How to Save a Video from Facebook to iPhone
Facebook is a treasure trove of memories, entertainment, and information. However, the platform does not allow users to directly download videos from its website to their devices. If you’re an iPhone user and want to save a video from Facebook for offline viewing, here’s a step-by-step guide on how to do it.
Step 1: Open the Facebook App
The first step is to open the Facebook app on your iPhone. Ensure that you are logged in to your account.
Step 2: Navigate to the Video
Scroll through your news feed or search for the video you want to save. Once you find it, tap on the video to play it.
Step 3: Take a Screenshot
When the video is playing, press the “Home” button and the “Power” button simultaneously. This will take a screenshot of the video. If you have a newer iPhone with a “Power” and “Volume Up” button, press both buttons at the same time.
Step 4: Save the Screenshot
After taking the screenshot, you will see a preview of the screenshot on your screen. Tap on the “Save” button in the bottom-left corner to save the screenshot to your iPhone’s Camera Roll.
Step 5: Open the Screenshot
Go to your iPhone’s Camera Roll and open the screenshot you just saved. The screenshot will be a still image of the video frame you captured.
Step 6: Crop the Screenshot
Tap on the screenshot to open the editing options. Use the crop tool to trim the image to the size of the video frame. This will help you get a closer view of the video content.
Step 7: Save the Cropped Image
After cropping the image, tap on the “Save” button in the bottom-right corner to save the cropped image to your Camera Roll.
Step 8: Use a Video Editing App
Now that you have a still image of the video frame, you can use a video editing app to convert it into a video. There are many free and paid video editing apps available on the App Store, such as iMovie, InShot, or Adobe Premiere Rush.
Step 9: Import the Image and Convert to Video
Open the video editing app of your choice and import the cropped image into the project. Follow the app’s instructions to convert the image into a video.
Step 10: Save the Video
Once the video is converted, save it to your iPhone’s Camera Roll or another folder of your choice.
And there you have it! You have successfully saved a video from Facebook to your iPhone. Now you can enjoy your favorite videos offline, anytime and anywhere.
