What is the X (Twitter) Video Downloader?
The SnapTok X (Twitter) video downloader saves videos and GIFs from public tweets as MP4 files in their original quality. Open the tweet, tap the Share icon and choose Copy link to Post, then paste the URL into the box at the top of this page and tap Download. Both new x.com URLs and legacy twitter.com URLs are accepted automatically. GIFs are saved as MP4 because that is the format X uses internally. SnapTok picks the highest bitrate variant the tweet exposes, so the file is identical to what X serves to its own app — no quality loss and no watermark added. It runs in any browser on iPhone, Android, Windows and macOS, with no app, no signup and no daily limit. Private and protected tweets cannot be downloaded; respect the original poster's copyright.

How to Download X (Twitter) Videos & GIFs Free
- 1
Copy the tweet link
On x.com, twitter.com or the X mobile app, tap the Share icon under the tweet that contains the video or GIF and choose Copy link. Both x.com/user/status/… and legacy twitter.com/… URLs are supported, plus t.co short links.

Paste it into snaptok.org
Drop the URL into the box above. SnapTok pulls the underlying MP4 straight from X's video CDN (video.twimg.com), automatically converting tweet GIFs to true MP4 (X stores GIFs as silent MP4 internally). The file is passed through without re-encoding.
- 3
Save HD MP4 or MP3 audio
Choose the highest resolution the tweet exposes — usually 720p or 1080p depending on the uploader — or extract MP3 audio for podcast clips and quotes. The file saves directly to your iPhone Camera Roll, Android Gallery or desktop Downloads folder, with no watermark added by SnapTok.
Why Use SnapTok for X (Twitter)?
Videos and GIFs in one tool
Native tweet videos and animated GIFs both save as playable MP4 — no conversion step needed.
Original tweet quality
SnapTok requests the highest bitrate variant X publishes so saved clips are sharper than screen recordings.
x.com and twitter.com aware
URL migration is handled transparently; both old and new domains resolve to the same source video.
No X Premium required
Works without an X (Twitter) Premium / Blue subscription and without logging in to any account.
Frequently Asked Questions
Will the tweet author know I downloaded their video?+
No. X does not notify users when their public tweet videos are downloaded via snaptok.org, and we do not touch their account or analytics.
Can SnapTok download videos from protected (private) tweets?+
No. Only public tweets can be downloaded — protected accounts require an approved follow and stay private.
How do I download a tweet GIF as an actual .gif file?+
X stores 'GIFs' as silent MP4s, so SnapTok returns MP4. To get a true .gif, save the MP4 first and convert it with any free MP4-to-GIF converter.
What video quality does SnapTok deliver?+
Whatever the tweet uploader published — usually 720p, often 1080p on newer posts. SnapTok never re-encodes downwards.
Does it work on iPhone Safari?+
Yes. On iOS, the download is delivered as a direct .mp4 that Safari opens and saves via Save to Files → Photos. Tested on iOS 17 and iOS 18.
Can I download Twitter Spaces or live broadcasts?+
No. SnapTok covers public tweet videos and GIFs only. Live Twitter Spaces audio and X Live broadcasts are not supported.
