Frequently Asked Questions

Which links work?

The tool accepts video links from facebook.com and fb.watch. Whether a specific video can be downloaded depends on its privacy settings and on Facebook.

Why does it say it could not read the video?

The video may be private, removed, or limited to certain people or countries, or the link may be incomplete. Copy the link again from Facebook and try once more. If it still fails, try again a little later.

Is HD always available?

No. The qualities shown depend on what the creator uploaded and on what Facebook provides for that video, so some videos only have a lower quality.

Why will a download not play on my phone?

HD and SD play on almost every device. Some higher qualities use the VP9 video format, which a few older phones and players cannot play. If that happens, download the HD or SD version instead.

Is it legal to download Facebook videos?

That depends on the video and on the laws where you live. Download only your own videos, or videos you have permission to use, and do not re-upload other people's content as your own. This is general information, not legal advice.

Is it free?

Yes, it is free to use and needs no signup.
