Despite enormous competition, Facebook remains the most popular social media app in the world, with more than three billion users. But you still can’t easily download most FB videos.

It’s been more than 20 years since Facebook arrived on the Internet, and social media has never been the same. It’s the tool that billions of people use to stay in touch with family, connect and reconnect with new and old friends, find local and world news stories, share opinions and content, shop, and simply watch entertaining videos.
Users love seeing the videos that their families and friends share on the app, and it’s easy to save clips to an FB “favorites” list. If you want to download a vid to your phone? Not so easy.
It’s no different if you want to save a funny video you see on Facebook to share with friends; the platform won’t let you download it to your device and keep it as your own.
That doesn’t seem fair. What happens if the video of your niece’s first steps is deleted from the app? You’ll never be able to see it again. You found the perfect home improvement tutorial on FB, but the creator lost their account? The vid’s gone forever.
Buzzoid has solved the problem and returned control of your Facebook experience to you. Our free download tool lets you save any public FB video to your phone or device in just seconds!
Facebook is privately owned and can set any rules they want. But fair is fair; our free FB video downloader resets the rules in your favor.
Our tool allows you to save any Facebook video that isn’t set to “private” by its creator. You can download as many vids as you want, as often as you want, right to your phone, laptop, desktop, tablet, or other device — and it’s 100% free!
Much of Facebook’s success is due to the sense of community the platform promotes. An important part of any community, though, is sharing — and Buzzoid is happy to do our part.
You can find all types of “hacks” that let you avoid the Facebook video download restrictions, but most are complicated and time-consuming, and many of them just don’t work. With the Buzzoid tool, all you have to do is cut, paste, and click — and the vid you want to save is immediately downloaded to your phone or device. It couldn’t be easier!
Buzzoid’s Facebook downloader is so valuable that people would probably pay to use it. But we offer the tool free of charge and make it available to everyone; you don’t have to be one of our customers, you don’t have to give us your name, email, or username — there are no strings attached and you can use it as much as you want!
If you’re like most people, keeping track of the best videos that show up in your Facebook feed can be a pain. If you forget to favorite them, they could be impossible to find a day later.
An enormous number of people track the growth of their family, the history of their friendships, or the best times of their lives with Facebook videos. But the number of vids you can save on the app is limited, and it can be almost impossible to retrieve years-old posts.
You also can’t quickly dig into your FB account to show friends a video of your grandson or your latest vacation. You want those vids on your phone for easy access. With our download tool, you don’t have to save your favorites on Facebook — you can put them on your phone where they belong!
Few feelings are worse than losing a treasured video. It can easily happen, though, if you rely on FB to save that content for you. You could lose your account or run out of storage space. The app could have a tech glitch that erases videos. If the vid is in someone else’s account, they could disappear from Facebook. Or it could simply be impossible to find in the mass of content that’s stored on the platform.
We’ve eliminated those worries. When you upload an important vid or see one you want to keep, our tool lets you save it on your phone or device forever!
One of the “hacks” people suggest for saving FB videos is using a screen recorder, but that only gives you a poor-quality copy. The Buzzoid app downloads the original video in its original quality; HD vids are saved in HD, in full size and with full resolution, on your phone or other device!
Our video download tool gives you full control over your Facebook experience, with no charge and no obligation. It’s the way FB should be enjoyed!
Users who spend most or all of their time on Facebook may not realize that virtually all apps ban video downloads. They do it because allowing people to save vids would dramatically increase the cost of operating social platforms, and because they could end up having to pay huge legal bills in lawsuits filed by content creators. It makes sense, but it’s still not fair to users.
It costs parent company Meta a fortune to run Facebook, and they generate enormous profits by keeping expenses as low as possible. If the more than three billion FB users were allowed to save videos, that would require Meta to add many thousands of expensive servers to handle the extra load. Prohibiting video downloads is a smart financial move for Facebook, but a terrible policy for the app’s users.
Buzzoid doesn’t face those financial pressures. Sure, we don’t want to run up unnecessary expenses, but providing our free download tool costs us very little since we access the videos directly from Facebook’s servers. The goodwill we build from giving all of our website visitors the power to fully enjoy Facebook is very much worth the small extra cost.
Smart companies do all they can to minimize the legal risks associated with running their business, and Meta is unquestionably smart. Hosting user-uploaded content can lead to messy lawsuits and huge legal bills, so Facebook does everything possible to make sure they face no legal liability if content creators see their videos downloaded and then used for illegal or illicit purposes by random users. The cleanest way to do that is to simply ban downloads.
Again, it’s a smart decision by Facebook that makes the app less enjoyable for its users. Content creators own the videos they create, as well as the legal copyrights, so improper use of the content they own could certainly wind up triggering a costly court battle. But all Meta has to say is “We have no control over users who violate our rules and find a way to save content from the platform.” That theoretically saves them millions of dollars in legal bills and lets them operate their very profitable business without fear of punishment.
We’ve already explained why the cost of providing our free Instagram download tool is worth the small expense. The threat of possible legal exposure doesn’t bother us, either. For one thing, we’re not hosting any user content; we simply let you download it from FB’s servers.
Secondly, we trust our Buzzoid clients and visitors. We understand the many reasons people want to have the power to save Facebook videos, and just about all of them are sensible, legal, and in no way violate creators’ copyrights. We’ve discussed those reasons in detail, but to put it simply, the people using our FB downloader are doing it to save videos for their own personal use. We’re not worried about lawsuits; we just want them to fully enjoy Facebook.
It couldn’t be simpler to save a Facebook video to your phone or device.
Copy the URL of the Facebook video you want to save.
Right-click on the video and select “Save Link As.”
Find the box at the top of this page and paste the link into it.
Easy peasy.
Choose a download option.
Click “download,” and you’ll be asked to choose the quality of download you’d like. Then wait a bit (the time the download takes depends on the video’s resolution and length) and you’ll have saved the video to your device!
Well, Facebook might not like it, but there’s nothing illegal about downloading videos from a social media app. They have their reasons for trying to prevent users from saving videos, but you have your reasons for wanting to save them — and we believe it’s your right to do it. As long as you’re not using the vids for any illicit or improper reasons, you have nothing to worry about.
Not a chance. No one even knows that you’re using the Buzzoid downloader since it’s 100% anonymous. Neither Facebook nor the user who posted the video is notified, and there’s no way for anyone to track what you’re doing.
It can, and it is. You don’t have to give us any of your personal information, fill out surveys, or do anything else to “pay” for the tool, and you don’t even have to be a Buzzoid customer. Anyone who visits this page is free to use our video downloader as often as they’d like. We just hope that if you appreciate the tool, you’ll think of us when you need social media services to help build your account’s popularity.
It works with Androids and iPhones, as well as any other device that uses an Android or iOS operating system. Whether you want to download to a tablet, laptop, desktop, phone, or other device, the Buzzoid tool has you covered.
No chance. The file you’re saving comes straight from Facebook’s servers, so it’s the same file you watched on the app. No one has access to it, so there’s no way any “bad code” or malware can be inserted. All downloads using the Buzzoid tool are completely safe.
It will look exactly like the one you saw on Facebook, in the same quality, resolution, and size as the original. If it’s an HD video, it will be in HD. It’s a perfect copy.
