How to Download Twitter Videos on Your Phone
Short answer: Copy the public tweet link, open Doresa in your mobile browser, paste the URL, tap Download, and save the MP4 to your phone. No app install or X login is required.
Millions of people watch Twitter videos on their phones every day, but X does not include a built-in save button. This guide shows exactly how to download Twitter videos on iPhone, iPad, and Android using a browser-based tool that works in Safari and Chrome.
What you need before you start
- A public tweet that contains a video (not a text-only post)
- The X app or mobile browser to copy the tweet URL
- Safari (iOS) or Chrome (Android) to open Doresa
- Enough storage space for the MP4 file
Private accounts, deleted tweets, and protected posts cannot be downloaded. Open the tweet in a browser first to confirm it plays without logging in.
Supported URL format
Paste a link that looks like one of these examples:
https://x.com/username/status/1234567890123456789
https://twitter.com/username/status/1234567890123456789
How to download on iPhone and iPad
- Open the X app and find the video you want to save.
- Tap Share, then Copy link.
- Open Safari and go to the Doresa homepage.
- Paste the URL into the input field and tap Download.
- Wait until the progress bar reaches 100 percent. Keep the tab open.
- Open the Files app, tap Downloads, and play or share the MP4.
If the video does not appear in Photos, that is normal. Browser downloads usually land in Files first. VLC for iOS is a reliable fallback player.
How to download on Android
- Copy the tweet link from the X app (Share, then Copy link).
- Open Chrome and visit Doresa.
- Paste the link and tap Download.
- Check the notification shade or your Downloads folder for the finished MP4.
