Why VideoSaver
Quality where it counts
Built for everyday people, not just power users.
One paste, one click
No menus to navigate. Paste a link, hit save, the file is yours. The app even watches your clipboard for shared links.
Original 4K / HD quality
Pick the resolution you want — up to 4K when the source supports it — or grab the audio as a clean MP3.
Stays on your computer
Everything happens locally. No accounts, no uploads, no tracking. Your links and files never leave your device.
Fast & resumable
Big files keep going where they left off if your Wi-Fi drops. Queue several at once and the app handles them in parallel.
Tidy library
Files are sorted by site into folders, with thumbnails, titles and a searchable history so you can always find them again.
Works on a thousand sites
Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook, X, Reddit, Vimeo, Twitch, Bilibili, Weibo and many more — supported the moment you paste a link.
From link to file
How it works
Three calm steps. No technical setup required.
- 01
Copy the link
Open the video in any browser or app, tap “Share”, then copy the link to your clipboard.
- 02
Paste into VideoSaver
The app instantly recognises the site, previews what it found, and lets you pick the quality before saving.
- 03
Save to your folder
Files are saved to your computer, neatly organised by site, ready to watch, share or back up.
Please read before downloading
Use responsibly
VideoSaver is a general-purpose tool. You are responsible for how you use it. Here are the ground rules we ask every user to respect.
Public content first
The app is intended for saving content that is already publicly available — news clips, public videos, your own posts, content licensed under Creative Commons, and similar material.
Private content needs consent
If a post, story or video belongs to someone else and is not public, please obtain that person’s explicit permission before saving it. Never download or share another person’s private content without their consent.
Respect copyright
Most videos are copyrighted. Saving a personal copy may be fine for offline viewing in some regions, but redistributing, re-uploading or monetising someone else’s work without a licence is not. When in doubt, ask the creator.
Personal use only
VideoSaver is meant for personal, non-commercial use. Do not use it to build a competing service, train commercial AI models on third-party content, or resell downloaded media.
No paywall or DRM bypass
Do not use the app to bypass paywalls, DRM, geographic restrictions or account-based access controls. If a site requires a paid subscription to view content, that subscription is required.
You are responsible
You are solely responsible for complying with the terms of service of the platforms you download from and the laws of your country. The app is provided as-is, with no warranty of any kind.
VideoSaver is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Instagram, YouTube, TikTok, Facebook or any other platform. All trademarks and brand names belong to their respective owners.
Common questions
Frequently asked
Is VideoSaver really free? +
Yes. The desktop app is free for personal use. There are no signups, subscriptions, ads or watermarks on the files you save.
Which sites are supported? +
Instagram, YouTube, TikTok and Facebook are first-class, plus more than a thousand other video sites including X (Twitter), Reddit, Vimeo, Twitch, Bilibili, Weibo, Dailymotion, LinkedIn and more.
Where do my downloads go? +
Wherever you tell it to. By default the app saves to your “Downloads/VideoSaver” folder, with a subfolder per site so things stay tidy.
Does the app upload my links or files anywhere? +
No. All parsing and saving happens entirely on your computer. We never see the links you paste, the files you download, or anything else you do in the app.
Is it legal to download videos with this app? +
The app is a general-purpose tool, like a web browser. Whether a specific download is allowed depends on the source site’s terms, the copyright of the content and your local laws. Please only save material you have the right to save — see our disclaimer below.
Can I download private posts or stories? +
Only content you already have legitimate access to. If a post belongs to someone else, you should obtain the owner’s permission before saving and never republish or share it without their consent.
Stop fighting downloaders.
Install once, save forever. Free for macOS and Windows.
