How will the downloader handle Snapchat Spotlight videos?

The downloader is planned to intercept video stream URLs from Spotlight videos viewed on Snapchat's web player. It is expected to save them at the highest available quality, matching the creator's original upload resolution.

Can I save public Stories before they expire?

Yes, saving public Stories within their 24-hour window is intended. The extension will work with public Story content accessible via Snapchat's web interface, allowing preservation before automatic deletion.

Will Snap Map videos be downloadable?

The extension is planned to capture location-based videos and community stories from Snap Map when viewed through Snapchat's web interface. These public posts are expected to be saved locally.

How will batch downloading work?

A queue feature is being developed to allow multiple videos to be selected and downloaded sequentially. Files are planned to be named automatically by content type, creator, and date for organization.

What browsers will the extension support?

The downloader is intended to work on Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Edge, and Opera browsers. It is being built as a browser extension for these platforms.

Where will my downloaded videos be stored?

All processing is designed to stay local on your device. Video data will not be sent to external servers, and files are expected to save directly to your designated download folder.

How will interrupted downloads be handled?

A persistent queue state is planned, meaning if a download is interrupted, the extension will resume where it left off. This aims to prevent data loss from connection drops.

Will the downloader access private snaps sent to me?

No, the extension is not intended to access private direct messages, friend-only stories, or any content behind login restrictions. It is designed solely for publicly viewable content on Snapchat's web interface.

Use Snapchat Video Downloader only for videos you own or have permission to save. Respect the platform and creators, and do not redistribute downloaded videos without the necessary rights.

Finally a real way to archive my own Snapchat content

I create content on Snapchat and usually worried about losing my Stories after 24 hours. Now I archive everything I post as soon as it goes live. Way better than screen recording with quality loss.

Changed how our team tracks Spotlight trends

Our marketing team monitors Spotlight trends for campaign inspiration. Being able to download trending videos instead of just screenshotting them has been invaluable for our creative briefings.

Good for saving Snap Map travel memories

I travel a lot and love saving Snap Map community stories from places I visit. The batch queue makes it easy to grab a dozen videos from a location in one go before moving on.
