Why Download Facebook Videos?
Facebook doesn’t offer a built-in download option for most videos. Here’s why you might want to save them:
- Watch offline — Save videos for flights, commutes, or areas with no Wi-Fi
- Back up memories — Keep copies of family videos and special moments
- Content creation — Save your own uploaded videos in original quality
- Share outside Facebook — Send videos to people who don’t have a Facebook account
How to Save Facebook Videos — Step by Step
Step 1: Copy the Video URL
- Find the video you want on Facebook
- Click the three dots (⋯) on the post
- Select “Copy link”
Alternative: Right-click the video and choose “Copy video URL”, or copy the URL from your browser’s address bar.
Step 2: Paste Into SaveKit
- Open the Facebook Video Downloader in your browser
- Paste the Facebook video link into the download box
- Click Download
Step 3: Choose Quality & Save
- Select your preferred quality — HD or SD
- Click Download to save the video
- The file downloads directly to your device
Done. No account needed, no app to install.
What Types of Facebook Videos Can You Download?
SaveKit works with most public Facebook video content:
- Feed videos — Videos posted on public pages and profiles
- Facebook Watch — Videos from the Watch tab
- Reels — Facebook’s short-form video format
- Live videos — Completed live streams (not ongoing ones)
- Shared videos — Videos shared from other pages or users
Note: Videos from private profiles or closed groups cannot be downloaded. The video must be publicly accessible.
Tips for Downloading Facebook Videos
- Use the direct video URL — Page URLs or search URLs won’t work. Navigate to the specific video post.
- Check if the video is public — Private and friends-only videos can’t be accessed by external tools
- Choose HD when available — Some videos are uploaded in SD only; SaveKit shows all available options
- Works on mobile — Open SaveKit in your phone’s browser. No app required.
- Respect copyright — Download only content you have the right to save
Common Issues & Fixes
”Video not found” error
This usually means:
- The video is private or friends-only
- The URL is from a group, not a direct video link
- The video was deleted by the uploader
Fix: Make sure you’re copying the link from a public video post. Try opening the video in a new tab first and copying that URL.
Video downloads in low quality
Facebook sometimes serves lower-quality versions. To get the best quality:
- Open the video on Facebook and set it to HD manually
- Copy the URL from the HD playback page
- Paste into SaveKit — it will fetch the highest available resolution
Download won’t start
- Try a different browser (Chrome and Firefox work best)
- Disable any ad blockers temporarily
- Clear your browser cache and try again

How can I download a video from a private Facebook group?
SaveKit can only access public Facebook content. Videos from private groups, friends-only posts, or accounts you don’t follow won’t load. For private content, you’ll need to be a group member and use Facebook’s built-in save feature inside the app.
How to download Facebook videos in HD quality?
When you paste a Facebook URL into SaveKit, the tool offers all available quality options — including HD (720p) and Full HD (1080p) when Facebook provides them. Click the HD option to download the highest-resolution version.
Is it legal to download Facebook videos?
Downloading public Facebook videos for personal use (offline viewing, backup of your own content) is generally acceptable. Always respect copyright — don’t redistribute, monetize, or claim ownership of content created by others.
Why is my Facebook video download not working?
Common causes: the post is private or set to friends-only, the URL is shortened or modified (use the full facebook.com URL), the video has been deleted, or Facebook is rate-limiting requests. Refresh the page and copy the URL directly from Facebook’s share menu, then try again.
Does SaveKit work without installing an app?
No app required. SaveKit is a pure web tool — it runs in any browser on iPhone, Android, Windows, Mac, or Linux. No App Store install, no Play Store download, no signup. Open the page, paste, download.
