Facebook doesn't give you a built-in way to save a Reel or a shared video to your device. SaveReels lets you paste a public facebook.com or fb.watch link and download the video in HD — no login, no app install. This guide covers Android, iPhone, and desktop, and how to pull out just the audio as an MP3.
Step-by-step
- Open Facebook and find the public Reel or video you want to save.
- Tap Share, then choose Copy Link (or Copy Link to Reel).
- Open savereels.online/en/facebook-reels-downloader in your browser.
- Paste the link into the input box and tap Download.
- Choose HD or SD quality, or tap MP3 for audio only.
- Confirm the download when your browser prompts you to save the file.
How to download Facebook Reels on Android
Open the Facebook app, find the Reel or video, tap the Share icon, and choose Copy Link. Open Chrome and go to savereels.online/en/facebook-reels-downloader. Paste the link and tap Download.
Once resolved, the file downloads to your Downloads folder or Gallery app. If the download pop-up is blocked, tap the notification at the bottom of the screen to confirm it.
How to download Facebook Reels on iPhone
On iPhone, tap Share on the post and choose Copy Link. Open Safari, go to savereels.online/en/facebook-reels-downloader, paste the link, and tap Download.
Safari shows a download icon in the toolbar once the file is ready. Choose Save to Files if prompted, then open the Files app to find the video.
Which Facebook links work
Public Reel links (facebook.com/reel/…), video links (facebook.com/watch/…), and fb.watch/… share links all work. The video or Reel must be visible to someone who isn't logged in — content from private profiles or closed groups can't be resolved.
Extracting Facebook video audio as MP3
To save just the audio — a song, a speech, a podcast clip shared as a Reel — tap MP3 instead of Download after pasting the link. SaveReels extracts the audio track from the resolved video into a standalone MP3 file, using the same public link as the video download.
If download fails
- Make sure the profile, Page, or group the video was posted in is public — private content cannot be downloaded.
- Copy a fresh share link directly from Facebook; older copied links sometimes fail.
- Disable aggressive ad blockers for savereels.online — they can interfere with the download trigger.
- If one specific video fails but others work, that post may have been deleted or made private since you copied the link.
- Try an incognito/private window if the download button doesn't respond in your normal browser.
