What this Facebook downloader handles
HD and SD Quality Options
Facebook usually provides two quality tiers for videos. YTPro shows both when available, letting you choose the right balance of quality and file size.
Facebook Reels Support
Facebook rolled out its own Reels format. These short vertical videos can be downloaded exactly like regular Facebook posts - copy the link and paste it here.
Live Replay Downloads
When a Facebook Live ends and the host chooses to save the broadcast, the replay becomes a public video. These saved Lives can be downloaded through YTPro.
Facebook Watch Videos
Content published on Facebook Watch - shows, news videos, and creator uploads - is accessible for download as long as it is set to public.
No Facebook Login Needed
Public Facebook videos are accessible without signing in. You don't need to connect your Facebook account to download public content through YTPro.
Instant Results
Download links appear in seconds. No waiting room, no email confirmation, no countdown timers. Paste, click, and save.

How to save Facebook videos to your phone or computer

Facebook has billions of active users uploading millions of videos every day. Cooking demonstrations, political speeches, funny clips, live concerts, news coverage, family moments shared publicly - the variety of content worth saving is enormous.
The problem is that Facebook makes it difficult to download videos natively. There's no download button on most videos, and the platform actively discourages third-party saving. YTPro gives you a clean, fast way to save any public Facebook video without navigating through Facebook's menus or installing anything.
How to get the Facebook video URL
On desktop
- Click the three-dot menu at the top right of the Facebook post
- Select Copy Link from the dropdown menu
- Alternatively, click the video's timestamp to open it on its own page, then copy the URL from the address bar
On mobile (Facebook app)
- Tap the three-dot menu on the post
- Tap Copy Link
- Open YTPro in your browser and tap Paste
For Facebook Watch videos
- Open the video on Facebook Watch
- Copy the URL directly from your browser's address bar
- Paste it into YTPro

HD vs SD: which quality should you choose?
For most purposes, HD is the right choice. It gives you the video at its best available resolution - usually 720p, sometimes 1080p for more recent content. The file will be larger, but the viewing experience is much better.
SD is useful when storage or bandwidth is limited. It's a smaller file at a lower resolution, but it's still a perfectly watchable video. A five-minute video in SD might be around 50MB compared to 150MB in HD, so if you're downloading to an older phone with limited space, SD is a sensible choice.
Downloading Facebook Live replays
Facebook Live has become a major content format. Product launches, Q&A sessions, concerts, news events, and personal broadcasts all happen on Facebook Live. When the broadcast ends, the host can choose to save the video to their profile. If they do and the post is public, that saved Live recording can be downloaded through YTPro just like any other Facebook video.
Copy the link to the saved Live post, paste it in, and you'll get the full replay saved as an MP4 on your device.
What content cannot be downloaded
- Videos on private Facebook profiles or groups set to private
- Content restricted to Friends Only by the poster
- Videos inside closed or secret Facebook Groups
- Live broadcasts that are actively streaming (only saved replays work)
If a video comes back with no download links, it is almost certainly a privacy restriction on the Facebook post rather than a problem with YTPro. Check whether the post is actually publicly accessible by viewing it while logged out of Facebook.
