How the X downloader works

From link to saved file in under a minute — nothing to install.

1

Grab the post URL

Under any post on X, tap Share then Copy link. Links from the old twitter.com site and t.co shorteners are fine too.

2

Drop it in the box

Paste the link into the field above and press Download. The X downloader scans the post and lists every video, GIF and photo it finds.

3

Choose & keep

Select the quality you want — HD for video, original size for photos — and the file downloads straight to your phone or computer.

What makes this the X downloader to bookmark

A no-nonsense Twitter video downloader that just saves your media and gets out of the way.

Video, GIF or photo

Whatever a post on x.com holds, you can pull it — MP4 clips, looping GIFs and full-resolution images, all from one box.

Original HD quality

Every file is streamed from X untouched — no re-encoding, no compression and never a watermark stamped over your download.

Any device, any browser

It lives on the web, so an iPhone, Android phone, Mac, Windows PC or Linux box all work the same — open the page and go.

No limits, no waiting

Skip the captchas, queues and daily caps. Paste, download, repeat — the X downloader is free with nothing held back.

Nothing tracked

Your downloads aren't stored or profiled. Media moves from X straight to you, and only error logs are kept for a short while.

Every link understood

New x.com, legacy twitter.com, mobile links or t.co shorteners — paste any of them and the downloader sorts it out for you.

One X downloader for everything Twitter left behind

When Twitter rebranded to X, the missing save button stayed missing. Tap a video on x.com and there is still no way to keep it. This page fills that gap: a dedicated X downloader that doubles as a Twitter video downloader, reading links from both x.com and the older twitter.com and handing you the raw file the platform serves.

The workflow never changes, whatever you're after. A breaking-news clip to rewatch offline, a reaction GIF worth saving, a photo set from a thread, or footage you posted yourself and want back — copy the link, paste it here, and pick a format. Video arrives as an MP4 that plays anywhere, and images download at the resolution they were uploaded in, not the downsized version the timeline shows.

There's no official Twitter API in the loop, no extension to add and no program to install — just a quick, tidy X downloader in your browser that treats your privacy and your time with respect. Bookmark it and saving from X becomes a two-second habit.

X downloader FAQ

Common questions about saving videos, GIFs and photos from X (Twitter).

It's a tool that copies the media inside an X (formerly Twitter) post — video, GIF or photo — onto your own device. Since X ships no save button, you paste the post link here and TWDownload pulls the original file straight from X's servers for you.

Copy any x.com or twitter.com post link, paste it in the field above and tap Download. Every video, GIF and photo in the post shows up instantly, each with its own save button in the best quality X provides.

Yes, entirely — no fee, no account, no daily cap. Save as many videos, GIFs and photos from X as you like, as often as you like, and nothing gets a watermark.

All of them — new x.com links, classic twitter.com links, mobile.twitter.com links and shortened t.co links. Paste whatever you copied and the downloader recognises it automatically.

Videos save as MP4 up to full HD at the highest bitrate X keeps. GIFs arrive as looping MP4 clips (that's how X stores them), and photos download at their original upload resolution rather than a shrunken preview.

Those are hidden from logged-out visitors by X. TWDownload can reach them only when the server holds cookies from an X account that is allowed to view the post — for instance your own account for your own media. You can never save more than that account may see; the About page covers the setup.

Yes — the downloader is fully web based and runs in Safari, Chrome or any mobile browser with nothing to install. Saved files land in your browser's downloads list or the Files app on iOS and Android.

No. Media goes directly from X to your device and is never stored on our side. We keep only brief technical logs of errors to keep things reliable — the details are in our Privacy Policy.
