How to Download Facebook Videos

Save any public Facebook video or Reel to your device in HD quality — no login or extension needed.

Method 1: Download with BlackHole (Recommended)

The simplest way to save Facebook videos. Paste the link, click download, done.

💡 Tip: Works with videos, Reels, and saved Live broadcasts

Method 2: Facebook's "Save Video" Feature

Facebook has a built-in "Save video" option in the post menu. Here's why it falls short:

✗ Only saves within the Facebook app — not a real download
✗ Cannot watch saved videos offline
✗ If the original post is deleted, the saved video is gone
✗ Cannot share the video file outside of Facebook

For true offline access and sharing, use BlackHole to download the actual video file to your device.
