Where Does a Downloaded Video Go on iPhone, Android and PC

You pressed Download, the file saved, and now you can't find it. Here is where a video downloaded through VideoDownloaderPing goes on iPhone, Android and PC, and how to open it or add it to Photos or Gallery. The file is an MP4 and it saves through your browser. Public videos only. Only save videos you own or have permission to download. Not affiliated with any of these platforms.

Works with any public video link.

Only download content you own or have permission to use. You are responsible for how you use what you download.

File location by device

  • iPhone. The MP4 saves through Safari to the Files app. Open Files, go to Downloads and tap the video to play it. To add it to Photos: tap the video, open the Share sheet and select Save Video.
  • Android. The file lands in your browser's Downloads folder. Open your browser's Downloads list or a file manager to find the MP4. Your Gallery or Google Photos can show the video from there.
  • PC and Mac. The MP4 saves to your browser's download folder — the default Downloads directory for your user account. Open it from your browser's download list or your file manager.

    Save a public video with the VideoDownloaderPing home page or a platform page: paste the link, press Download, pick a quality if more than one is shown, and save the MP4.

  2. Open your browser's download list

    The file keeps the name the platform gave it.

  3. Look in the Downloads folder

    Every file saved through the browser lands there.

Questions

Where is the file on my iPhone?

In the Files app under Downloads. Videos saved with this tool save through your browser, and Safari puts them there. You can add the video to Photos from Files.

Where is the file on Android?

In your browser's Downloads folder. Open the browser's Downloads list or a file manager to find the MP4.

What format is the file?

MP4 — the file the platform serves for that video. Nothing is re-encoded.

Do you store my videos?

No. The link is sent to our server only to look up the video's file addresses — we don’t store your videos. For X (Twitter), Facebook, Instagram, Snapchat and Tumblr the file goes straight from the platform to your device; for Pinterest, TikTok and Twitch it passes through our server on its way to you and is never saved.
