Common questions

Which Threads guide should I use?

Use the mobile guide on iPhone or Android, and the web guide when you are on threads.net or threads.com in a desktop browser.

Do threads.net and threads.com links both work?

Yes. Paste whichever URL your share sheet or browser provides — both hosts resolve to the same public Threads post on SMDownloader.

What URL shape do I need for Threads downloads?

Copy a public post URL from Share or the address bar — not a profile, search, or hashtag page. Paste the full post link on SMDownloader.

Can I copy a link from a private Threads account?

No. The post must be public. If Threads asks you to log in to view the post, the copied URL will not work on www.smdownloader.com.

Optional tracking parameters after ?

You can paste the URL as copied or trim optional params like ?xmt=…. SMDownloader accepts both threads.net and threads.com hosts.

How does SMDownloader fetch Threads media?

Paste a public post URL on www.smdownloader.com; our servers resolve video or images through /api/extract. You preview and save in your browser.
