in the world. It’s a constant source of the latest news, funny videos, and all sorts of fascinating information. One of the things that people can share is videos, from hilarious gifs to home-made videos, but Reddit doesn’t make it easy to download them.

Fortunately, there are a few websites that make it possible to download Reddit videos. Not all of them download videos with the full audio track, as Reddit stores these separately, but some of them can do this. In this article, we’ll take a look at some of the best options available, as well as how to get them to work.

How to Copy a Reddit Video Link

In order to use any of the websites on this list you’ll need to follow these instructions to get a link to the video itself:

Video URL

Go to the Reddit thread with video you want to download.

Highlight all the text in the address bar of your browser.

Right click

and then click on

Copy

, or press

Ctrl + C.

Direct Video Link

Go to the Reddit thread with video you want to download.

Click on

Share

below the video.

Click on

Copy Link.

Redv

One of the simpler options available,

redv

can help you download videos from Reddit quickly and easily. The web version will only download the video or audio separately though, so if you want to capture both together, you’ll need to download their

desktop app

.

Here’s how it works:

Paste the video’s URL or link into the text box by right clicking it and then clicking on

Paste

. Alternatively, left click in the box and then press

Ctrl-V.

Click on the

orange arrow

, and it will take you to a page showing the video.

Click on the orange

Download

button, and it’ll then take you to the video itself.

Click on the

three vertical dots options button

at the bottom right of the video.

Click on

For an even quicker way to use it, you can just add ”dl” after ”reddit” in the URL. This will automatically take you to the download page on Redv.

For example:

becomes

https://www.redditdl.com/r/Unexpected/comments/ch50h1/ummm/

Paste the video’s URL or link into the white text box by right clicking it and then clicking on

Paste

, or by left clicking in the box and then pressing

Ctrl-V

Click on the yellow

Submit

button

To download just the video, click on the

three vertical dots

at the bottom right of the video on the left of the screen, and click on

Download

To download the video with the audio, click on the red

button

Your download should automatically start

RipSave

If you need a bit more flexibility, you probably won’t go wrong with

RipSave

. It gives you a number of options in terms of video quality which can range, depending on the source, from 240p all the way up to 1080p. You can download the video with or without audio as an mp4, as well as the audio track as an m4a file.

Here’s how to download a video using RipSave:

Paste the video’s URL or link into the white text box by right clicking it and then clicking on

Paste

, or by left clicking in the box and then pressing

Ctrl + V.

Click on the purple

button to the right of the video quality level that you want to save.

A window will pop up. Right click on the green

Download .mp4

Left click on

Save as…

Navigate to where you want to save the video.

Enter a name for the video.

Click on

RipSave is actually great for downloading from other sites as well, as it supports saving from YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and more. It’s pretty useful to have this functionality all in one place.
