Best 10 Twitter video-saving sites

Ssstwitter.com might have a less catchy name than some of the other options on this list, but it’s actually one of the better designed. At least, the layout of Ssstwitter.com is notably polished. There are helpful buttons at the top, which link to a tutorial and to a linked tool for downloading MP3 files from Twitter.

The video downloader itself is rapid. In fact, it claims to be able to download Twitter videos in just two seconds. You can choose between three quality options when downloading, too. The developers also have similar tools for Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok.

Pros:

  • Polished user interface

  • Linked MP3 downloader tool

  • Free online video ripper without download limits

Cons:

  • Requires internet connection to work

  • Cannot download videos from private accounts

Keepoffline is one of the more extensive tools on this list. It offers a Twitter video downloader, of course, but also plenty of other website video downloaders. You can save videos from popular sites like 9gag and Buzzfeed, news outlets like CSPAN and CNBC, and more niche sites like Chingari and Akilli.

All the downloaders, including the Twitter video downloader, work the same way. You copy the URL of the video you want to download, paste it into the text box on Keepoffline’s website, and then click download. Simple.

Pros:

  • Linked tools to save videos from all kinds of sites

  • Polished layout

  • Choose between video formats when downloading

Cons:

  • Range of options might be overly complex for some users

  • No mobile apps

As soon as you navigate to RedKetchup, you’ll see it’s different from most of the other Twitter video downloaders on this list. For one thing, it’s red, instead of the usual blue. And it offers you the option to sign in and upgrade. What?

That’s right, RedKetchup has a paid version. The Twitter video downloader is actually just one of several tools available on the site. The options include tools to edit images, resize GIFs, create icons, pick colors, and more.

Another standout feature of RedKetchup is its batch downloader. If you paste a link to a tweet with multiple media attachments, you can choose to download them all as a zip file to save time and space on your device.

Pros:

  • Batch download media files in a zip folder

  • Plenty of additional tools available

  • Clean design

Cons:

  • Some features require payment

  • Requires internet connection to use

If you’re a frequent downloader of videos from Twitter, navigating to an online tool every time might grow tiring. You can save your favorite tool as a bookmark, but that’s not the most efficient technique. Instead, consider a tool like SnapTwitter, which offers a Chrome extension. That’ll let you download videos from Twitter with a click of a button.

Of course, SnapTwitter also has its online website, which is similar to other options on this list. Paste your URL, select between lower and higher definition, and download your desired video. That’s it!

Pros:

  • Chrome extension available

  • Select between different definitions

  • Download videos and GIFs

Cons:

  • Only works with Twitter

  • Doesn’t support the highest resolutions

Videos are great, but sometimes a good GIF is what you really want. But some Twitter video downloaders aren’t able to save GIFs. You try to download one, and all you get is a video.

Not so with Tweeload. This online tool offers you the choice between videos or GIFs. Like most of the online tools on this list, the process of using Tweeload is simple. All you have to do is copy and paste the URL of the Tweet you want to save. Choose your resolution then click download.

While Tweeload is primarily an online browser tool, it does offer not one but two mobile apps. One is for Android and the other is for the Apple App Store. That means almost anyone can download Tweeload on their mobile device to save Twitter videos or GIFs on the go.

Pros:

  • Save videos or GIFs

  • Mobile app available

  • Save videos in different definitions

Cons:

  • By using, you agree to a privacy policy and terms of service

  • Only works with Twitter, though developers have other sites for other social media platforms

Saving Twitter videos doesn’t get much simpler than Twidropper. This straightforward, bare-bones online tool is dedicated to one thing and one thing only: downloading videos from Twitter. Literally. You can’t do anything else on Twidropper, which sets it apart from some of the other media downloading tools on this list.

That said, Twidropper is otherwise easy to use. It’s free with no restrictions, doesn’t require a login or any downloads, and promises unlimited downloads. You can use it on practically any device that supports an internet browser. Plus, Twidropper claims to not store any user data, including whatever videos you download.

