LinkedIn Video Downloader
How to save LinkedIn videos on desktop and mobile — the complete 2026 guide.
LinkedIn doesn't offer a native download button
LinkedIn intentionally doesn't let you download videos directly. The methods below work for your own videos or videos you have permission to repurpose. Always respect content ownership and LinkedIn's Terms of Service.
🖥️ Method 1: Desktop (Chrome / Safari)
Find the video post on LinkedIn
Navigate to the LinkedIn post containing the video you want to save.
Click the three dots (•••) menu
Click the "More" menu (three dots) in the top-right corner of the post.
Select "Copy link to post"
This copies the direct URL of the post to your clipboard.
Paste into a LinkedIn video downloader site
Use a browser-based tool (search "LinkedIn video downloader") and paste the post URL. The site extracts the video file for download.
Download the MP4 file
Click the download button and save the video to your device.
🛠️ Advanced: Browser Developer Tools
- 1. Open LinkedIn and navigate to the video post
- 2. Right-click anywhere and select "Inspect" (or press F12)
- 3. Click the Network tab, then filter by "Media"
- 4. Press Play on the LinkedIn video — you'll see .mp4 requests appear
- 5. Right-click the .mp4 URL and "Open in new tab", then save the video
📱Method 2: Mobile (iOS & Android)
Open the LinkedIn app and find the video
Scroll to the video post you want to download.
Tap the three dots (•••) on the post
Tap the "More" option in the post header.
Tap "Copy link to this post"
This saves the post URL to your clipboard.
Open a video downloader in your browser
Open Safari or Chrome, go to a LinkedIn video downloader site, and paste the link.
Save the video to your camera roll
Tap download and save to Photos.
Repurposing your own LinkedIn videos
If you created a LinkedIn video yourself, you can request your data archive from LinkedIn: Settings → Data privacy → Get a copy of your data. This gives you the original files without needing a third-party tool.
Once you have your video, repurpose it into a LinkedIn post with a text breakdown — it often outperforms the video itself in reach. Use our text formatter to style the post.
Frequently asked questions
Is downloading LinkedIn videos legal?
Downloading content you don't own may violate LinkedIn's Terms of Service and copyright law. Only download videos you created or that you have explicit permission to repurpose.
Why doesn't LinkedIn have a download button?
LinkedIn removed native video downloading to protect creators' content rights and to keep users on the platform. The workarounds above work because the video files are still served as standard MP4s over the web.
Can I download someone else's LinkedIn video?
Technically possible with the methods above, but you should only do so with the creator's permission. Using someone's content without credit or consent is bad practice and potentially a legal issue.
