How to Download Videos from Facebook

For copyright reasons, many sharing sites and social media platforms make it challenging to download videos. However, with the right tools and methods, you can store videos permanently for personal use. In this tutorial, Eric Griffith provides a step-by-step guide on how to download videos from Facebook.

To begin, it's important to note that the "Save Video" option on Facebook does not actually save the video to your device. To download videos on a desktop PC browser, you need to follow a series of steps, including copying the video link, changing the URL to load the mobile page, and using third-party services for high-resolution downloads. One recommended option is the site fdown.net, which allows you to paste the video URL and select HD quality for a better viewing experience.

For mobile users, downloading Facebook videos involves copying the video link from the share option and pasting it into fdown.net using a mobile browser like Firefox for optimal results. The downloaded video will appear in the browser's download section, from where you can save it to your device's photos.
