HOW TO EASILY DOWNLOAD FACEBOOK VIDEOS ON IPHONE

Facebook videos can also be downloaded on Android and iPhone devices using various apps available. However, most of the apps are not trustworthy and could compromise the security of your device. It is recommended to download videos on your Android phone using a browser, as most of the apps available have a poor UI.

 On iOS devices as well, we found that the app route is very difficult. They need a desktop app called Cydia Impactor which will need your Apple credentials to generate a certificate for a third-party app or can jailbreak your Apple device. We don’t recommend doing either of these, as they can compromise your device's security.

To download Facebook videos on your Apple iPhone or iPad follow the below-mentioned steps. 

1. Open the Facebook video in the Facebook app or the website which you want to download. 

2. Next, click the share and then tap Copy Link. 

3. Open fbdown.net in a browser like Firefox which supports downloading. 

4. Then paste the link where it asks you to and click Download.

5. On the next page, simply tap and hold on to the quality you wish to download the video in, whether normal or HD.

6. Next click on the Download link in Firefox. 

7. Next, go to your browser's download section. On Firefox, you can find it via the hamburger icon on the bottom-right on the iPhone. Open the section and click on the video. 

8. Next click on the ‘Save Video' option.
