How to download X (Twitter) videos in high quality
Published 2026-09-22
Step-by-step guide to saving public X / Twitter videos with SaveTheX on savethex.com — paste a link or swap the domain.
What you need
A public X post that includes a video. Private or protected posts cannot be downloaded. Open savethex.com in any modern browser — no account required.
Method 1: Paste the link
Copy the post URL from X (Share, then Copy link). On savethex.com, paste it into the box and tap Get media. Choose Save video for the highest quality, or open More qualities for other resolutions.
Method 2: Replace the domain (fastest)
Take a link like https://x.com/username/status/123456789 and change only the host to savethex.com. Keep /username/status/… the same. Opening that URL loads SaveTheX with the download ready.
Example: https://savethex.com/username/status/123456789
Tips for best quality
We list the useful resolutions X actually serves for that post (often up to 1080p). Pick the top option unless you need a smaller file for messaging apps.
Ready to try it? Open SaveTheX and paste a public post URL — or swap x.com for our domain.
