Frequently asked questions

For platform-specific questions — Instagram watermarks, TikTok slideshows, and so on — see that platform's own page.

Do I need to create an account?

No. Paste a link and download — there's no signup, login, or app install required.

Is this free to use?

Yes, downloading supported public videos is free.

Is ClipGrab the same as GrabClip?

Yes — people often search for this tool as "GrabClip" as well as "ClipGrab." Both point to the same site.

Can I use this as an Insta downloader?

Yes. The Instagram video downloader page handles public Reels, posts, and IGTV videos — see the Instagram page for details.

Why can't I download a private account's video?

Private and friends-only content is restricted by the platform itself, and that restriction applies here the same way it applies to viewing it directly.

Does downloading a video notify the poster?

No — viewing and downloading a public video works the same way loading the page does, and doesn't trigger a notification to the poster.

Can I use downloaded videos commercially?

That depends entirely on the rights to that specific video, not on how it was downloaded. If you didn't create it and don't have permission, treat it as copyrighted material.

Why does quality vary between platforms?

Each platform encodes and compresses video differently, and only offers the resolutions it originally generated for that specific upload.
