Why MP4?
MP4 is the most widely supported video format. It plays in every browser, phone gallery, video editor and smart TV, so a Twitter / X video saved as MP4 just works.

Tap the Share icon under the post, then Copy link. Paste it above, press Download, pick MP4 and a quality, then wait for the countdown.
What a Twitter / X MP4 is like

Frequently asked questions
Which MP4 quality should I choose for Twitter / X videos?
Pick the largest size your phone or screen can show, or a smaller one to save storage and data. Free downloads go up to 720p; a Quick Pass unlocks 1080p and above where Twitter / X offers it.
Will the Twitter / X MP4 play on my phone, TV and editing software?
Yes. We use the widely compatible H.264 codec wherever the site provides it. A few very high resolutions use HEVC (H.265), which most modern devices play.
Why can't I download a video from a post?
The account may be protected, the post deleted, or X may require a login to show it (for example sensitive content). Those cannot be fetched.
Does it work for videos in replies and quote posts?
Use the link of the post that actually contains the video. For a quote post, copy the link of the quoted post.
What quality are X videos?
Up to what the poster uploaded, commonly 720p to 1080p. We list each available quality.
Is it free to use?
Yes. Downloads are free. Free downloads start after a short countdown, and a Quick Pass removes the wait and unlock the highest qualities and larger batches.
