Built for Mac

Everything feels calm, fast, and familiar.

SnapDown keeps the whole workflow simple: add a link, follow progress, revisit past downloads, and open finished files without digging through folders.

Save locally

Your downloads are saved directly on your Mac, so your videos stay where you expect them and are ready whenever you need them.

Find things again

History makes it easy to return to past downloads, play saved files, or reveal the exact item in Finder.

One app, many sites

Use SnapDown with YouTube, Bilibili, TikTok, Twitter/X, Instagram, and many other popular video platforms.

Download

Install SnapDown in a minute.

Download the macOS installer, drag SnapDown into Applications, and start saving videos on your Mac. Current version: 0.5.0 Public Beta.

1. Download the DMG

Get the latest macOS build from our download server. The installer is served separately so the website stays fast and stable.

Frequently asked questions

Helpful answers before you try SnapDown or purchase a license.

Can I use SnapDown on more than one Mac? +
A personal license is for one active Mac at a time. When you move to a new Mac, you can deactivate the old one and activate the new one.
Does SnapDown send my files to your servers? +
No. SnapDown is built around a local Mac workflow. Your downloaded files stay on your machine unless you choose to move or share them.
What if a website changes and downloads stop working? +
Video websites change often. When that happens, SnapDown may need an update before that site works normally again. We keep improving compatibility as platforms change.
Why would one video fail even if the site itself is supported? +
Some videos require login, are region restricted, private, removed, or temporarily unavailable. For certain logged-in videos, using local browser cookies can help.
Can SnapDown export audio only? +
Yes. SnapDown can save audio-only files for supported sources, along with regular video downloads when formats are available.
Do I need to create an account before I can use it? +
No account is required to try the app. When you are ready to keep using SnapDown, activate your license directly on your Mac.
I lost my license. How can I get it again? +
Use the license recovery page and enter the email you used at checkout. If a matching license exists, we will email your recovery instructions. For security, SnapDown never displays license keys on the website.
How can I contact SnapDown? +
For license questions, download issues, unsupported sites, or general support, email us at support@snapdown.pro. We read every message and use reports to improve SnapDown.
