Frequently asked questions
Can I download a private Facebook video?+
Not with a link-based tool. The video is visible only to selected people, so a public link cannot fetch it.
What about sites that promise private downloads?+
Many are scams or harvest logins that can lead to a hijacked account. Only enter your password on Facebook itself.
I'm a friend of the poster. Does that help?+
You can watch it in the app, but this tool still cannot fetch it. Ask the poster to send the file.
How do I save a public video instead?+
Copy the link, paste it above and press Fetch.
Can I reuse a video I download?+
Only with the owner's permission and credit. The video still belongs to whoever posted it, so download for personal viewing or content you own.
