Bulk Reddit Image Downloader: Profiles, Subreddits and Galleries
Download pictures from Reddit in bulk, starting from a single address: a user's posts together with their avatar and banner, a subreddit, or the gallery of one post. Every picture is the full-quality original, its file named after the username, the date and the post's title, with a link back to the post.
Reddit Image Saver vs Saving Pictures by Hand
Saving by hand
- One picture per right-click, one post at a time
- A gallery is saved picture by picture
- Files keep names like 7kq2x9e0cvsf1.jpeg
- Nothing records which post a picture came from
- Saved from the Reddit app, a picture can carry the post's details
NeoDownloader
- A user's posts, a subreddit or a gallery from one address
- Every picture of a gallery, in the gallery's order
- Files named with the username, the date and the title
- Each picture's post stays on record
- The original file, with nothing written on it
How to Download Images from Reddit
For a single picture, saving it by hand is enough. For a user's posts, a subreddit or a gallery, three steps:
One-time setup: download NeoDownloader and install it. It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. The steps below are what you repeat each time.
- 1Redditreddit.com/user/nasa/
Copy a Reddit Address
On Reddit, go to the user, the subreddit or the post, and take its address from the browser.

Create projectCreate the Project
Pick the folder and click Create project. On the first run a window titled “Check this before the download starts” shows Reddit's own page; should Reddit want proof that you are a person, give it there and press Continue - the pictures follow. Later runs of the project take only posts that are new.
Download Reddit Images in Full Quality
NeoDownloader downloads each picture's original file from Reddit's own image server - the full-size file Reddit keeps for the post, not the smaller preview the feed shows. A GIF in a gallery comes down as a GIF.
The Reddit app can write the post's details onto a picture it saves; the original file has none of that. A watermark the author put on the picture itself is part of the picture and stays.
No Reddit account is needed: public posts download without signing in.
Download a Reddit Profile, Subreddit or Gallery
- A user's profile - reddit.com/user/name or /u/name: the posts, the avatar and the banner
- A subreddit - reddit.com/r/name, the newest posts first
- A subreddit in its own order - reddit.com/r/name/hot/, /top/, /rising/
- A post and its gallery - reddit.com/r/name/comments/…
- A gallery link - reddit.com/gallery/…
Reddit Downloader That Names Files by Username and Date
Reddit stores a picture under a string of letters and digits; NeoDownloader names it after the post instead:
Reddit's file name:
7kq2x9e0cvsf1.jpegWith NeoDownloader:
skywatcher [2025-08-12] Milky Way over the desert 1mf3k2q 2.jpegThe author's username, the day of the post and its title, then the post's id and, in a gallery, the picture's number - so posts with the same title never overwrite each other, and a gallery keeps its order. A long title is shortened rather than the id; the whole title stays in the file's description.
Reddit Image Downloader Features
Profiles, subreddits and galleries, each in one run
Profile Picture and Banner in Full Size
A profile brings the person's avatar and banner along with the posts - the avatar as it was uploaded, not the smaller crop Reddit shows. Reddit's stock avatar is left out.
Whole Galleries, in Order
Every picture of a gallery comes down, GIFs included, numbered in the gallery's order and with its caption. A crosspost brings the pictures of the post it shares.
Every Picture Knows Its Post
The post behind each picture is written into the file's properties under “Found on”; “Open on the site” leads back to it. The author, the subreddit, the score and the date sit alongside.
Newest First, or Your Order
A subreddit or a profile comes newest first. Put an order into the address - /hot/ or /top/?t=week - and NeoDownloader follows it. Run the project again and only the posts added since come down.
Reddit Image Downloader FAQ
Is there a free Reddit image downloader?
Yes. NeoDownloader installs at no cost and saves Reddit pictures from a profile, a subreddit or a post's gallery, with no Reddit account. The free version has no time limit; Premium lifts its limits on the number of files per project.
How do I download all images from a Reddit user?
Copy the address of the user's profile, such as reddit.com/user/name, click “New project” in NeoDownloader and paste it. The user's posts are saved to a folder on your computer, newest first and as far back as Reddit lists them, together with the avatar and the banner.
How do I download a Reddit profile picture in full size?
Paste the profile's address. The avatar comes as it was uploaded, not the smaller crop Reddit shows, and the banner comes with it. A profile that uses Reddit's stock avatar has no picture of its own to download.
How do I download all images from a subreddit?
Paste the subreddit's address, such as reddit.com/r/name. NeoDownloader goes through its posts newest first, as far back as Reddit lists them, and saves every picture. With an order in the address, such as /top/?t=week, it takes the top posts of the week instead.
How do I download a Reddit gallery?
Paste the address of the post, or its reddit.com/gallery/… link. Every picture of the gallery is saved, GIFs included, numbered in the gallery's order.
Can I download Reddit images without the watermark?
NeoDownloader downloads the original file from Reddit's image server, without the post's details that the Reddit app can write onto a picture it saves. A watermark the author put on the picture itself is part of the picture and stays.
Can it name the files by username and date?
Yes. Every file is named with the author's username, the day of the post and its title, and ends with the post's id, so one author's files sort by date.
Is there an online Reddit image downloader or a Chrome extension?
NeoDownloader goes another way: it works as a program on your own computer, takes a user's posts, a subreddit or a gallery from a single address, and keeps a list of what it has saved, so the next run skips those pictures.
Do I need a Reddit account?
No. Public posts download without signing in. The first time, Reddit's own page opens in NeoDownloader before the run; if Reddit asks you to confirm you are a person, do it there and click “Continue”.
Will it download the same pictures again next time?
No. What the project already holds stays as it is, and the next run brings only pictures it has not seen.
