What You Can Download from X (Twitter)

SnapVid works with public posts on X (Twitter) — videos and GIFs. If multiple quality options are available, you'll see them all before downloading.

Videos Downloads as MP4. If the original video is available in multiple resolutions (like 720p or 1080p), you can pick which one to save.

GIFs Twitter converts uploaded GIFs into silent video loops. When you download a GIF here, it saves as an MP4 file.

Quote Tweets If a tweet quotes another tweet that has a video, make sure you copy the link of the original tweet containing the media.

Mobile & Desktop Works on any device. No need to install an app — just use your browser (Safari, Chrome, etc.).

Protected Accounts & Age Limits This tool only works with public tweets. Videos from protected (private) accounts cannot be downloaded. Tweets flagged with age restrictions may also fail to load.

FAQ

Do I need an iOS Shortcut to download X videos?

No. While shortcut apps like TVDL are popular, SnapVid works directly in Safari. You don't need to install any Shortcuts or grant access to your Photo library.

Why is my Twitter link not working?

The tweet might be from a protected (private) account, deleted, or age-restricted. Also, make sure you copied the link to a tweet that actually contains a video.

Can I download a GIF from Twitter?

Yes. Twitter automatically converts uploaded GIFs into silent MP4 videos. When you download a GIF using this tool, it will save as an MP4 file.

How do I get the link if a tweet quotes a video?

If the video belongs to another tweet, you must click on the original tweet that uploaded the media and copy that specific link, not the quote tweet link.

Why is the video quality low?

The quality depends on what was uploaded to X. The options shown here are the exact files available on the platform — we don't re-encode or modify them.

Can I download from a protected account?

No. External tools cannot access content behind a protected account's privacy wall. Only public tweets work.

Do I need to install an app or extension?

No. Everything runs in your browser. You don't need to log in to Twitter or install anything.
