How to download Twitter / X videos in HD

Saving a video from X takes about ten seconds and works the same way on every device:

  • Copy the link. Open the tweet with the video, tap the share icon and choose Copy link, or copy the URL straight from your browser address bar.
  • Paste it above. Drop the link into the input box at the top of this page. Both twitter.com and x.com links work.
  • Pick your quality and save. We list every resolution X serves for that video. Press Download on the HD option and the MP4 lands in your downloads folder.

There is no watermark on anything you save, because we deliver the original file exactly as X hosts it. Nothing gets converted, stamped or compressed on the way through.

Twitter video download in HD: 720p, 1080p and 4K explained

X stores each video in several resolutions and serves viewers the version that matches their connection speed. Screen recording a tweet, or using a weak downloader, often leaves you with a blurry 270p or 360p file. This Twitter video downloader HD tool reads the full list of versions behind the tweet and picks the highest bitrate one, so the copy you keep is the sharpest copy that exists.

As a rule of thumb, most everyday uploads top out at 720p HD. Videos posted from good source material reach 1080p, and only a small share of uploads carry anything higher. If a 4K version exists for the post, it shows up in the quality list. If it does not, no downloader on the internet can create it, and any site claiming otherwise is simply upscaling a smaller file.

Twitter to MP4, no converter needed

Searching for a Twitter to MP4 converter usually means extra steps: download the video, upload it to a converter site, wait, then download it again. You can skip all of that here. X already delivers video in MP4 form, so the file you save from this page is a clean .mp4 from the start. It plays in your phone gallery, drops straight into CapCut or Premiere, and posts anywhere without conversion.

The same goes for animated GIFs. X actually stores GIFs as small looping MP4 videos, so when you save one you get a tiny MP4 that loops perfectly. If you specifically want GIF handling, use our dedicated Twitter GIF downloader or read the full guide on downloading Twitter GIFs as MP4.

Save X videos on any device

On iPhone (Safari)

Paste the tweet link on this page in Safari and press Download. iOS saves the MP4 to the Files app. Open Files, go to Downloads, tap the video, hit share and choose Save Video to keep it in your Camera Roll. No shortcut, app install or jailbreak required.

On Android

Chrome saves the MP4 straight to your Downloads folder and it appears in your gallery automatically. If your browser asks where to save, pick Downloads or your SD card. The file is yours either way.

On PC and Mac

Paste the link, choose the HD option and the MP4 saves to your computer. Files are ready for editing in Premiere, DaVinci Resolve or CapCut desktop, and they play in any player like VLC.
