1. What we do

SnapSave helps you keep a copy of public media for personal, offline use. Whether it’s a video you want to watch on a flight, a clip to reshare with friends, or audio you want to keep, you paste a link, choose a quality, and save the file to your phone or computer. There is no software to install and no sign-up.

2. Why we built it

Most downloaders are cluttered, pushy or unsafe, and many quietly disappear. We wanted the opposite: a clean, fast, honest tool that respects your privacy, supports a huge range of platforms, and works in your own language — built to last and to stay on the right side of the rules.

3. How it works

It is the same three steps everywhere:

  • Copy the link to a public post.
  • Paste it into the tool on our homepage.
  • Pick a quality — up to Full HD or 4K when the source allows — and download.

Your link is used only to prepare the download and is then discarded. We never see your account and never store your files.

4. What we stand for

  • Public content only. We don’t support private, password-protected, paywalled or members-only material.
  • Nothing stored. Your link is processed in the moment, then gone. We keep no copy of your files and no history tied to you.
  • No login, fully anonymous. No account, no email, no profile.
  • Honest about quality and watermarks. We keep the original quality and never make promises we can’t keep.
  • Respect for creators. The Service is for personal use; we ask everyone to honour copyright and each platform’s rules.
  • Free and ad-supported. A few light, policy-compliant ads keep the Service running.

5. How we keep it free

SnapSave is free because it is supported by advertising, including Google AdSense. We aim to keep ads light and non-intrusive, and we never charge you, lock features behind a paywall, or sell your personal data. You can read exactly how ads and cookies work in our Privacy Policy and Cookie Policy.

6. Platforms and languages

We support a wide and growing range of platforms — from Facebook, TikTok, X (Twitter) and Pinterest to Reddit, Threads, LinkedIn, Snapchat, Vimeo, Dailymotion and many more — for video, photos and audio. The site is available in 31 languages, so people around the world can use it comfortably in their own language. Browse the tools from our homepage.

7. Privacy and safety

Privacy isn’t an afterthought — it’s the design. Because we store almost nothing, there is almost nothing to leak. We don’t require permissions, we don’t install anything on your device, and we don’t track what you download. See our Privacy Policy for the details.

8. Independent and not affiliated

SnapSave is an independent service and is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of the platforms it works with. All trademarks belong to their respective owners. See our Disclaimer and Terms.
