Why choose us
A few reasons people keep coming back to this tool instead of the alternatives.
No Watermarks
You get the source video as-is. We never overlay a logo or watermark on top of it.
No Software Required
No app or extension to install. The whole flow runs right here in your browser.
No Signup or Login
We don't ask for an email address or account. Paste a link, and go.
MP4 + MP3, One Link
Video and audio-only downloads from the same link, depending on what it genuinely supports.
Works on Any Device
Android, iPhone, iPad, Windows, macOS, and Linux, all in the browser.
Nothing Kept Afterward
Submitted links are used only to process your request and aren't stored once it's done.
Supported platforms
Each platform has its own dedicated page with setup instructions and current status. We mark a downloader as paused rather than let it fail silently.
Instagram Video Downloader
For public Reels and video posts. This downloader is temporarily paused while Instagram rate-limits unauthenticated requests. The page explains exactly why and what to expect.
View Instagram Downloader StatusTikTok Video Downloader
For public TikTok videos. Extraction is temporarily broken by a change on TikTok's side. The page explains the issue and what to expect once it's fixed.
View TikTok Downloader StatusFacebook Video Downloader
For public Facebook videos and Reels. This downloader is temporarily paused because Facebook's page structure isn't consistently readable right now. The page explains what we found and what to expect.

Once a link is checked, its genuinely available formats and qualities are laid out clearly, with nothing hidden and nothing invented. Pick the option you need and save it directly to your device.
If a video only has one available resolution, that's exactly what you'll see, never a fabricated alternative.

*Availability depends on the source.
Choose your available video quality
Available formats and resolutions always depend on what the source video actually provides. Format and resolution are decided by the original upload, not chosen arbitrarily. Higher resolutions mean a sharper picture and a larger file.
Downloads save as MP4, the standard container that plays natively on virtually every device. Private content, login-gated pages, and deleted videos are the most common reasons a specific option won't appear, not a limitation of the tool itself.

Slow connections, quick previews
Smallest file size, widely available.
General viewing on a phone
Good balance of size and clarity.
Most laptop and desktop viewing
The most commonly available HD option.
Larger screens, archiving
Only shown when the source provides it as a single file.
QUICK TIP
Not sure what to pick? 720p is the sweet spot for most people: sharp enough for a laptop or phone screen without a heavy file. Go up to 1080p for something you'll watch on a TV or edit later, and drop to 360p only if your connection is slow or storage is tight.
MP4
The standard video container we save downloads in. It plays natively on virtually every device and app.
MP3
Audio-only output from the Video to MP3 tool, for when you only need the sound.
Available resolutions depend on the quality provided by the original source.
Download videos on any device
The tool runs in your browser, so the steps are nearly identical everywhere. Only where the finished file lands changes slightly by device.
iPhone & iPad
Open Safari or Chrome, paste your link, and check it. When the file is ready, tap Download. It lands in the Files app, and from there you can move it to Photos.
Android phones & tablets
Paste the video URL in Chrome, Firefox, or Samsung Internet and check it. The file saves to your Downloads folder automatically.
Windows PC & laptop
Any modern browser (Chrome, Edge, or Firefox) works. Paste the link, pick your quality, and download. The file saves to your Downloads folder.
Mac (macOS)
Use Safari or Chrome the same way. Paste, choose a resolution, and download. The finished file appears in Downloads, ready for any player or editor.

PROBLEM
WHY IT HAPPENS
WHAT TO TRY
Why: The URL format isn't supported, or part of it is missing.
Try: Check that the complete URL was copied, including https://.
Why: The video was removed, made private, or the link has expired.
Try: Confirm the video still loads normally in a regular browser tab first.
Why: The link is from a source this tool doesn't currently process.
Try: Double-check the link is a direct link to a single video, not a channel or playlist page.
Why: The specific quality expected doesn't exist for that video as a single file.
Try: Pick from the options actually listed. Nothing is ever invented.
Why: A temporary connection problem, on your end or the source's.
Try: Wait a moment and try again.
Why: The source serves the video in a format this tool can't currently read.
Try: Try again later. Support for additional formats is reviewed over time.
Why: The content requires a login or belongs to a restricted account.
Try: Only publicly accessible content can be processed.
Is it legal and safe to download videos?
Downloading a video for your own personal, offline use is generally fine in most places. What matters is how you use the file afterward. Please respect the rights of the original creators.
Use responsibly
Download content for personal, offline viewing or content you own. Don't re-upload, sell, or claim someone else's work as your own.
Respect copyright
Most videos are protected by copyright. Redistributing copyrighted material without permission may break the law and the platform's terms of service. When in doubt, ask the creator.
Only public content
This tool works only with publicly accessible videos. It does not bypass logins, paywalls, private accounts, or any protection put in place to restrict access.
Nothing kept afterward
There's no account to create and no personal data collected. Submitted links are used only to process your request, and files are streamed directly and never stored on our servers.
This section is general information, not legal advice. Copyright rules vary by country, so if you're unsure whether you may download a particular video, check the platform's terms or consult a professional. See our Terms, Privacy Policy, and Copyright Policy for more.

Read GuideFrequently asked questions
How do I download video from a link?
Paste a supported video link into the box above and check it. Once we show you what's genuinely available for that video, pick an option and save it directly to your device.
What is an online video downloader?
A tool that reads a video link, finds the real video file behind it, and lets you save that file to your device, instead of only being able to view it through a browser.
What's the difference between a video page link and a direct file?
Most links you copy point to a webpage with a video player embedded in it, not the video file itself. A direct file URL points straight to the media file. Finding the real file behind a webpage link is what this tool does for you.
Can I download a video using a copied link?
Yes. Copy the link from your browser's address bar or a share menu, then paste it into the box above. That's the entire process.
Why isn't my video link working?
Usually an incomplete URL, private or restricted content, a removed video, or a source this tool doesn't currently process. See the troubleshooting section above for the specific cause and fix.
What video format is available?
Video saves as MP4, the standard container that plays natively on virtually every device and browser.
Can I use the video downloader online without installing software?
Yes. Everything runs in your browser, and there's nothing to install on any device.
Does video quality change when saving a file?
No. You get the same file the source provides at the resolution you choose. Nothing is re-encoded, upscaled, or altered.
Can I use the tool on mobile?
Yes. It works in any modern mobile browser, on both Android and iOS, with no app required.
Where are downloaded video files saved?
Wherever your browser saves downloads by default: typically a Downloads folder on desktop, or a Downloads location in the Files app on mobile. Your browser's settings can change this.
Do I need an account?
No. There's no signup, login, or account required at any point.
Can every video link be processed?
No. Only links from currently supported sources, and only for content that's publicly accessible. Private, restricted, or unsupported links can't be processed.
What content am I allowed to download?
Only content you own, have explicit permission to save, or are otherwise clearly authorized to download. Copyright and the source's terms of service still apply after a file is saved.
Is it legal to download videos?
Downloading a video for personal, offline use is generally allowed in most places. Re-uploading, selling, or claiming someone else's copyrighted content as your own is not. See the legal and safety section above for details.
Why do some videos take longer to check?
Longer videos and higher-quality sources simply take more time to read and process than a short clip. There's no artificial delay; it's proportional to the video itself.
