Guides

General social-media downloading guides — the cross-platform stuff that applies whether you're saving from TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, Twitter / X, Pinterest or Reddit. Think setup explainers, format comparisons (MP4 vs MOV, MP3 vs M4A), and "which downloader to use when" decision trees.

These Guides are written for creators, students, marketers and journalists who need to archive social content reliably. We cover the fundamentals once so the platform-specific posts don't have to repeat them.
