While the official Twitter app for iPhone allows you to save images to your device, it doesn’t support downloading videos. However, it turns out that there are several ways to download Twitter videos on the iPhone. So, if you’ve recently come across a video on Twitter that you wish you could save for later viewing, here are some of the best methods to download Twitter videos on the iPhone.
Method 1: Download Twitter Videos on iPhone With Shortcuts
Shortcuts is a scripting app on iPhones, iPads, and Macs that lets you create macros (called shortcuts) for performing specific tasks on your device. Additionally, you can also download shortcuts created by others and use them, which is what we’ll be doing here. First, head over to TVDL v3.1 shortcut page. You’ll now get a prompt asking you to open the shortcut in the Shortcuts app. Hit Open. Now, tap on the Add Shortcut button on the shortcut page, which should be added to your shortcuts gallery. With the shortcut added, open the Twitter app and follow these steps to download any Twitter video on your iPhone: TVDL should have downloaded your video now, and you can find it inside the Photos app.
Method 2: Download a Twitter Video on iPhone Using the AnySave App
AnySave is an iOS app that simplifies downloading videos from different social media websites, including Twitter. So, if you aren’t familiar with the Shortcuts app and want an easier way to download videos from Twitter on your iPhone, you can use the AnySave app. Start by downloading the AnySave app on your iPhone from the Apple App Store using the link below. Once the app is installed, follow these steps to download any video from Twitter using it: Download: AnySave As soon as you do this, AnySave will download and save the twitter videos to your Photos app.
Method 3: Download Twitter Videos on iPhone With a Video Download Service
Much like dedicated video-downloading apps, there are many websites that simplify video downloads on the iPhone. TWSaver, Twitter Video Downloader, SSSTwitter, and SaveTweetVid are some of the popular websites for downloading videos from Twitter that you can use. To download videos using any of these, first, copy the link of the video you want to save to your iPhone. Next, open any web browser, be it Safari, Chrome, or Brave, and visit any of these websites using the link above. After this, enter the copied URL of the video into the search box and hit the Download button.
Depending on which service you’re using, you may get an option to choose the format or video quality in which you want to download the video. Select the appropriate option, and you should find the video saved to your Photos library. On some of these downloaders, after you hit the Download button, you’ll see a pop-up window with two options: View and Download. Click Download on this prompt to begin downloading the video. On the other hand, when you hit Download on some other services, the video playback will begin instead. In this case, you need to click the Share button and select Save to Files to download and save the video to your iPhone.
Any Twitter video you download using any of the video downloader services is saved to the Files app. You can, however, save it to the Photos library by opening the video, hitting Share, and selecting Save Video from the available options.
Method 4: Download a Twitter Video on iPhone Using a Twitter Bot
A Twitter bot is essentially a Twitter account dedicated to performing a specific operation. It’s controlled via the Twitter API, and depending on what it’s intended to do, it performs the desired function itself accordingly. Downloading videos from Twitter is one of the many applications of Twitter bots. So if you download videos off of Twitter very often, or you want a solution that doesn’t require you to use another app or website, you can use a dedicated bot to download a video from Twitter without leaving the Twitter app. @SaveVidBot is the most popular video downloader bot on Twitter, and that’s what we’ll be demonstrating in this guide. Follow these steps to use this bot to download a Twitter video: The alternatives for @SaveVidBot include @DownloaderBot, @GetVideoBot, @SendVidBot and @Get_This_V.
Save Any Twitter Video to Your iPhone for Viewing Later
Downloading Twitter videos on iPhone is not as difficult as it may seem at first, thanks to the various apps and services that make it possible. We hope you’re able to download the video you wanted using the methods listed in this guide and are able to play it back without any problems.

Additionally, the app also works with other social media websites, such as Instagram and Facebook. So, if you use any of these websites too, this app can prove to be a really useful.
