Facebook is a popular social media platform with over 2.9 billion active users. It’s a great place to share videos, but sometimes you might want to download a video to watch offline or share with others. There are a few ways to do this, and we’ll show you the best methods below.

Using Online Video Downloaders

Online video downloaders provide a convenient way to grab Facebook videos. Simply copy the video’s URL, visit a reputable online video downloader website, and paste the URL into the provided field. Choose your desired video quality and click the download button. Voila! Your video will be saved to your device.

Utilizing Browser Extensions

For frequent Facebook video downloaders, browser extensions are a handy solution. Popular extensions like “Video Downloader Plus” or “FBDown Video Downloader” allow you to directly download videos while browsing Facebook. Install the extension, navigate to the video you want, and click the download button that appears next to the video. Enjoy your downloaded video offline!

Mobile Applications

If you primarily use Facebook on your mobile device, dedicated applications can simplify the video downloading process. Apps like “Video Downloader for Facebook” or “MyVideoDownloader for Facebook” are available on both Android and iOS platforms. Install your preferred app, log in with your Facebook account, and browse for the video you wish to download. With just a few taps, you can save the video to your device’s gallery.

Inspecting Page Source

For tech-savvy users, inspecting the page source of a Facebook video can provide an alternative way to download videos. Right-click on the video, select “Inspect” or “Inspect Element” (depending on your browser), and a developer console will open. Look for the video URL within the HTML code, copy it, and paste it into a new browser tab. Right-click on the video in the new tab and choose “Save Video As” to download it to your device.
