This article will show you how to Download Twitter Videos on PC and Phone. Even though Twitter isn’t a video platform like TikTok and Instagram are trying to be, that doesn’t mean that people don’t share a lot of great videos every day. Twitter used to be a website where you could write short thoughts or questions in 140 characters. But in the last ten years, it has changed into a place where people can share pictures, videos, audio clips, and other things.
We’ve been seeing a lot of videos on Twitter as of late. Whether it’s a video of a cute dog or a debate on a controversial subject, you love to watch it over and over again until you get sick of it. You can’t download a video from the application’s platform, though. This is mostly because of the platform’s copyright rules. What if, though, there was an easy way to download these videos? This article will show you how simple it is to get videos from Twitter. So, let’s not waste any more time and get started with how to Download Twitter Videos on PC and Phone.
How to Download Twitter Videos on Windows
It’s pretty easy to watch and share videos on Twitter, but you can’t save them to your computer, phone, or tablet. This means that Twitter users have to find other ways to save their favorite clips. Downloading on a computer is by far the easiest way to do it, and you don’t need to install any extra software to do it. This is how:
- Open your favorite web browser and go to Twitter.com. There’s no need to sign in.
- Find the tweet that has the video you want to save.
- If you right-click on the tweet’s date, you’ll see the permalink.
- There will be a menu. Copy the link’s address. Now, the tweet’s web address will be copied to your computer’s clipboard.
- Visit the site DownloadTwitterVideo.com.
- Paste the tweet’s web address into the field on the website by right-clicking it and choosing “Paste,” or by pressing Ctrl+V on Windows or Command+V on a Mac.
- Press Enter.
- There will be options for your video download on the two buttons that show up. Choose MP4 for a low-resolution version of the video and MP4 HD for a high-resolution version.
- Click the new button with the right mouse button that showed up after you chose the type of download. It will say “Right-click here” and select “Save link as…”
How to Download Twitter Videos on Mac
- Open your web browser (e.g., Safari, Chrome) on your Mac.
- Go to Twitter.com.
- Find the tweet that contains the video you want to download.
- Click on the tweet to open it.
- Copy the tweet’s URL from the address bar of your browser.
- Open a new tab or window in your web browser.
- Visit a website that allows you to download Twitter videos, such as “DownloadTwitterVideo.com” or “TwitterVideoDownloader.com.”
- Paste the tweet’s URL into the provided field on the website. You can do this by right-clicking in the field and selecting “Paste,” or by pressing Ctrl+V on your keyboard.
- Click on the “Download” or “Go” button next to the field.
- The website will generate download options for the video. Choose the desired format and quality for your video download (e.g., MP4, HD).
- Right-click on the download button provided for your chosen format and quality.
- Select “Save link as…” from the context menu that appears.
- Choose a location on your Mac where you want to save the video file.
- Click on the “Save” button.
How to Download Twitter Videos on Android
Unlike the above method for saving videos on a computer, saving videos on an Android device requires an extra app, but it can still be done quickly.
- Use your Android device to get the free +Download app. This app is needed to save Twitter videos to your device so you can watch them later when you don’t have Internet access.
- Open the official Twitter app on your Android device and look for the tweet that has the video you want to share.
- When you find it, tap the share button below the video and then choose Share Tweet via.
- The +Download app will show up in the list of apps you can send the video to. Tap +download from the list of apps you can share the link with.
- The video will start downloading on its own.
How to Download Twitter Videos on iPhone
To save videos from Twitter on an iPhone or iPad, you have to do a little more work than on an Android phone. It can also be more complicated and take more time.
- Get the MyMedia app for your iPhone or iPad for free.
- Open the official Twitter app and look for the tweet that has the video you want to save.
- Tap the tweet so that the text and video it contains take up the whole screen. Make sure you don’t click on any links or hashtags in the tweet.
- Under the tweet, next to the heart icon, there will be another icon that looks like an arrow shooting out of a box. Tap it.
- Click on Share Tweet via.
- Select Copy Link. The tweet’s URL will now be saved to the clipboard of your device.
- Close the Twitter app and start the MyMedia app.
- Tap Browser in the menu at the bottom.
- Type www.TWDown.net in the field at the top of the app and tap “Go.” Basically, this loads a website into the MyMedia app.
- Go to the bottom of the page until you see a field that says “Enter Video.” Tap this field to make the cursor show up, then tap, hold your finger on it for a second, and tap again to bring up the Paste option.
- Tap Paste to put the web address of the tweet in the field.
- Tap the button next to the field that says “Download.”
- Now, the page will reload and give you a number of links to download your video in different sizes and resolutions. Tap the one you’d like to save.
- When you tap a link to download something, a menu will appear. Tap Download the File, and then give the video you want to save a name.
- Tap Media on the bottom menu. This screen should show the video you saved.
- Tap the file name of your video.
- A new menu with a list of options will appear. Tap Save to Camera Roll to copy your Twitter video to the Camera Roll folder on your iOS device. You can now open it in other apps just like you would if you had made the video yourself.
