Reddit hosts video directly on its own servers for most video posts (rather than embedding YouTube or another platform), and that native video is what this page downloads.
One real limitation worth knowing up front: Reddit stores a video's audio as a separate track from the video itself. Combining them back into a single file with sound needs additional server-side processing that this tool doesn't currently do, so native Reddit videos download as video-only for now — the format label says this clearly rather than handing over a silent file unexpectedly.
How to download
- 01Open the Reddit post in the app or in a browser.
- 02Tap the share icon and choose "Copy Link," or copy the URL from your browser's address bar.
- 03Paste the link into the box at the top of this page and press Download.
- 04Save the file once it's ready.

- The original image, for posts that contain a picture rather than a video.
Troubleshooting
- The downloaded video has no sound
- This is expected for now, not a bug — see the explanation above. Reddit serves video and audio as separate files, and this tool currently downloads the video track only.
- The post says it's unavailable
- Only posts from public subreddits can be downloaded here — content from private or quarantined subreddits, or a deleted post, won't resolve.
- It's a link to a video hosted elsewhere, not on Reddit
- Some Reddit posts are just a link to a YouTube or other platform's video rather than a native upload. Use that platform's own downloader page instead — this page only handles video that Reddit itself is hosting.

FAQ
- Why doesn't the downloaded video have sound?
- Reddit stores video and audio as two separate files. This tool downloads the video track only — combining them requires processing this project doesn't currently do.
- Can I download from a private subreddit?
- No. Only posts from public subreddits can be downloaded here.
- Does this work for redd.it short links?
- Yes, redd.it links resolve to the same post data as a full reddit.com link.
