🎬

Facebook Reels Downloader

Short vertical Reels from public pages, creators and friends work too. Use the same box and the same buttons.

Sound Only

Switch to Audio Only to save talks, music clips and interviews as a 320 kbps MP3 file.

🔓

No Facebook Login

You never type your Facebook email or password here. The link to a public video is all VisionStream needs.

How to Download Facebook Videos in 3 Steps

This Facebook video downloader only needs a link to the video. The whole job takes about a minute.

1

Copy the Video Link

In the Facebook app, tap Share under the video and choose Copy Link. On a computer, copy the address from your browser while the video is open.

2

Paste and Analyze

Paste the link into the box at the top, press Analyze Link and wait for the preview to load.

3

Pick and Download

Choose Video or Audio Only, select a quality and press Start Direct Download.

How to Save Facebook Reels

Our Facebook Reels downloader follows the same three steps as any other video. Here is what to expect.

📱

Tall Videos Stay Tall

Reels are vertical, so the saved MP4 is vertical too and fills a phone screen from top to bottom.

👥

Pages, Creators and Friends

You can download Facebook Reels from any of them, as long as anyone on Facebook can open them.

💾

Keep the Ones You Love

Cooking, comedy and DIY Reels are easy to scroll past. Save Facebook Reels you may need again and find them in your gallery in seconds.

Facebook to MP3: Keep Only the Audio

Prefer listening to watching? Choose Audio Only and get a 320 kbps MP3.

🎙️

Talks, Lectures and Podcasts

Many speakers stream their talks on Facebook. Save the audio and listen while you walk or drive.

🔋

Save Data and Battery

An MP3 is much lighter than a video, and it plays fine with the screen turned off.

🎸

Live Music Sessions

Bands and singers often go live from home. If you love a set, keep the sound as a file.

When It Helps to Download Facebook Videos

A few everyday reasons to keep a copy.

👨‍👩‍👧

Family Moments

Birthdays, weddings and trips are often shared on Facebook first. A saved copy keeps them safe outside the app.

🛍️

Product Demos

Sellers post short demos of what they sell. Save one so you can compare options before you buy.

🎓

Classes and Webinars

Teachers and trainers post lessons on public pages. A saved lesson is there when your internet is not.

📰

News and Events

Local news clips and event updates can vanish quickly. Keep one when you need to refer back to it.

Which Size Works for Facebook Videos?

The right size depends on how old the video is and how long it runs.

🆕

Recent Uploads

Videos shot on a modern phone often come in 1080p. Pick the biggest size for these.

🕰️

Older Videos

Videos posted years ago were often small to begin with. Choosing 1080p will not sharpen them, so 720p or 480p is enough.

⏱️

Long Videos

A long webinar at 1080p can become a very large file. Try 720p or 480p to keep it easy to store and share.

Facebook Link Not Working? Try These Fixes

If nothing happens after you press Analyze Link, check these first.

Did the link come from an email or a notification?

Links inside emails and notifications are often long and routed through tracking. Open the video itself and copy the link again from the Share menu.

Are you inside Facebook's built-in browser?

Some in-app browsers block downloads. Open this page in Chrome or Safari, paste the link there and try again.

Did a live video just end?

A replay can take a few minutes to finish processing. Wait a little, refresh the page and paste the link once more.

Facebook Video Downloader FAQ

Can I download a video from a Facebook group?

Yes, if the group is public. Public groups let anyone see posts, so their videos can be saved like any other public video. If you had to join the group before you could see the video, it is private and cannot be downloaded here.

Can I download a video from a Facebook Page, such as a shop or news channel?

Yes, if the video is public. Pages usually post in public, so a Facebook video downloader treats their videos like any other public video. If the Page limits who can watch, for example by age or country, the video may not load.

Can I download a video someone sent me in Messenger?

If someone sent you a link to a public Facebook video, paste that link here. A video sent as a file inside a private chat is different. It is not a public link, so open the video in Messenger and use the save option there.

Why does Facebook ask me to log in when I open the link?

That usually means the video is not public. Open the link in a private or incognito browser window. If Facebook still asks you to log in, VisionStream cannot reach the video either. Ask the owner to change the audience to Public, or ask them to send you the file.

Will captions and subtitles be saved with the video?

Captions that are part of the picture, added by the creator, stay in the saved file. Subtitles that Facebook shows as a separate option, such as auto-generated captions, are not included.

How do I get back a video I posted myself years ago?

Open the video on your profile, copy its link and use it here, as long as the audience is set to Public. If it was shared with Friends only, the Facebook Help Center explains how to download a copy of everything you have uploaded.

Why does the downloaded video have black bars on the sides?

That happens when a wide video is played on a tall screen, or the other way round. The file keeps the shape the creator filmed it in. Turn your phone sideways, or crop the video in any editor.

Can I download several Facebook videos at once?

Each link is handled on its own. Paste one link, download it, then paste the next. Saving them one by one also keeps your browser from blocking several downloads at the same time.

Ready to save a video? Paste the link at the top and let VisionStream's Facebook video downloader do the job. VisionStream is also a free social media video downloader for other apps. Please download only content you own or have permission to use, and read Facebook's Terms of Service and our DMCA notice.
