Download guides

Short, practical walkthroughs for each supported platform, including what works, what doesn't, and why.

• Instagram Reels
  Copy a Reel link and save it as an MP4.
• TikTok videos
  Save public TikToks, including why some files need converting.
• Facebook videos
  Works with facebook.com and fb.watch links to public videos.
• X (Twitter) videos
  Save videos and GIFs from public posts.

Which video format do you get?

Every download is an MP4 with H.264 video and AAC audio, the most widely supported combination. Social platforms often deliver HEVC, VP9 or HE-AAC, which play on phones but fail on many Windows and older devices. When a source uses one of those, Reel Download converts it for you; if it already uses H.264, the video stream is copied untouched, so quality is not reduced.
