MP4 is the format that phones, computers, TVs and editing apps open without complaint, which is why it is the one delivered here. Paste a public video link from Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest or X (Twitter) and see the MP4 versions the network makes available for that video, each with its own quality.
This page does not convert files you already have and does not re-encode anything. The MP4 you receive is the one the network serves, so the quality options change from one video to the next. When the source also has a separate audio track, an audio option is shown next to the video ones. Films and TV streaming are not covered.

- Paste and press downloadPut the link in the box above and press the button with the down arrow to load the MP4 options.
- Pick the MP4Choose the quality you want, close the short ad, and the .mp4 file is saved by your browser.
Questions and answers
Why MP4 and not another format?
Because it plays on practically everything: Android, iPhone, Windows, Mac, smart TVs, messaging apps and editing apps. It is also the format these networks use to deliver video, so no conversion is needed and nothing is lost on the way to your device.
What quality will my MP4 have?
Whatever the network offers for that video. After you paste the link, the options are listed and you choose. The tool does not raise the resolution or improve the picture: a video posted in low quality will only have low-quality files.
Can I download a full movie in MP4?
No. Streaming services for films and TV series rely on login, payment and DRM protection, and none of that is supported. The tool works only with public videos from the social networks listed on this page.
Can I convert a video from my phone to MP4 here?
No. This page downloads public videos from a link; it does not take file uploads or change formats. A file that is already on your device needs a converter. If the video is published on a supported network, paste its link instead.
Is there an audio-only option?
Sometimes. When the network provides a separate audio track for that video, an audio option appears in the list along with the MP4 ones. When it does not, only video files are shown, and those already come with sound.
May I use the downloaded MP4 however I like?
The file sits on your device, but the rights stay with whoever created the video. Use your own content freely. Someone else's video calls for the author's permission before you repost it, edit it or use it to sell something.
