Social media downloader safety checklist.

Check the source

Use the original supported public link, not a copied mirror or unknown redirect.

Check your rights

Confirm you created the content, own it, manage it, or have permission to save it.

Check the tool behavior

Prefer browser-based tools that do not require bundled software, browser extensions, or noisy redirect chains.

Check where files go

Files should go to your own device or trusted storage. Avoid tools that turn your download into a public page.

Check your archive notes

Store source URL, date, platform, and permission context. The notes matter as much as the file.

Quick checklist

• Use supported public links.
• Save content you created, own, or have permission to keep.
• Keep the original URL beside the file.
• Use Pro when you need web downloads.
