(Note the following instructions are for Chrome but are very similar for other browsers)

Here’s how to save those FaceBook videos to your laptop or PC:

  1. Go to the post with the video you want to download
  2. Right-click on the video and select “Copy video URL at current time” 
  3. Paste the URL into your browser address bar, it should look something like this: https://www.facebook.com/…/videos/12345…9/
  4. Change the “www.” to “m.” i.e. https://m.facebook.com/…/videos/12345…9/
  5. Hit enter
  6. Play the video
  7. Now you will need to open up the Developer Console (Alt Option + Cmd + J)
  8. Inspect the video element using the icon at the top left of the developer console (you can also toggle it by pressing Shift + Cmd + C
  9. Click on the video and you’ll see the box on the developer console. Copy the video URL and paste it in another tab. Hit enter.
  10. Finally, right-click on that video and hit “Save video as”
  11. Name your video something exciting, sexy (or dumb), and hit enter.

As I mentioned, the Google Chrome instructions are very similar to the ones for Edge, Internet Explorer (you still using that?!), Opera and Firefox.

Here’s a video that walks you through all the steps.
