About

VidGrab is a small, friendly service that helps you save videos from the platforms you already use — TikTok, Instagram (Reels & Posts), and Facebook (Videos & Reels). It's fast, free, and respects your privacy.

Why we built this

We believe you should be in control of what you save and watch. Most platforms don't expose a native "download" button, so we glue together the pieces that do exist — open metadata, public CDNs, and your browser — and hand you the resulting file. Nothing more, nothing less.

How it works

• You paste a public link.
• Our backend uses yt-dlp, an open-source extractor, to read the metadata of the public video: title, uploader, thumbnail, available qualities.
• You pick a format (1080p, 720p, 480p, or audio-only MP3).
• We stream the file to your browser. We do not store it permanently.

What we don't do

• We don't ask for an account, an email, or a phone number.
• We don't track you across other websites.
• We don't host your downloads. Files are deleted from our servers within minutes.
• We don't help with private, age-restricted, or paywalled content.

A note on copyright

The videos on TikTok, Instagram, and Facebook belong to the people who made them. You're welcome to download them for personal use — please don't re-upload, re-post, or claim them as your own. The original creators get the credit.
