Save public X videos for offline reference: a quick guide for researchers and journalists

Why keeping a local copy of a public X video helps, and how to do it with a free tool.

Posts can be edited, deleted or hidden, so researchers, journalists and community managers often want a local copy of a public video for reference. X Downloader lets you paste a public post link, pick an MP4 quality and download the file without creating an account.

For documentation, the tool can also capture a screenshot of the public post, and for audio work it can convert the video to MP3 locally in the browser.

Keep copyright in mind: use saved media for reference or with the creator’s permission.
