24 Feb How to download photos and videos from Instagram, YouTube, and Facebook

In the height of the social media era, we still often ask ourselves how to download a YouTube video or an Instagram photo. And many times it’s not as obvious as it seems, so we need the help of an app or a website.

In this post, we’ll give you some tips to download any type of content from any social network. Ready?

Downloading Facebook Videos

It may seem simple and obvious, but the process of downloading a Facebook video is quite different from downloading a photo. You see a video on your Facebook feed that you want to download. Here are the steps:

Option 1

1 – Click on the video
2 – In the top right corner, click on the three dots that appear on the post
3 – Select download video/photo

Option 2

There is a website where, by entering the full URL of the Facebook video or photo, you can download it. You have the option to download it as mp3 (audio only), mp4 (audio and video), or mp4 HD.

For video: https://fdownloader.net/es
For photo: https://ttok.com/facebook-photo-downloader/?lang=es

Downloading YouTube Videos

In this case, the procedure is very simple. Copy the URL of the YouTube video and paste it into this page:
https://turboscribe.ai/es/downloader/2025-01-01/youtube/video

Once you paste the link, you can choose between several formats, both audio and video, and finally click the download button.

Downloading Instagram Photos

The ultimate question: how do I save an Instagram photo to my phone? It seems like something basic that should be available to everyone, but Instagram does not provide this option. However, by adding a Chrome extension, you can download photos from this social network with just one click.

Here is the link to install the extension:

Once installed (it only takes a few seconds), go to Instagram and when you hover your mouse over a photo, a download icon will appear. If you click it, the photo will automatically download.
