About FastVid
A transparent Facebook video downloader
FastVid is a browser-based utility for checking public Facebook video and Reel links. We focus on a simple workflow, accurate limitations and clear information about what happens after a link is submitted.
What FastVid does
FastVid validates a submitted media URL, sends the recognized public link to a configured media gateway and displays the formats returned for that request. A direct file may be proxied for download, while some separated audio and video formats require a temporary render job.
Availability, resolution, audio and format depend on the source response. FastVid does not host a permanent video library and does not improve or reconstruct a missing quality.
What FastVid does not do
FastVid does not provide a Facebook account, ask for your Facebook password or bypass private profiles, group membership, audience controls, paywalls, age gates or regional restrictions.
FastVid is not Facebook, Meta or an official partner. Facebook and Meta names and trademarks belong to their respective owners.
How we review the service
Public documentation is written around the behavior we can test: supported hostnames, common link patterns, returned formats, browser download behavior and render states. Pages show a review date where freshness affects the instructions.
When behavior changes, we update the workflow and remove claims that are no longer supported. We do not publish invented review scores, download counts or performance statistics.
Responsible use
Use FastVid for your own media, content you have permission to save, public-domain material or another lawful use. Downloading a publicly viewable file does not automatically grant permission to republish, sell or modify it.
