Facebook Video Downloader

Paste the Facebook video URL into the input field above and click "Analyze & Download". For publicly accessible Watch videos, a direct Download Video button will appear. For reels and private content, the tool shows you the official Facebook method to save your own content — either through the app or facebook.com/dyi.

For reels you posted yourself: open the Facebook app, go to your profile, tap the reel, tap the three-dot menu (⋯), and select "Save video". For reels posted by others, Facebook does not expose a downloadable media URL — the downloader tool detects this and shows the official guidance. You cannot download reels posted by other people.

Publicly posted Watch videos (facebook.com/watch/?v=ID) are most likely to have an accessible direct download URL. Page videos, reels, and live recordings typically require the official Facebook app download feature or the facebook.com/dyi export. The tool automatically detects the URL type and shows the correct method.

Downloading your own content — videos and reels you personally posted — is always permitted and officially supported by Facebook. Downloading content posted by others may violate Facebook's Terms of Service and copyright law, depending on the content. This tool is intended for downloading content you own or have explicit permission to save.

Facebook restricts direct media URL access for most content types. If no Download button appears, it means the video is private, restricted, or Facebook did not expose a direct media URL in the page source (common for reels and live videos). The tool will show you the official alternative: the Facebook app save feature or facebook.com/dyi for bulk export.

Yes. Paste any fb.watch/CODE short link and the tool will analyze it. Short links resolve to a specific video but the video ID may not be directly embedded in the short URL — the tool fetches the destination and identifies the content type and available download options.

Yes — completely free, no account required. Downloads are proxied through our secure server which strictly verifies that only Facebook CDN URLs (fbcdn.net, fbsbx.com) are served. No third-party download servers, no malware risk, no data stored. Your Facebook URLs are not logged.

The tool downloads whatever quality Facebook exposes in the page source. For public Watch videos, this is typically the standard stream quality (often 480p or 720p). Facebook does not expose HD streams in page metadata. For the highest quality, use facebook.com/dyi which lets you choose "High quality" for your own uploads.
