Question 1

Which Snapchat links are supported?

Accepted Answer

Public Spotlight clips, public Stories, shared Snap links and public profile Story links from snapchat.com or snap.com short links.

Question 2

Will the creator know I downloaded their Snap?

Accepted Answer

No. We request the public page the same way any browser does, so no notification or view event is attributed to you.

Question 3

Why does the file size say 'unknown'?

Accepted Answer

Some CDN nodes omit the content-length header. The download still works — the progress bar switches to an indeterminate estimate until the transfer completes.

Question 4

Can I download several Snaps at once?

Accepted Answer

Downloads run one link at a time to keep the tool fast and fair for everyone. You can start the next link as soon as the current file finishes.

Question 5

Is there a file size or daily limit?

Accepted Answer

No limit. You can download as many public Snaps as you like, free of charge.

Question 6

Do you keep the videos on your server?

Accepted Answer

No. The media streams straight through to your browser and nothing is written to disk.

Question 7

The audio download plays but has no video — is that a bug?

Accepted Answer

No, that is the audio-only option. It saves the source track as an M4A file, which most players will play without any picture.
