Download Videos From Anywhere
Platform-specific guides for saving videos from Twitter, Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, and more using Video Downloader Pro.
By Platform
Twitter / X
One-click Chrome extension that saves any public Twitter or X video as clean MP4 at original 720p or 1080p — no watermarks, no third-party sites, no account required. Handles native videos, GIFs (which Twitter serves as silent MP4), and quote-tweet embedded videos. Works on the main feed, individual tweet permalinks, replies, and profile pages.
Instagram Reels
One-click Chrome extension that saves any public Instagram Reel as clean MP4 at original 720p or 1080p — no watermarks, no third-party sites, no Instagram account tricks. Handles Reels, remixes, collaborator-tagged posts, and Reels cross-posted from Facebook. Detects video streams as you browse Instagram in Chrome.
Instagram Stories
Instagram Stories vanish after 24 hours and the platform has no native save option for desktop users. This free Chrome extension catches any Story you can view — yours, public accounts, or private accounts you follow — and saves the underlying MP4 (video Stories) or JPEG/PNG (photo Stories) directly to your computer. One click. No watermarks, no anonymous-viewer workarounds, no third-party sites that log Story URLs on their servers.
YouTube
YouTube is the most-searched platform for video downloading, but it comes with unique restrictions. Here is what you need to know before trying to save YouTube content offline.
TikTok
Free Chrome extension that saves any public TikTok video as a clean MP4 at original quality — no TikTok watermark, no username overlay, no third-party sites. Detects videos on the For You feed, profile pages, direct video URLs, and shared TikTok links. Handles Duets, Stitches, and Photo Mode audio. Captures the underlying MP4 from TikTok's CDN BEFORE the watermark is rendered into the file.
Free Chrome extension that saves any public Facebook video, Reel, or Watch video as a clean MP4 in SD or HD up to 1080p — no third-party websites, no URL pasting, no ads. Detects video streams on the Facebook page you're already on and downloads in one click. Handles feed posts, Reels, Watch, recorded Live broadcasts, and embedded videos on Pages and in Groups (where you have access).
Reddit serves video and audio as separate DASH streams — which is why most download methods produce silent MP4 files. This Chrome extension detects both streams, downloads them, and merges them automatically into a single MP4 with synchronized audio. One click. No FFmpeg. No third-party sites. No 'why is my Reddit video silent' problem.
Vimeo
Save any Vimeo video to your computer in MP4 format — from 360p up to 4K. The extension detects Vimeo's HLS stream and lets you choose your quality before downloading. Works with password-protected videos too.
Twitch Clips
Free Chrome extension that detects Twitch clip videos as you browse and saves them as clean MP4 in one click — 480p, 720p, or 1080p (source quality). No signup, no third-party sites, no watermark. Works on any clip URL (clips.twitch.tv/{slug} or twitch.tv/{channel}/clip/{id}) and supports clips shared from mobile via the iOS / Android Twitch apps.
Dailymotion
Video Downloader Pro detects Dailymotion's HLS stream as you watch and lets you save the video in MP4 at your preferred resolution — all from within Chrome.
By Format & Use Case
Twitch VODs
Twitch deletes Past Broadcasts after 14 days for standard accounts (60 days for Partners, Affiliates, and Prime subscribers). The official 'Save Highlight' feature caps at 60 minutes — useless for a 4-hour stream. Video Downloader Pro captures the HLS stream Twitch serves to viewers and saves the full broadcast as MP4 at original Source quality (typically 1080p60) — no Twitch downloader desktop app, no signup, no command-line tools.
Save any Pinterest video pin or animated GIF directly to your device in full quality — no watermarks, no sign-ups, and no third-party websites required. Works entirely inside Chrome.
Save any public LinkedIn video, post-attached video, or recorded LinkedIn Live broadcast directly to your device — no third-party websites, no watermarks, no sign-up. Works entirely inside Chrome.
Twitter / X Spaces
X auto-deletes Spaces after 30 days unless the host explicitly saves a recording. Video Downloader Pro captures the audio stream live (during the Space) or replays (during the 30-day window) as a single MP3 / M4A file. Listener-side; no host permission needed.
Streaming Videos
Whether it's an HLS/M3U8 adaptive stream, a live stream recording, or a VOD archive — Video Downloader Pro detects the stream as you browse and saves it as a standard MP4 file.
4K Videos
Video Downloader Pro detects 4K (2160p) quality options on supported platforms and lets you save them in MP4 H.264 or WebM VP9/AV1 — no desktop software required.
Videos with Subtitles
Video Downloader Pro detects available subtitle and caption tracks on the page and gives you the option to download them alongside the video — as a separate SRT/VTT file or embedded directly in the MP4.
Private / Login-Required Videos
Video Downloader Pro works within your browser session. If you're logged in and can watch the video, the extension can detect and download it — no credentials stored, no separate authentication needed.
Twitch VODs
Twitch past broadcasts expire after 14-60 days. Video Downloader Pro detects the HLS archive on any VOD page and saves the full recording as a standard MP4 file before it disappears.
Geo-Restricted Videos
'This video is not available in your country' isn't an extension problem — it's the platform refusing to serve the stream to your IP. VPN to a region where the video is allowed, play it, then Video Downloader Pro captures the stream like any other video.
YouTube Shorts
YouTube doesn't offer a download button on Shorts. Video Downloader Pro detects the HLS stream and saves Shorts as a single MP4 file at original quality — 720p, 1080p, or 4K depending on the source. No watermark added.
Instagram Private Stories
Stories from private accounts you follow disappear after 24 hours. Video Downloader Pro captures whatever Story you can currently view — video as MP4, photo as JPG — saved locally. Important: it can only download Stories you ALREADY have access to as an approved follower; it doesn't bypass Instagram's privacy controls.
Facebook Reels
Facebook Reels are Meta's TikTok-style vertical short videos. There's no native download button — Video Downloader Pro detects the HLS stream Facebook serves during Reels playback and saves it as a clean MP4. Original quality preserved (HD when source supports it), no Facebook watermark added by the extension.
Vimeo Private Videos
Private Vimeo videos (unlisted links, password-protected, embed-restricted, member-only) play normally when you have access — but Vimeo rarely offers a download button. Video Downloader Pro captures the HLS stream as a clean MP4 at the source quality. Works only when you can already view the video; it doesn't bypass Vimeo's access controls.
Podcast Audio
Most podcasts publish via open RSS — you can already download the MP3 from the show's website. For Spotify-exclusive, Apple-exclusive, or web-only podcasts that block direct downloads, Video Downloader Pro captures the audio stream while you listen — saves as MP3 or M4A locally.
