Simple Methods to Grab Videos from Facebook: User-Friendly Download Guide

In this article, we'll walk you through the process of downloading and saving Facebook videos, both directly from the site and using third-party apps and websites.

If you're accessing Facebook through a mobile web browser, you can switch to the mobile basic version of a web page by replacing "www" in the address bar with "mbasic". However, for a more streamlined experience, the Facebook mobile app allows users to navigate, save, and download videos.

To save a video using the Facebook mobile app, navigate to the video, tap the three-dot icon, and select Download Video or Download Reel. Alternatively, you can tap and hold the video while it's playing, and then tap Download Video.

You can find videos posted by friends on your wall or their profile page, or access Reels by tapping the TV screen icon at the top of the app. Facebook also offers the option to save videos to the "Watch Later" list or a collection.

For those who prefer to use a downloader website, the process is similar. Navigate to the video, click or tap the Share menu, click or tap Copy Link, navigate to a downloader website in a new browser tab, paste the video URL into the bar, and click Download.

One such downloader website is 4K Video Downloader, produced by the company "4Kdownload". While the precise location of its production or origin is not specified, it is an app for desktop computers that allows users to download videos from websites like YouTube and Facebook. To download a Facebook video using 4K Video Downloader, log in to Facebook, open the video you want to download, open the Share menu, click Copy Link, open 4K Video Downloader, and paste the link.
