Paste a public post link to download Threads videos and photos in HD without watermark.
Paste a link from Threads above to load its media and show download options here.
Files stream straight from Meta's CDN to your device. Nothing is stored here. Only download content you own or have permission to use.
A Threads video downloader without watermarks, ads, or an account step. One field, one button, and a file on your device.
Threads publishes each photo at several sizes. We list them all, largest first, and stream whichever one you pick straight through — nothing is re-encoded, resized, or watermarked on the way past us. Video is a straight Threads to MP4 pass-through: the file you save is the one Threads serves its own player.
It is a Threads photo downloader and a video downloader in the same field — single clips, photo posts, and mixed carousels all resolve. Each item in a carousel gets its own download, so you can take one out of ten and leave the rest.
Every Threads video download is streamed from Meta's CDN to your browser and never written to disk here. Only a short-lived metadata cache exists.
One responsive page, so the same Threads downloader online serves iOS Safari, Android Chrome, and desktop through the identical flow, with no app to install.
No login, no third-party analytics scripts, and no advertising trackers on any Threads download. Your clipboard stays your business.
A whole Threads video download takes about ten seconds, on desktop or phone. The Threads photo downloader is the same three steps.
In the Threads app, tap the ••• menu on the post and choose Copy link. On the web, copy the URL from the address bar.
Drop the link into the field and press Download. We read the post's public metadata and list every media file it holds — video, photo, or a carousel of both.
Options are ordered largest first, so an HD thread download is the top row. Pick one and it saves straight to your device with a descriptive filename. Nothing is queued or emailed.
ThreadsDownload is a Threads video downloader and a Threads photo downloader in one field, for publicly posted media only. Here is precisely what that covers, and where it stops.
Paste a public post link and the video is listed at every quality Threads publishes, largest first. The file you pick is streamed through byte for byte — no watermark is stamped on, no frame is re-compressed, and no branding is burned into a corner. A Threads video downloader without watermarks is less a feature here than an absence: there is no branding step in the pipeline to switch off. Nothing is upscaled either, so a clip recorded at 720p stays 720p whatever other tools claim.
Photo posts and mixed carousels resolve the same way, so used as a Threads photo downloader this behaves identically to the video path — same field, same list, same byte-for-byte stream. Every item gets its own card with its own set of sizes, so you can take one image out of a ten-image carousel and leave the rest. Photos arrive as JPEG: Threads stores them as HEIC and its CDN converts on delivery, so the file is named for what the bytes actually are.
One responsive page in the browser, with no app and no extension to install, which means you can download Threads videos and photos from a phone without adding anything to it. Tap the ••• menu on a post, choose Copy link, paste it here, and save. On iOS the file lands in Files and can be moved into Photos; on Android it goes to Downloads and the gallery usually picks it up on its own. Desktop saves wherever your browser normally does.
The download proxy has no storage layer — bytes arrive from Meta's CDN and leave for your browser in the same breath, so there is no archive of any Threads download to leak. No accounts, no cookies, no analytics scripts, no ad pixels. Resolved post metadata sits in memory for about ten minutes so a repeat lookup does not hit Threads twice, and then it is gone.
Private accounts, follower-only posts, and age-restricted content cannot be resolved, because their media is not publicly served. That is a boundary rather than a missing feature — reaching them would mean impersonating a logged-in follower. Lookups are capped at twenty a minute per address to keep the service available for everyone.
The person who posted a video owns it, and saving a copy does not transfer that. Keeping your own posts, and keeping personal offline copies of things you are allowed to keep, is what this is for. Re-uploading someone else's work as your own is a copyright problem however the file was obtained.
Still deciding whether this fits what you need? The FAQ answers 24 questions on Threads download quality, formats, and limits, including every error the downloader can show, and the about page covers the limits in more detail.
The 8 that come up most often. The full directory also covers file sizes, privacy, every error message, and copyright.
The Threads downloader accepts any link to a single public post. Both threads.com and threads.net work, with or without the https:// prefix, and any tracking parameters on the end are ignored.
A link to a profile rather than to one post will be rejected with an explanation — that is the single most common mistake, so it gets its own error message.
None of the three. This is a Threads downloader online and nothing more — one page in your browser: paste a link, pick a file, done. There is nothing to register for, nothing to install, and no paid tier hiding the good options.
JPEG, every time. This is the one part of the Threads photo downloader that surprises people, so it is worth explaining properly.
Threads stores uploaded photos as HEIC, and the URLs in a post's metadata still end in .heic. But those URLs also carry a conversion instruction, and Meta's CDN converts on the way out — what actually arrives over the wire is a JPEG. So the file is named .jpg, because that is what the bytes are.
As a backstop, the download proxy also checks the Content-Type of the response and names the file from that. If Meta ever changes how the conversion is signalled, you still get an extension that matches the contents rather than an unopenable .heic.
The first one. Options are ordered largest first, so the top row is the biggest rendition Threads publishes for that item — that row is your HD thread download.
The smaller rows exist for when you want a lighter file — sending a photo in a chat, say, rather than archiving it. Sizes below 1080px on the long edge are not listed at all, because at that point they are thumbnails rather than downloads.
One caveat worth being straight about: the largest rendition Threads publishes is Threads' own copy, not the untouched file the uploader selected from their camera roll. No downloader can reach the latter, and any that claims to is guessing.
Not by us. We read the rendition list from the post's own public metadata and stream the one you pick straight through, byte for byte. No watermark is added, no frame is re-compressed, and no branding is burned in.
Threads usually publishes the same video at a few quality tiers. Duplicates are collapsed so you see the tiers you can actually choose between, largest first. Picking the top row gives you the original bitrate and resolution as Threads published it — an HD thread download with nothing altered in between.
No. Every Threads video download is piped from Meta's CDN through to your browser as it arrives. Nothing is buffered to disk, nothing is written to a database, and there is no archive of past downloads to leak or subpoena.
That is a structural property, not a promise about our intentions: the proxy has no storage layer to write to.
The error message on screen names the specific cause. In order of how often they come up:
If the message says something went wrong on our side rather than naming one of the above, waiting a minute and retrying is genuinely the right move.
Not without their permission. The person who uploaded it owns it, and a download button does not transfer that.
What this tool is for: saving your own posts, and keeping a personal offline copy of things you are allowed to keep. Re-uploading someone else's video as your own is a copyright problem regardless of how you obtained the file.
Paste it in and your Threads video download starts before you finish reading this sentence.
