How to Download Twitter/X Videos and GIFs (2026)

Save tweets with video or animated GIFs to your device in one click.

Twitter (now called X) is filled with viral videos and GIFs, but the platform does not offer a built-in download option. To save a Twitter or X video, click on the tweet to open it, then copy the URL from your browser address bar. In the X mobile app, tap the Share icon and select Copy Link. Go to D4Y.online, paste the tweet URL, and click Go. The video will download in the highest available resolution — usually 720p or 1080p. Twitter GIFs are stored as MP4 files and will download the same way. Protected accounts cannot be accessed without authorization.

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.
