Private Facebook Video Downloader
Private videos take three steps: enter the link, open the page source in a new tab, then paste that source back here.
Free, no sign-up. We never store the videos or links you paste.
Highlights

- Your cookies stay yours: your browser opens the page; the server only reads the text you paste.
- Works for group videos: as long as you personally have access to the video.
- Discarded after use: the pasted source is not stored.
How to
Three steps, under a minute.
Enter the link
Paste the private video URL you have access to into step 1.

Paste the source back
Press Ctrl+A then Ctrl+C there, come back and paste into step 3.
FAQ
Why paste the source?
Private videos only render for a logged-in session. This way your own browser loads the page and the server never needs your account.
Is it safe?
The server only scans the pasted text for a media URL and then discards it. No credentials or cookies are sent.
Can I do this on a phone?
It is awkward — mobile browsers usually block view-source:. A desktop browser is easier.
It says nothing was found
Usually the copy was partial. Press Ctrl+A to select the whole page before copying.
