How to download Facebook videos in HD
Facebook publishes most videos in two renditions — an HD copy and a smaller SD copy. This downloader resolves both and lets you pick, so you get the best available quality rather than whatever the page decides to serve.
For public videos, pasting the link is all it takes. For private videos or posts only visible to friends, use the 'Private video? Paste page source' panel: extraction then runs entirely in your browser and your logged-in session is never sent to our servers.
- Open the video on Facebook and copy the link — use the post's ⋯ menu → Copy link, or the browser address bar.
- Paste it above and click 'Get Download Link'.
- Choose HD from the quality dropdown for the highest resolution, or SD for a smaller file.
- Click Download, or right-click the preview player and choose 'Save video as'.
- For a private video, expand the page-source panel below the main box and follow the four steps there.
