Frequently asked questions
Why does it say it failed to get video information?+
The post may be protected, deleted, or contain no video, or the link may be incomplete. Open it in a browser and copy the link again.
Do t.co short links work?+
Open the t.co link first and copy the final x.com or twitter.com address from the browser.
It worked yesterday. What changed?+
X adjusts how it serves media from time to time, which can briefly affect downloads. Try again later.
Will a link from a profile page work?+
No. You need the link of the specific post that contains the video.
Can I repost a video I download?+
Only with the poster's permission and credit. The video belongs to whoever created it, so download for personal viewing or content you own.
