How to Use AnyReelGrab

AnyReelGrab is designed to be the fastest way to save a social media video to your device. Here's how to use it in under 30 seconds, plus a few pro tips.

The 3-Step Process

Copy the video URL. Open the video on any supported platform (YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, etc.) and tap the Share button, then choose Copy Link.
Paste it on AnyReelGrab. Head to our homepage and paste the link into the input box. We'll auto-detect the platform.
Click Download. We fetch the highest-quality MP4 available and hand it to your browser, which saves it to your downloads folder.

Platform-Specific Guides

Each supported platform has its own dedicated page with a step-by-step walkthrough:

Pro Tips

Use the "Paste" button on mobile to skip the tap-and-hold gesture — one tap and you're done.
Bookmark the site so it's always one tap away.
Add to Home Screen on iOS or Android to use AnyReelGrab like a native app.
Downloads too slow? Some platforms rate-limit high-quality streams — try again in a minute.
Multi-video Reddit posts — paste the URL of the specific comment/post; playlists aren't supported yet.

What If Something Doesn't Work?

Video hosting sites frequently update their internal APIs to prevent scraping, which can occasionally break a specific platform for a day or two while we update our extractor. If a video fails to download:

Double-check the URL is public (private posts, DMs, and follower-only accounts don't work).
Wait a few minutes and try again.
Try refreshing the page.
If it still fails, let us know and we'll investigate.

Is There a Mobile App?

Not currently — and honestly, you don't need one. AnyReelGrab is a Progressive Web App that works perfectly in Safari on iOS and Chrome on Android. Just tap Add to Home Screen from your browser's share menu and you get an app-like icon that opens the tool instantly, full-screen, no browser chrome.
