How to Download X (Twitter) Videos Online
X does not offer a download button for other people's videos, and the in-app save option only works for your own posts. A downloader is the only practical route.

- Pick the resolution you want.
- Press Download.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need to install any software or browser extension?
No. VideoDL runs entirely in your browser. Paste a link, pick a quality, and save the file. There is nothing to install on Windows, macOS, Android, or iOS.
Is it really free?
New accounts get 1 free high-quality download and 3 free parses per day. After that, the Pro plan removes all limits. No credit card is required to sign up.
Does the video quality get reduced?
No. You download the file the source platform actually serves, up to 4K where available. Video bytes go straight from the platform CDN to your device, so there is no re-encoding on our side.
Is it legal to download videos?
You should only download content you own, have permission to use, or that the platform's terms allow. Many platforms permit downloading for personal offline viewing. Respect copyright and local law.
