Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions regarding video quality, mobile support, formats, and safety.
How does the Facebook Private Video Downloader work?
When you are logged into Facebook in your browser, Facebook embeds signed temporary CDN links inside the page source. By copying the page HTML (Ctrl+U) and pasting it into SaveVideo, our parser extracts those signed video links so you can save the MP4 directly.
Is it safe? Will SaveVideo access my Facebook account?
It is 100% safe. We never ask for your username, password, or cookies. The HTML source code is parsed in memory to locate public CDN video streams. No login tokens or sensitive account data are stored or transmitted.
Can I download videos from secret or closed Facebook groups?
Yes! As long as your personal Facebook account has permission to view the video in the group, the page source in your browser contains the signed stream URLs. Just copy the page source and paste it here.
How do I copy page source on mobile devices?
On Chrome or Firefox mobile, prepend "view-source:" to the beginning of the URL in your browser address bar (e.g., view-source:https://www.facebook.com/watch/?v=...). Then select all and copy.
