Facebook remains one of the largest social networks globally, with billions of videos shared daily — including the increasingly popular Facebook Reels format. Despite this, Facebook offers no native option to save videos to your device for offline viewing.
This guide covers the best ways to save Facebook Reels and videos in 2025.
Types of Facebook Video Content You Can Save
- Facebook Reels — Short vertical videos, similar to TikTok and Instagram Reels
- Facebook Watch videos — Longer form content from pages and creators
- Public post videos — Videos posted to public profiles and pages
- Facebook Live replays — Recorded live streams available after the broadcast
All of these can be saved from public Facebook accounts using our tool.

Can I Save Videos from Private Facebook Profiles?
No. Our tool only works with publicly accessible content. Videos from private profiles, restricted pages, or Facebook groups with privacy settings cannot be saved without authentication.
Frequently Asked Questions
Why can't I just right-click and save a Facebook video? Facebook uses streaming technology that prevents simple right-click saving. The video is delivered in segments rather than as a single downloadable file.
Does this work for Facebook Stories? Facebook Stories from public profiles can be accessed, but they expire after 24 hours just like Instagram Stories.
Can I save Facebook Live videos? Facebook Live replays (available after the stream ends) from public profiles can be saved using the same method.
