What vid-down does
vid-down turns the link of a public post into a normal video or audio file you can keep. It works with TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X (formerly Twitter) and 18 other networks, from Pinterest and Reddit to Vimeo and SoundCloud.
You do not install anything and you never sign in. The page reads the link, asks the network for the original file and hands it to your browser as an MP4 or MP3.
Which format should I choose?
MP4 HD gives you the sharpest picture the network offers, often 720p or 1080p. It is the best choice for watching on a big screen or editing your own clips.
MP4 SD is a lighter file that loads faster and uses less storage and mobile data. It is ideal for sending in a chat app.
MP3 keeps only the sound. Choose it for a voice note, a podcast clip or a lecture you want to listen to on the go.
Why some links do not work
vid-down can only fetch what anyone could watch without logging in. Posts from private accounts, closed groups, Stories visible to friends only, and posts that were deleted or blocked in your country cannot be downloaded.
If a link fails, open the post in a private browser window. If you cannot see the video there, vid-down cannot see it either.
Use downloads responsibly
Videos and music belong to the people who made them. Save your own posts, clips you have permission to use, or content for personal offline viewing where your local law allows it. Do not re-upload other people's work or pass it off as your own, and always credit the creator when you share.
