Is SMDownloader a free social media video downloader?

Yes. SMDownloader is a free social media downloader and SM video downloader that runs in your browser. Paste a public link from a supported platform, preview the media, and save to your device — no account, app install, or payment.

What does the Download button do?

The Download button starts a temporary retrieval of public media from the linked platform so you can preview it in your browser. That step does not save a permanent copy on our servers. When you choose to keep the file, your browser saves it locally — the same as any normal web download.

Is SMDownloader affiliated with social platforms?

No. SMDownloader is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Instagram, Facebook, TikTok, Threads, YouTube, X, Douyin, SoundCloud, or any other platform. See our Platform Disclaimer for details.

Does SMDownloader store videos?

No. SMDownloader does not host, store, archive, or publish third-party media. Processing is temporary and user-initiated — we fetch and stream media back to you without retaining a permanent copy.

Can I download any public video?

No. Public availability does not mean you have legal permission to download or reuse content. You must own the content or have permission from the rights holder.

Who is responsible for downloaded content?

You are solely responsible for every URL you submit and for how you use downloaded files.

Can copyright owners request blocking?

Yes. Copyright owners can send notices to copyright@smdownloader.com. We may block specific URLs, domains, or platforms in response to valid complaints.

Which platforms are supported?

See our Platforms page for current networks, accepted URL formats, and copy-link guides.
