About this tool
Use SnapReelDownload to download a video from a link in your browser. The tool is free to use and no account is required. Available formats and quality depend on the original video and whether the platform allows the tool to access it.
Choose your platform
See instructions for Instagram Reels, Instagram videos, TikTok, Facebook, Pinterest and Snapchat Spotlight. For YouTube videos, see the YouTube downloader, Shorts tool or MP3 converter.
Before downloading
Preview requests are limited to 10 per minute and download requests to 5 per minute. If a limit is reached, wait before trying again.
Download only content you own or have permission to save. Copyright law and platform terms may restrict downloading or reuse. A public link is not permission to copy someone else's work. See our Terms.
Check a file or diagnose an error
Already have a file? Use the local media checker to read its duration, dimensions and size without uploading it. Try the included owned sample to compare results. If no file arrived or audio is missing, start with the Help Center instead of repeatedly submitting the same request.
