Twitter / X Video Downloader
Paste a link to a public post on Twitter or X and save the video in it. Both twitter.com and x.com links work — the site was renamed, and links shared under the old name still resolve.
Worth knowing about X video
- twitter.com and x.com
- The same posts under two names. Both are accepted, so you never have to check which one you copied.
- t.co links
- The shortener X wraps links in. These resolve here as well as full post links.
- Several qualities
- X often stores one video at more than one resolution. Each is listed with its own size so you can pick.
- GIFs
- What X calls a GIF is really a short silent video, so it downloads as an MP4 rather than a .gif file.
- Protected accounts
- Not supported. A protected account's posts are visible to approved followers, not to the public.
- Quoted posts
- Use the link to the post that actually holds the video rather than the one quoting it.
How to download a Twitter video
- Open the post, tap the share icon and choose Copy link. A t.co short link works too.
- Paste it above and press the button.
- Pick a quality and save it. Where X serves several, each is offered separately.
Frequently asked questions
- Do old twitter.com links still work?
- Yes. The rename did not break existing links, and this page accepts both forms, so a link from years ago works the same as one copied today.
- Why does a GIF download as an MP4?
- Because it was never a GIF. X converts uploaded GIFs into silent video for size and playback reasons, so the MP4 you get is the actual file.
- Can I choose the quality?
- Where X stores more than one, yes — each is listed with its size so you can weigh quality against how much you want to download.
- Do I need an X account?
- No. You are never asked to log in here.
- Can I download from a protected account?
- No. Protected posts are not public, and this reaches public content only.
- Is there a watermark?
- No. X does not add one, and neither do we — you get the file as it is served.
