What is Threads — and why you need a downloader
Android makes browser downloads simple, but the Threads app itself still has no save button for videos. This guide shows the quick Chrome route: copy the post link, paste it here, and download the MP4 straight to your Downloads folder — where your Gallery app usually picks it up automatically, no extra downloader needed.

Private by design
We never ask you to log in, and no files are stored on our servers. Your link is processed in memory and the media streams straight from Threads' CDN to your device. Nothing is saved, tracked, or shared.
Frequently asked questions
Where do Threads videos save on Android?+
Chrome saves the MP4 to your Downloads folder and shows it in the notification shade. Most phones also list it in the Gallery or Files app under Downloads.
Do I need an app to download Threads videos on Android?+
No. Chrome (or any modern Android browser) handles the download on its own — there's nothing to install.
The video opened instead of downloading — how do I save it?+
Tap the Download button on this page rather than the preview. If the file opens in the browser, use the browser's menu (⋮) → Download, then check your Downloads folder.
Do I need to log in or give a password?+
No. You never log in and we never ask for a password or any account access. You only paste a public link — that's the entire interaction.
Do I need to install any software or an app?+
No. This is a web tool that runs entirely in your browser. There's nothing to download or install, and it works the same on a phone, tablet, or computer.
Is it really free?+
Yes, completely free with no limit on how many downloads you can make. There's no account, no subscription, and no watermark added to your files.
Is it safe, and do you collect my data?+
Processing passes through our server so we can reach Threads, but we don't store your links, the media, or any logs, and we never ask you to sign in. Nothing about what you download is saved, tracked, or shared.
Can I download from a private Threads account?+
No. This only works with public posts and profiles — the same content anyone can see in a browser without logging in. Private accounts are protected by Threads and we don't bypass that.
Is there a watermark on the files?+
No. You get the original file exactly as Threads serves it — no logo and no quality loss from us.
