How do I download a Snapchat video?

Open Snapchat, tap the share icon on the Spotlight clip or public Story and copy the link. Paste that link into the box above, press Download, then pick the video, audio or image format you want.

Is the SSgrab downloader free?

Yes. Every format — 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p video, M4A audio and full-resolution images — is free and unlimited. The site is supported by non-intrusive ads only.

Do downloads have a Snapchat watermark?

No. We stream the original file from CDN, so what you save is exactly what was uploaded, with no extra watermark or re-encoding.

Can I download private Snaps or someone's chat?

No. Only publicly shared content with a public link can be resolved. Private Snaps, direct messages and friends-only Stories are never accessible through this tool.

Does it work on iPhone and Android?

Yes. The downloader runs entirely in your mobile or desktop browser — Safari, Chrome, Edge, Firefox and Samsung Internet are all supported with no app install.

Can I save only the audio from a Snap?

Yes. Switch to the Audio tab in the results panel and download the M4A track — perfect for saving a sound or voice-over.

Frequently asked questions

About this Snapchat downloader

Snapchat is built around content that disappears, which makes it easy to lose a clip you actually wanted to keep — a Spotlight video that made you laugh, a public Story from a creator you follow, or a photo Snap you were tagged in. This downloader gives that content a permanent home on your own device by resolving the public media links Snapchat already serves to your browser.

When you submit a link we request the public page exactly the way a browser does, then read every place Snapchat can expose media: Open Graph and Twitter card tags, embedded JSON-LD video objects, the inline application state, and any direct CDN references in the markup. Each candidate is verified with a range request before it is offered to you, so the formats you see in the results panel are the formats that will actually download.

The result is a single panel with the preview on the left and every download option on the right, grouped into Video, Audio and Image tabs. Each option shows its container, quality tier and exact file size so you can decide between a full-quality 1080p MP4 and a lighter 360p copy for a slow connection. Selecting an option reveals its download button, and the transfer streams through our proxy with a live progress bar instead of an opaque "please wait" spinner.

Please use the tool responsibly. Downloading public content for personal, offline viewing is generally fine, but re-uploading someone else's Snap, removing creator credit or using it commercially without permission is not. Review our Terms & Conditions and Privacy Policy before you start.
