How it works

  1. Copy the link

    Open the post with the video and copy its link — usually Share, then Copy link.

  2. Paste and tap Download

    Paste the link in the box below. BasePic finds the video in a few seconds.

  3. Save it

    Pick Full quality or Smaller, and the MP4 is saved to your phone or computer.

A video grabber that keeps the quality

BasePic takes the highest resolution the site offers. Videos that come in formats many devices can’t play, like AV1, are turned into a standard MP4, so they open on iPhone, Android, Mac and Windows.

Works with the sites you use

Paste links to public posts on X (Twitter), Facebook and Instagram. Save the photos from a post with Download photo, and files from Google Drive, Dropbox and OneDrive with Download file.

No app, no sign-up

Everything happens on this page, on any phone or computer. Download only videos you have the right to use. Downloaded files stay on BasePic for one hour and are then deleted.

How do I download a video from a link?

Copy the link to the post, paste it into the box on this page and tap Download. Then tap Download next to Full quality or Smaller.

Which sites are supported?

Public posts on X (Twitter), Facebook and Instagram. Private posts and posts that need a login can’t be downloaded.

Is the video saved in full quality?

Yes. Full quality is the highest resolution the site offers. Smaller is about half the file size.
