Save a public Facebook video in a normal Chrome tab. No extension, no app, no account — just a link and a download.

Downloading Facebook videos in Chrome
You do not need a Chrome extension to save a public Facebook video. Open fbsave.me in a normal tab, paste the post link, choose a quality and download the MP4. The page runs in a normal browser tab; the link you paste is sent to our backend so it can prepare the file. There is no extension with broad access to your browsing data.
On Windows, Mac, Linux and ChromeOS the file goes to your Downloads folder. On Android Chrome it usually goes to Downloads and appears in your gallery. The workflow is the same on every platform; the only difference is where the operating system stores the file.
Downloader extensions often request permission to read and change data on every site you visit. This method needs no extension permissions at all. That does not make every website safe by default — you should still use a site you trust and never enter your Facebook password into a download tool.
Desktop Chrome
Open the public video in one tab and fbsave.me in another. Copy the link from Facebook’s Share menu or the address bar, paste it into the tool, choose a quality and save the MP4. On a managed Chromebook or work profile, nothing needs to be installed, so browser policy does not block the workflow.
Chrome on Android
Copy the link from the Facebook app, open Chrome at fbsave.me, paste and download. The file normally lands in Downloads and is picked up by the gallery. If Chrome asks where to save, choose a folder you can find later.
When a download stalls
Check that the post is public by opening the link in an incognito window without logging in. If the video is visible there, try copying the link again; share links can be truncated by some apps. If Chrome blocks multiple downloads, allow downloads for fbsave.me in the address-bar site settings and retry one file at a time.
A browser tab, not an extension
No install
