Setup Instructions

Prerequisites

Required: RapidAPI Instagram Downloader API - For downloading Instagram videos cross-platform

App Setup

  1. Initialize Flutter Project Since this is a new project, you need to generate the platform-specific files (Android/iOS). Run the following command in your terminal:

    1

    flutter create .

  2. Configure Android Manifest The app uses the receive_sharing_intent package to handle shared URLs from Instagram. After running flutter create ., check android/app/src/main/AndroidManifest.xml. Ensure the following <intent-filter> is present inside the <activity> tag:

    1
2
3
4
5

    <intent-filter>
    <action android:name="android.intent.action.SEND" />
    <category android:name="android.intent.category.DEFAULT" />
    <data android:mimeType="text/plain" />
</intent-filter>

    Note: I have already created this file for you, but flutter create might overwrite it or require you to merge changes.
