Paste the address of a video from TikTok, Instagram, YouTube, X (Twitter) or Facebook, and it is saved into your library where you can work with it like anything else you own.
Using it
- Open the downloader tool.
- Paste the link.
- Wait — a moment for a short clip, longer for a big one.
- It appears in your library under Downloads.
You can queue several links rather than doing them one at a time.
What you get
The video file, with its title and the name of whoever posted it where it was found. It behaves like anything else in your library from that point: favourite it, file it in a folder, pull a still frame out of it, download it to your device, delete it.
Saving from a link does not cost credits. Only generating does.
What you may save — read this part
The tool does not check whether you have the right to use what you point it at. That judgement is yours, and getting it wrong is a real problem rather than a technical one.
Reasonable:
- Your own videos, from your own accounts elsewhere
- Material you have been given permission to use
- Material whose licence permits what you intend to do with it
Not:
- Someone else’s work, republished as your own
- Anything the site’s own terms forbid saving
Republishing someone else’s video as your own is not a grey area. It is also the kind of thing that gets noticed, since the original creator’s name comes along with the file.
The terms in the app are the full statement of what is permitted. If you are unsure whether something is yours to use, assume it is not.
If a link does not work
| Problem | Likely cause |
|---|---|
| Link refused | that site is not one of the supported five |
| Nothing arrives | the post is private, deleted, or restricted where it lives |
| Fails partway | very large file, or a slow source — try again |
| Works but the video will not play | conversion may still be running; give it a moment |
Not every site is supported, and support can change without notice when a site alters how it works. If a link that used to work stops, let support know — that is genuinely useful to hear.
Removing hidden information
Files from elsewhere carry hidden information, sometimes including location. If you are going to publish or forward one, strip that first. See removing file information.
