Finding a Reel's link

On a phone, tap Share on the Reel and choose Copy link. That gives a facebook.com/share/r/ link, which works here. On a computer, the address bar shows facebook.com/reel/ followed by a number.

Reels shared from Instagram

Many Facebook Reels are cross-posted from Instagram. Either link works: paste the Facebook one here, or the Instagram one into the Instagram downloader.

Frequently asked questions

Can I download Facebook Reels in HD?

Yes, when Facebook keeps an HD copy, which it does for most Reels. The HD version is listed first, with SD underneath.

Do Facebook Reel links from the Share button work?

Yes. The facebook.com/share/r/ link the Share button copies is followed to the Reel it points at.

Does a downloaded Facebook Reel include the sound?

Yes. The MP4 keeps the Reel's audio, including music and voiceover.

Is the video downloader free?

Yes. There's no account, no ads and nothing to install. Each connection can look up 25 links every 5 minutes, which keeps the service quick for everyone.

Do you keep a copy of the videos I download?

No. The tool reads the public post to find its video file and hands you the link. When you tap Download MP4, the file passes straight through to your device and no copy stays on our servers.

Why does a direct link stop working after a while?

TikTok, Instagram and Facebook sign their video links and let them expire. TikTok's last a few hours, Instagram's and Facebook's a few days. Paste the post link again for a fresh one.

Can I download videos from private accounts?

No. The tool sees exactly what a logged-out visitor sees, so private accounts, close-friends posts and members-only groups can't be downloaded.

Is it legal to download these videos?

The video belongs to the person who made it. Save videos for your own offline viewing or with the creator's permission, don't re-upload someone else's work, and follow each platform's terms. PhylixTools isn't affiliated with TikTok, Instagram, Facebook or Meta.
