Download public Twitter videos as MP4 files

Paste a public Twitter or X post URL and select Get video. The downloader finds the public MP4 variants returned for each video in the post and lists them with the highest available bitrate first. Choose the resolution and bitrate that suit your use.

Posts can contain more than one video. Each item is shown separately with its own player, length, and available files. Use the Twitter viewer when you need to inspect the full public post first.

Pick the quality you actually need

X encodes each upload into a small set of MP4 renditions and this Twitter video tool lists exactly those. A typical post returns two to four files, from around 320x180 up to 1280x720 or 1920x1080. The label shows the height when X reports it, otherwise a bitrate-based estimate, so a file marked 720p is the 720p rendition X stored rather than a conversion made here.

What you needPick
Reposting or editing the clipThe top entry: highest bitrate, largest file
Sending it in a chat or emailA middle entry around 640x360
A quick reference copyThe smallest entry

There is no upscaled HD or 4K option here. The largest rendition X encoded is the ceiling, so a 720p upload downloads at 720p. Keep does not re-encode, sharpen, or add a watermark: the download is the public file X serves.

Save the file on desktop, iPhone, or Android

The files sit on X's own media domain, so a browser sometimes plays the clip instead of saving it. Download MP4 tries to save the file directly and opens it in a new tab if the browser does not allow that. Each quality also has an Open link to the direct file.

  1. Desktop: if Download MP4 opens the clip in a new tab instead of saving it, use the browser's own save command from that tab, such as right-click and Save video as.
  2. iPhone and iPad: if Download MP4 plays the clip instead of saving it, go back, press and hold Open, then choose the download option Safari offers, usually Download Linked File. The clip lands in Files under Downloads. Open it there, tap share, and choose Save Video to put it in your camera roll.
  3. Android: if Download MP4 plays the clip instead of saving it, go back, press and hold Open, and choose the download option Chrome offers, usually Download link. The clip goes to your Downloads folder.

In-app browsers inside social apps often block downloads. Open the page in Safari or Chrome first if nothing is saved.

GIFs usually download as video files

X converts animated GIFs into short MP4 videos. That is why a GIF post will usually show up here as an MP4 download instead of a .gif file. The Twitter GIF downloader covers that case with GIF-specific steps.

Why a download can open in a browser tab

Some browsers open a public media URL instead of downloading it immediately. If that happens, use the browser's save command from the new tab. Keep does not add a watermark or transcode the file.

Use downloaded media carefully

A public media URL does not grant usage rights. Download your own videos, assets you have permission to use, or posts where saving a local copy is allowed by the rights holder.

Questions

Frequently asked questions

Paste the public X or Twitter post URL above. If the post contains a video or GIF, the tool shows the MP4 variants X makes available.

Yes. X stores animated GIFs as MP4 files, so GIF posts usually download as MP4 videos.

No. It only works for public posts returned by X through public data. Private, deleted, or unavailable videos cannot be recovered here.

No. The page returns direct public media URLs. Keep does not proxy, store, or rehost the video files.

The tool lists the public MP4 variants returned for the post, including resolution and bitrate when available. The set varies by video: two to four renditions is common, topping out at 720p or 1080p.

Only if X stored that rendition. 1280x720 and 1920x1080 are the usual top variants. Nothing here upscales a smaller file.
