A complete downloader for X
Everything you can save from X
Paste the link to any public post and save what it contains. Videos come in every resolution X published them in, usually up to 1080p. GIFs come as the short MP4 loops that X really stores them as, which is also what WhatsApp, Telegram and Discord prefer. And if you only want the sound, the audio tab gives you an MP3 or the original track as M4A.
Two formats that most X downloaders do not handle at all are covered too: Spaces, X's live audio conversations, and live video broadcasts. Each has its own page explaining exactly what can be saved and when.
Live broadcasts, recorded from the start
Paste the link to a broadcast that is still running and press download. The recording starts from the beginning of the broadcast, not from the moment you arrived, so joining an hour late still gets you the first hour. It then keeps recording until the broadcast ends or you stop it, and whatever has been saved is a complete, playable MP4.
A broadcast the host did not keep disappears when it ends, which is why matches, launches and breaking news are worth recording while they happen.
A Space the host recorded downloads as one MP3 file, from its first minute to its last. A Space that is still live can be recorded too, from the moment you press download: while a Space is running, X only publishes its last few seconds, so the earlier part is not available yet.
An hour of Space comes to about 85 MB, small enough to keep a long panel or interview on a phone and listen offline.
The audio inside an X video is already AAC. The M4A option copies that track out untouched, which is instant and loses nothing. The MP3 option converts it at 192 kbps for older players and car stereos that will not open an M4A.
No option goes above the quality of the source, and none pretends to: a 320 kbps MP3 made from a 128 kbps original would be a larger file that sounds the same.
The post id is read from the link and X is asked for the media it contains. Nothing about you is sent with that request. X publishes each video at several resolutions, and the list you see is exactly the ones that exist, with their real sizes: nothing is upscaled and nothing is re-encoded.
When you press download, the file is streamed from X through our server straight to your device. It is not stored, and no copy is kept afterwards.
Private by design
There is no account to create, no app to install and no browser extension to trust. We count that a download happened, which format was chosen and the country it came from, so we know which parts of the site are used. We do not record who you are, what you downloaded or the links you paste.
Only public posts can be read. Protected accounts, direct messages and anything behind a login stay out of reach, and saving something does not give you the right to republish it: the person who made it still holds the copyright.
