GIFs on Twitter/X
Twitter GIFs are stored as MP4 loops. They download as silent MP4 files — expected behaviour since GIFs have no audio.
Private account videos
Videos from locked/private accounts cannot be downloaded without the account owner's permission.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does this work for videos in replies or quoted tweets?
Yes, as long as the tweet is public and contains a native X/Twitter video (not an embedded YouTube link).
Why does the tweet URL show 'x.com' instead of 'twitter.com'?
Twitter rebranded to X. Both twitter.com and x.com links work with Downloady.
