterest — gets a reply with the actual photo, video or audio, downloaded automatically. Nothing to type, no commands to run: the bot only reacts to links people already post.

How it works

  1. Someone posts a link. Any message in the group containing a URL to a supported service.
  2. The bot reacts with ⏳ while it fetches the media — instantly if the link is already in the shared cache, otherwise via a fresh download on paid plans. See How delivery works.
  3. It replies to that message with the photo, video or audio, then the reaction becomes ✅ or 😢, with buttons to continue in @download_it_bot for another format or just the audio.

Free vs. paid

  • Free groups receive media only when the link is already in our shared cache of 50M+ files — no fresh downloads. See Cache vs. fresh download.
  • Pro / Expert / Ultra groups get fresh downloads too, with weekly traffic, file-size and resolution caps that scale with the plan. See Plans.

What you need

  • A Telegram account, and administrator rights in the group you want to add the bot to, to grant it permission to post.
  • Nothing else to configure to get started — every setting has a sensible default. See Settings when you want to change one.
