Check a Facebook video or reel
Paste a link to a single public Facebook video or reel. The flow stays the same: check, choose a format, download yourself.
Live status: not tested yet No real download has been proven locally for this platform yet. Input, validation and the flow are implemented; the source may still refuse the request. No success is promised.
Your input and any running jobs are kept when you switch.
Download your own content or content you have permission to download. Being publicly visible does not automatically mean a download is allowed.

Good to know
- Many Facebook videos are reachable only when signed in. The service uses no third-party accounts.

Questions about this platform
Why does my Facebook link not work?
Facebook requires a sign-in for much content or restricts retrieval to certain regions. The service does not bypass that. Channels, stories and livestreams are rejected before they are sent.
Does the service support Facebook reels?
Reel links are recognised and handled like single videos. Whether the source releases the metadata is up to the source. A live proof is still pending.
The same limits apply everywhere: at most 200 MiB and 10 minutes per job, retrieval for 30 minutes at most, a limited queue and rate limits. Download only content that belongs to you or that you have explicit permission for. Public visibility is not permission.
