Your data export is a list.
UnplugMe turns it into an archive.

When you request your data from Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, or Twitter, the platforms hand you a ZIP of JSON files — thousands of links to the posts, photos, and videos you've saved over the years. UnplugMe is a personal portability tool that resolves those links into a real, organized archive on your own hard drive.

📦

What the platforms give you

A ZIP file of JSON text. Thousands of links that point at posts you saved — but no actual photos or videos. Just metadata and URLs that eventually expire.

🗃️

What UnplugMe gives you

A real archive. The photos, videos, and shorts you saved, organized into folders that match your collections, favorites, and likes — stored locally on your device.

🪪

User-authorized, end to end

You request the export from the platform. You sign into your own account in your own browser. UnplugMe only processes content you already have access to — using your own authenticated session.

🛡️

Zero data on our servers

Everything runs locally in your browser through our Chrome extension. We never see, store, transmit, or process your personal content. Your data stays on your device.

Three steps to your archive

Install our free Chrome extension, open the platform you're on, and start downloading. That's it.

1

Add the Chrome extension

Install UnplugMe from the Chrome Web Store in one click. It's lightweight, free, and only activates on instagram.com, tiktok.com, and the other supported platforms.

2

Upload your data export

Request your data from any supported platform — Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter — and drop the ZIP into the extension. We auto-detect which platform it's from. Everything parses right in your browser; nothing leaves your computer.

3

Download your media

Hit download and watch as every photo, video, reel, and short gets saved to your hard drive. Organized by source — your saves, your likes, your favorites. Your data, forever yours.

Common questions

No. Your data export is parsed entirely in your browser. Media files transfer directly from the platform's servers to your computer. We never see, store, transmit, or process your personal content on our servers.
UnplugMe is a personal data portability tool. Each platform — Instagram, TikTok, Facebook, Twitter — offers a "Download Your Information" feature that returns a ZIP of metadata and links. UnplugMe helps you turn that export into an actual local archive of your own saved, liked, and favorited content. You initiate the data export from the platform. You authenticate in your own browser. You authorize each download. UnplugMe only ever processes content you already have personal access to, on your own device. We do not store user content, sell data, or access anything outside your authenticated session.
Each platform has its own export flow. We've written a step-by-step walkthrough for each:

· How to download your Instagram data
· How to download your TikTok data
· How to download your Facebook data
· How to download your Twitter / X data

Each tutorial covers the exact menu paths, required settings, and what to expect. Once you have the file, drop it into UnplugMe.
UnplugMe is designed to mirror normal personal usage patterns — requests are rate-limited with randomized delays well below thresholds that platforms typically associate with automation. You authenticate with your own credentials in your own browser, and only content you already have access to is retrieved. We can't make guarantees about any platform's enforcement decisions, but the tool is intentionally architected to behave like a careful, manual user.
Photos download as JPG files at the highest available resolution. Videos, Reels, and TikTok shorts download as MP4 files. Carousel posts capture every slide. Everything is organized into folders matching the structure of your saves, favorites, and collections.
We do our best, but actual results vary. Some content may be unavailable due to expired media links, posts that have been deleted by their original creators, private accounts that have since restricted access, or platform rate-limiting. The vast majority of your saved and liked content will be recoverable, but a small percentage may be missed due to factors outside our control.
10% of every order is committed to organizations supporting digital wellbeing — research, education, and harm-prevention work around technology overuse and youth mental health. We are currently in the process of selecting our charity partner and will announce them publicly before our first transparency report. If you have a suggestion for an organization we should consider, we'd love to hear it.