Pros:

  • Totally free to use

  • Unlimited downloads

  • Very intuitive and straightforward user interface

Cons:

  • Only works with Twitter

  • No tools to adjust settings of downloaded videos

Often, the quality of the videos you’re downloading from Twitter isn’t that important. A meme or funny clip doesn’t exactly need to be HD. But if you find yourself wanting to save videos in ultra-high definition 4K, consider X2Twitter.

Like some other options on this list, X2Twitter is a simple online tool dedicated entirely to downloading videos from Twitter. You can’t rip content from other sites.

However, you can save media as MP3 files, which is helpful for times you’d like to only save the audio of a Twitter video. Perhaps you saw an amazing song or catchy audio you want to save and share. If so, an MP3 will likely be smaller and quicker to download than an MP4 video.

X2Twitter also offers an app for Android devices, should you require one.

Pros:

  • Easy-to-use website

  • Download only the audio as an MP3 file

  • Free with no download limits

Cons:

  • Doesn’t support other social media sites

  • Can’t edit videos you’re downloading

Twitter Video Downloader is one of the more bare-bones sites on this list, and that’s saying something. Don’t let that put you off, though, because Twitter Video Downloader is also one of the more efficient options.

A button lets you paste your link, and another sets your download in motion. If you get confused, a helpful tutorial with screenshots and step-by-step instructions is on the home screen to guide you.

Pros:

  • Helpful guide

  • Free to use

  • Developer offers apps for TikTok and Reddit

Cons:

  • Users might not love the stripped-back website design

  • Only works with Twitter

GetMyTweet is a basic online video downloader for Twitter. It has the usual layout, with a text box for you to paste your URL, some instructions, and a section for frequently asked questions.

As you’ll see if you try the tool, GetMyTweet is less polished than other options on this list. For example, when you paste your URL, the tool will give you a few options. The labelling might be a little unclear for beginners, with no explicit distinction made between multiple files of the same extension. It’s also optimized for Chrome, and therefore might work less smoothly on other browsers.

That being said, GetMyTweet still does what it needs to do. You can download Twitter videos and GIFs in a few clicks. And the tool provides contact information for you to inquire should you need to.

Pros:

  • Download practically any Twitter video

  • Free to use

  • Instructions with screenshots

Cons:

  • Might work less well on some browsers

  • Less polished design might confuse beginners

The second program named SnapTwitter in this list is another straightforward online Twitter video downloader. However, two things make it stand out. The first thing, as you’ll see if you use it, is the use of AI-generated art on the home page. The second thing is the list of tools at the top.

There’s the Twitter video downloader, of course. But you’ll also be able to use tools to download Twitter GIFs and pictures, including profile pictures specifically.

The process is the same as others on this list. Paste your URL and hit download. SnapTwitter is completely free and accessible on any device with a modern internet browser. Simple!

Pros:

  • Flashy design

  • Multiple tools on one website

  • Download profile pictures

Cons:

  • Private account downloader could be unethical

  • People who prefer human-created art may dislike the use of AI art

Risks of using Twitter downloaders

Free Twitter video downloaders are great, but aren’t necessarily without risk. When you use a Twitter video downloader, consider the following things:

  • Legality: Downloading videos that you don’t own off Twitter may violate Twitter’s terms of service, and might even violate the law. That depends on where you live, so make sure to double-check copyright laws in your area. Generally, downloading copyrighted videos is not permitted by copyright law, especially for commercial purposes.
  • Security: Downloading files to your device is always risky. You might think you’re downloading a video, but instead add malware to your device.
  • Privacy: Either through malware, tracking, or some other method, a free downloader might collect, share, and sell information about you. Some of the options on this list have a privacy notice, but not all.
  • Ads: In order to make money, some free video downloaders use advertising. They might have annoying pop-up ads, for example, or confusing download buttons that are actually links to other sites.
  • Reliability: Free download sites occasionally get taken down for violating copyright law. They also sometimes break if and when Twitter launches an update. Sometimes Twitter actively tries to break them.

Summary

Just as there is no shortage of videos on Twitter, there is no shortage of online tools that let you download those videos. As you can see, each tool is slightly different. Therefore, instead of looking for an objective best Twitter video downloader, consider your individual needs and select the option that best suits you.
