How to check and download a video with All

Found a video you want to watch again without searching through your feed? All gives you a place to submit its public link and inspect the media available from that request. Copy the individual post address, paste it into the field above, and select Download. The platform guides help with the next decision: choosing the right post, checking the returned file, or understanding why a particular link did not work. Start with a video you own or have permission to save.

Copy a link that opens one video

Open the video itself before copying anything. An account profile, a search page, and a playlist are places to discover videos, but they do not necessarily identify the recording you want. If a link arrives in a message, follow it and check the creator, thumbnail, and running time. Then use the post's share option to copy its address. Paste only the URL into the input field, without the accompanying message. On a computer, the address bar is useful once you have opened the individual post.

Match the download guide to the hosting platform

Choose the platform page when you need help with a particular kind of link. Instagram posts and Instagram Reels have separate guides, as do Facebook videos and Facebook Reels. A Reddit discussion may contain a video hosted elsewhere, while a Pinterest Pin might lead to an external project page. Those differences affect which address is useful. The tool names are navigation aids, not a promise that every post can be downloaded. If you are unsure where a clip came from, open its original source before choosing a page.

Choose a usable file and resolve a failed request

Confirm the preview before starting a transfer

Wait for the request to finish, then look at the returned preview and available choices. Confirm that the image belongs to your video rather than an advertisement, a cover image, or another item from the post. Select an offered download and let the browser complete the transfer. Afterwards, open the file and check a few seconds of playback. A preview appearing on the page is not the same as a file being saved. Your browser's download list is the best place to check whether the transfer finished.

A quick check before you close the result

Confirm that the preview matches your source, the browser reports a completed transfer, and the local file plays. If only the preview is visible, the video may still be on the web rather than saved to your device. Keep the original tab open until those checks are done.

Work out whether the link or the download failed

If no result appears, first test whether the source link still opens normally. Copy a fresh address from that post and try again after a short pause. A video that needs your signed-in account may not be accessible to this service. Removed posts and unsupported media can also produce an error. Repeatedly submitting the same link will not restore missing content. If you report a problem, include the public URL, the message shown, and your device or browser; never include your password or other private account details.

Find your saved videos and keep the source handy

Locate the file on your phone or computer

Files are easier to find when you name them for their subject instead of leaving several similar downloads together. For example, use a project name and a brief description of the step shown. Keep the source address in a note if you may need to revisit the caption. On a phone, a completed download may be in the Files app or browser download list rather than the photo gallery. Check available storage before saving longer recordings, and remove incomplete duplicates once you have confirmed that a working copy exists.

Build a reference folder you can actually use

Give each recording a name that describes why you kept it: a sewing step, a meeting topic, or a particular demonstration. Put its source URL in a note with any instructions that live outside the footage. Before sharing someone else's work, check permission for that use and retain the agreed credit. If the file is your own recording, keep the original separately from the social copy. Your camera or editing file may contain details that were reduced when the video was uploaded.

Using All: links, saved files and sharing

Help with video links, results and saved files.

Where should I start with a shared video?

Open the shared link and confirm which post contains the video. Copy that post's address into All; use its platform guide if the source is unclear or the post contains several items.

Where will my saved video appear?

Look in your browser's download list first. The file may be in your device's Downloads folder or Files app, and a preview on this page does not mean the transfer has finished.

What should I check before sharing a saved clip?

Check the creator's permission for your intended use, keep the source credit, and include any explanation needed to understand the footage. Sharing the original post can be more useful when its caption contains essential details.

Does seeing a preview mean my video has been saved?

No. The preview shows media returned by the request. Complete an available download, then check the browser download list and open the local file to confirm it was saved.
