Ready when you are.

MP4 · WebM · M4V

Paste a direct video-file URL to download it in its original format.

The video is requested directly by your browser. Social Shelf does not receive, proxy or retain the file.

By using this tool, you agree to our Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy.

What does this tool do?

Download an openly hosted video file from its direct HTTPS URL. Paste an MP4, WebM or M4V link that leads straight to the file; your browser requests it from that host and starts a download. Social Shelf does not receive, proxy or store the video.

How to use a direct video URL

A direct file URL usually ends in .mp4, .webm or .m4v, even if it includes a query string. Paste the complete URL and choose Download video. If the host blocks browser requests, open the direct URL from the host instead. Platform post, Reel and Story links are web pages, not direct file links.

Frequently asked questions

Which links work?

Use an HTTPS link that points directly to an MP4, WebM or M4V file. A post, Reel, Story or profile link is a web page and will not work here.

Does Social Shelf store the video?

No. The browser requests the file directly from the host. Social Shelf does not proxy, receive or retain the video.

Why might a direct file link fail?

Some hosts block cross-origin browser downloads, require a sign-in or expire their links. In that case, download the file through the original host.
