Facebook lets you save a video inside your account, but that only creates a bookmark. If the post is removed, or you are without internet, the video is gone. This page gives you the actual file. You copy the link of a public video, paste it in the box above, and the video is downloaded to your own device.
You do not need to be good with technology to use it. There is nothing to install and no form to fill in, and we never ask for your Facebook password. It works the same way on a phone, a tablet or a computer. When Facebook offers the video in HD, you can choose between HD and a lighter SD file.
How it works
- Copy the link of the video on FacebookUnder the video, tap Share. In the list that opens, tap Copy link. On a computer, you can also click the three dots at the top of the post and choose Copy link.
- Paste the link on this pageTouch the box at the top of this page for a moment and choose Paste. Then press the button with the arrow pointing down.
- Choose the quality and downloadA short ad appears. Close it with the X when it shows, choose SD or HD, and the video is saved in the downloads of your device.
Questions and answers
Is this Facebook video downloader free?
Yes, it is free and there is no paid version. The site is supported by a short ad that appears before each download. After a few seconds an X appears, you close the ad and the download continues normally.
Do I have to log in to Facebook or give my password?
No. This page never asks for your Facebook login, your email or any personal information. You only paste the link of the video. If any site asks for your Facebook password to download a video, do not type it.
Which Facebook videos can I download?
Public videos and public Reels, the ones anybody can watch without being logged in. Links from facebook.com, short fb.watch links and links created by the Share button are all accepted.
Why can't I download a private video?
Private videos, videos from closed groups and posts from restricted profiles are only shown to people the owner has chosen. The tool cannot see them and we do not offer a way around that. Stories and lives still in progress are not supported either.
Can I save only the sound as MP3?
Yes. After you paste the link, there is an audio option. The conversion to MP3 is done inside your own browser, on your device, so it may take a little longer for long videos.
Is it legal to download videos from Facebook?
It depends on the video and on what you do with it. Our request is simple: download videos that you posted yourself, or videos whose author gave you permission. This site is not affiliated with Facebook.
