How to Save Facebook Reels and Videos to Your Phone
Facebook has no download button for most videos and Reels. A link-based downloader is the easiest way to keep a copy.
Ready to download? Open the Facebook downloader
Steps
- Tap Share under the video or Reel and choose Copy link.
- Paste it into the Facebook video downloader.
- Press Download, then Download MP4.
What cannot be downloaded
Videos from private profiles, closed groups and some live streams are not public, so they cannot be fetched. Ask the owner to share a public link or send the file directly.
fb.watch links
Short fb.watch links work the same way. Paste them as they are.
