Facebook Reels Downloader: Save Reels in HD

Marukit's Facebook Reels Downloader is a free web tool that saves public Facebook Reels as vertical MP4 files with sound, or as MP3. Paste a Reel link and pick a quality, with no app or sign-up.

We fetch the video from the platform when you press Download and delete our copy as soon as it has been sent to you. We don't keep a record of the links you paste.

About this tool

It works with facebook.com/reel/ links and other facebook.com and m.facebook.com links to public Reels. Choose MP4 (best quality), one of up to four sizes between 2160p and 360p that the Reel has, or MP3 (audio only) at 192 kbps. The Reel keeps its vertical shape, and MP4 files use H.264 video with AAC audio whenever Facebook offers them, so they play on iPhone, Android and WhatsApp.

Only download videos you own or have permission to use, and respect the creator's copyright. Private posts can't be downloaded.

Tips for Facebook

  • Reel links look like facebook.com/reel/…; full facebook.com and m.facebook.com links work.
  • Reels are vertical (9:16). 'MP4 (best quality)' keeps the size Facebook has; pick 720p or lower for a smaller file to send on WhatsApp.
  • Want just the song or voice-over? Choose MP3, or open Facebook to MP3, which picks it for you.
  • Only save Reels you made or have the creator's permission to use, and credit them if you repost.

Download not working? Quick fixes

  • Make sure the post is public: open the link in a private browser window. If it asks you to log in, it can't be downloaded.
  • Copy the link to a single post, not a profile or a search page.
  • Wait a minute and try again: platforms sometimes slow down requests for a short time.

Limitations

  • Only public posts work. Private, friends-only, age-restricted or deleted posts can't be fetched.
  • Posts with several videos (carousels) download the first video.
  • Platforms change often. If Facebook changes something, downloads may fail for a while until we update.
  • Videos longer than 60 minutes or larger than 300 MB are refused, to keep the service fast for everyone.

Frequently asked questions

Which Reel link should I copy?

Tap the Share arrow on the Reel, then Copy link. A link like facebook.com/reel/… works best. If a short fb.watch or facebook.com/share link fails, open it in your browser and copy the address it ends up on.

Does the Reel stay vertical?

Yes. You get the Reel in the shape it was posted, usually 9:16 portrait, so it fills a phone screen. Nothing is cropped or upscaled.

Will the Reel keep its music?

Yes. The MP4 has the sound exactly as it plays in the Reel. Choose MP3 if you only want the song or voice-over.

Can I download Facebook Stories?

No. Stories need a login to view, and Marukit never signs in to Facebook, so only Reels and videos that anyone can open can be saved.

Does the downloaded Reel have a watermark?

Marukit adds no logo or watermark. Text, stickers or logos the creator put into the Reel itself stay.

Where is the downloaded file saved?

On iPhone, Safari saves it in the Files app under Downloads; to add a video to Photos, open it, tap Share, then Save Video. On Android it goes to Downloads and shows up in your Files or Gallery app. On a computer it goes to your Downloads folder. Ctrl+J in Chrome or Edge (Cmd+Shift+J in Chrome on a Mac) opens the browser's list of downloads.

Is there a size or length limit?

Yes. Videos can be up to 60 minutes long and the file up to 300 MB; longer or bigger ones are refused. To keep the service fast for everyone, you can start up to 10 downloads a minute.

Do I need an account or an app?

No. There's no account to create and nothing to install: it works in the browser on iPhone, Android and PC. Marukit doesn't sign in to Facebook either, so only public posts can be downloaded.

Is it free?

Yes, it's free.

Do you store the videos I download?

No. The file is deleted from our server as soon as it has been sent to your device.

Why did my download fail?

If the link opens a Story or a profile instead of the Reel, open the Reel itself and copy its link. Other common causes are listed under Quick fixes on this page.

Is downloading videos legal?

Download only videos you own or have permission to use. Re-uploading someone else's content can break copyright law and the platform's rules.
