Facebook Video & Reels Downloader

To convert a Facebook video to MP4, paste the link of a public video or Reel and select Download. VidsToGo saves the MP4 that Facebook serves, in HD or SD when both exist, without re-encoding it.

Choose what to download

Choose an available MP4 version after loading the video.

How to download a Facebook video

  2. Paste it here

    Paste the video, Reel or share link above and select Download.

  3. Save your file

    Preview the result and choose an available MP4 download.

Which Facebook links work

Paste the link of a public video or Reel. Links copied with Share › Copy link in the Facebook app, such as facebook.com/share/v/… or facebook.com/share/r/…, can be pasted as they are: VidsToGo opens the share link to find the video it points to. Full addresses work too: facebook.com/watch/?v=…, facebook.com/reel/… or facebook.com/PageName/videos/…, including addresses from m.facebook.com and web.facebook.com. Links to public posts with a video, such as facebook.com/PageName/posts/… or a group post, work too: VidsToGo finds the video inside the post.

Short fb.watch links work as well. Facebook won't open them for our server without a login, so VidsToGo asks Facebook's embedded-post viewer which video the link opens and prepares that one, without a Facebook account. If it finds none, open the fb.watch link where you are signed in to Facebook and copy the video's full address from the address bar.

Convert a Facebook video to MP4

VidsToGo saves the MP4 file that Facebook itself serves for the video, without re-encoding it, so no quality is lost in the conversion. When Facebook offers two versions, often labeled HD and SD, you choose which one to save; the list shows only the versions available for that video. When a version uses the VP9 video format, the list also names the format of each version, such as VP9 or H.264.

To convert a Facebook video to MP4, copy its link, paste it above with Video (MP4) selected and choose Download. Preview the video, pick HD or SD and save the file. Need only the sound? Choose Audio to get an MP3 instead.

How to download a Facebook video on your phone

In the Facebook app, tap Share on the video and choose Copy link. Open VidsToGo in your browser, paste the link and tap Download. On iPhone, Safari saves the MP4 in the Downloads folder of the Files app; open it, tap Share and choose Save Video to add it to Photos. Some Facebook HD files use the VP9 video format, which iPhone apps may not open; on iPhone, VidsToGo lists the H.264 version first when there is one. On Android, the file goes to Downloads and usually appears in your gallery.

On a computer

Open the video on facebook.com and copy the address from the browser bar; it usually contains /watch/?v=, /reel/ or /videos/ followed by a number. You can also use Share › Copy link. Paste the link above and choose Download.

Save Facebook Reels, audio or a short clip

Public Reels work like any other video: paste the Reel address and choose Video. Choose Audio to extract the sound as MP3, or Clip to keep a part between 0.5 seconds and 2 minutes, from videos up to 10 minutes long. Select Multiple links to prepare up to 20 videos, then download each result separately.

Why a Facebook video is unavailable

Videos shared only with friends, posted in private groups or shown only after logging in cannot be accessed. Stories and live streams are not supported, and Facebook does not provide a downloadable MP4 for every video. If we can't find a public video in a post, open the video itself and copy its own link. Prepared links expire after 15 minutes; paste the link again if needed.

Have a Reel from Instagram instead? Use the Instagram Reels downloader. For TikTok, open the TikTok video downloader.

Frequently asked questions

Which Facebook links are supported?

Links to public videos and Reels: share links copied from the app, such as facebook.com/share/v/… or facebook.com/share/r/…, short fb.watch links, and full addresses that contain /watch/?v=, /reel/ or /videos/ followed by a number.

Can I paste the link copied from the Facebook app?

Yes. Tap Share, then Copy link, and paste it here, whether the app gives you a facebook.com/share/ link or an fb.watch link.

How do I convert a Facebook video to MP4?

Paste the video's link with Video (MP4) selected and choose Download. VidsToGo saves the MP4 file that Facebook serves, often in HD or SD, without re-encoding it, so no quality is lost in the conversion.

Why won't the HD video play on my iPhone?

Facebook serves some HD videos in the VP9 format, which the iPhone Photos and Files apps may not open. When the quality list shows VP9, choose the version marked H.264 and download it again.

Can I download Facebook Reels?

Yes. Paste the address of a public Reel and choose Video, Audio or Clip.

Can I download videos from private groups or friends-only posts?

No. VidsToGo only accesses public videos and never asks for your Facebook login.

Can I save a Facebook video as MP3?

Yes, for videos with sound up to 10 minutes long. Choose Audio before preparing the link.

Why is my video unavailable?

Facebook may restrict a video or require login. We do not access private posts. Try another public video.
