Facebook Video Downloader Apps?
Many apps on iPhone and Android claim to help you download Facebook videos on your phone, but they tend to require clunky implementations,don’t always work as advertised (look at the reviews), and sometimes break when Facebook updates.
For example, here’s a 2-star review from one of these Facebook video downloader apps:
The app is lately having a lot of problems. I’ve been trying to download a video five times and right when I hits 100% the app closes and no video. Also, the search bar on “Liked Pages” doesn’t work, also kicks me out of the app. I spent money to have unlimited downloads because at the beginning I thought it was worth it, yes it took a bit looking and getting to the video but it did the job. Now I’m starting to regret it and will probably will look for another downloader.
This is why we’re not going to tell you to go download someone else’s app to solve this problem. There’s a straightforward way to handle this using your computer. By the way if you downloaded your facebook apps and want email automation then we wrote a guide about that too!
