What Actually Counts as an X Video

Not everything on X that moves is a video in the way you'd expect. Native video posts and quote posts with an attached clip are straightforward. GIFs are also fair game here, and that surprises people, so it's worth explaining properly below. What isn't supported: X Spaces (those are live audio broadcasts on a separate system) and anything behind a login wall, like a private account or a members-only Community.

GIFs on X Are Actually Videos

Here's a detail most people never think about: X does not store GIFs as GIF files. Every "GIF" you scroll past is a short, muted, looping MP4 file under the hood. That's true of the GIF picker, reposted GIFs, and anything from the GIF search tool. Because of this, a GIF downloads through this tool exactly the same way a regular video post does. You paste the link, and out comes an MP4.

Understanding X's Video Quality

X re-encodes every video the moment it's uploaded, so what ends up on X's servers is not always identical to the original file the poster started with. What you download here is that X-hosted copy: the same file you'd see if you played the post directly on x.com. Quality varies quite a bit by account. Some posts top out around 720p, others reach 1080p or higher depending on how the account uploaded it. The downloader lists every resolution X actually stored for that specific post, from highest to lowest, and you pick.

Link formats this tool reads:

Getting a Video Off X

Find the post, on x.com or in the app, that has the video or GIF you want
Tap the share icon and choose Copy Link, or copy the address straight from your browser
Paste the link into the box at the top of this page
Press Download and let the tool pull the quality list X has stored for that post
Choose a resolution and the file saves to your device

On Your Phone

The process is nearly identical on iPhone and Android, since both route through your browser rather than the X app itself. On iPhone, copy the link from X, open Safari, paste it above, and tap Download. The file lands in the Files app, and you can move it into Photos from there. On Android, copy the link the same way, open Chrome, paste it, and tap Download. Chrome saves it straight to your Downloads folder without an extra step.

Why a Download Sometimes Fails

A handful of things can stop a link from working. The account might be private or protected. The post might have been deleted since you copied the link. Some video is region-locked by the poster's settings. And occasionally a link simply doesn't contain a video at all, a photo post and a video post look identical at a glance in the address bar. If a link fails, double-check the post actually plays a video when you open it directly on X.

On legality: downloading a public video for personal, offline viewing in regions that permit it is generally tolerated, even though X's terms of service restrict it. Redistributing, re-uploading, or using downloaded content commercially without the creator's permission may infringe copyright. Always respect the original creator's rights.

✓ Reads GIFs and native video

Same tool handles both, since X stores GIFs as MP4 anyway.

✓ No Registration

Start downloading without creating an account or giving any personal info.

✓ Every stored quality

We list whatever resolutions X actually kept for that post, nothing invented.

✓ Both domains work

x.com links and old twitter.com links are both accepted here.

Frequently Asked Questions

The technical details of downloading from X

Native video posts and quote posts with an attached video, plus GIFs, which X stores as short looping MP4 files. Live X Spaces recordings are audio broadcasts, not video, so they are not supported here.

Yes. X does not store GIFs as actual GIF files. Every GIF you see on X is a short, muted, looping MP4 under the hood, which is why this downloader can save them the same way it saves any other X video.

Yes, X re-encodes every video on upload. What you download here is the copy X has stored on its servers, which is not always identical to the original camera file the poster started with.

In the X app, tap the share icon on the post and tap Copy Link. Open Safari, go to this page, paste the link, and tap Download. The file lands in your Files app and can be moved to Photos from there.

Yes, with no account and no hidden charges. There is a fair daily limit per IP address to keep the service stable for everyone.

The most common reasons are a private or protected account, a deleted post, region-restricted content, or a post that never actually contained a video. Photos and text-only posts have nothing to fetch.

No. Spaces are live audio broadcasts handled by a separate system on X, not standard video posts, so they fall outside what this tool retrieves.

Whatever X stored for that specific post. Some accounts post in higher resolution than others, and the downloader simply lists every quality X actually has, from highest to lowest.

It works if the Community is public and you can view the post without logging in. Private, members-only Communities are not accessible to this tool, the same way they are not accessible to any logged-out visitor.

Downloading a public video for personal, offline viewing in regions that permit it is generally tolerated, even though X's terms of service restrict it. Redistributing, re-uploading, or using downloaded content commercially without the creator's permission may infringe copyright.
