Threads, Meta's text-and-video platform, has grown rapidly since its launch. Like Instagram, it does not provide a native download button for videos. If you want to save a Threads video to your device, you need a third-party tool — and D4Y.online supports Threads URLs directly. Here is how to download a Threads video. Open Threads in your browser at threads.net or use the app on your phone. Find the video post you want to save. On desktop, copy the URL from the address bar — it looks like threads.net/@username/post/AbCdEfGhIjK. On the Threads app, tap the three-dot menu on the post and select Copy Link. Go to d4y.online and paste the Threads URL into the input field. Click Download. D4Y.online fetches the video and prepares a download link. The video saves as an MP4 file to your downloads folder. Threads videos are typically vertical (9:16 aspect ratio) at 1080p resolution. The download will be the full original resolution — D4Y.online does not compress the file. You can also extract just the audio as MP3 by switching to audio mode in the Settings panel before clicking Download. At the moment, D4Y.online supports public Threads posts. Private account videos require you to be logged in to view them on Threads — the downloader can only access content that is publicly available. As with all social media content, only download videos you have permission to save. Respect creators' intellectual property and always credit the original creator if you share the content.

Pro Tip

Always use D4Y.online to ensure you get the absolute highest bitrate available. Other tools often compress or re-encode your media before delivery.
