Why Twitter X Downloader
X does not provide a clean export flow for mixed post assets like video, images, and text. Videos are streamed, image sets are mixed into dynamic layouts, and copying post text manually is tedious if you are building a clean local archive or research folder.
Twitter X Downloader is built for that exact workflow. It scans visible X posts, groups the detected media, and gives you a direct way to save useful content from the current page in a more organized format.
Features
- Video detection for X feed posts, profiles, and threads
- Image detection for visible post media
- Post text export for visible posts on the page
- Bulk-download workflow for all visible content in the current view
- Overlay buttons for faster in-feed downloads
- MP4 video saving where X exposes downloadable video streams
- Source-format image saving where available
- TXT export for post text
- Cross-browser support for Chrome, Edge, Brave, Opera, Firefox, Whale, and Yandex
How It Works
- Install the extension from the latest release.
- Open X and go to a feed, profile, or thread.
- Scroll until the posts you want are visible on the page.
- Open the extension popup to review detected videos, images, and text.
- Download individual items or use the bulk option for everything visible.
- Save the exported files locally for offline access.
Step-by-Step Tutorial: How to Download Content from X
- Install Twitter X Downloader from the latest GitHub release.
- Sign in to X if the posts you want require login to view.

- Scroll until the target posts and media are visible on the page.
- Click the extension button to scan the current view.
- Review the detected videos, images, and text entries.

Saved text exports are designed for cleaner offline reference and note-taking.
Who It's For
- X users saving posts for offline reference
- Content creators archiving their own media and post text
- Researchers, journalists, and analysts collecting public posts
- Social media managers curating examples or campaign material

Common Use Cases
- Save a video from an X post for offline viewing
- Download all images from a post or thread
- Export post text into plain text files for research or notes
- Bulk-download visible content from a profile page
- Archive your own media and posts into a local folder
Troubleshooting
The extension is not finding a post video Make sure the post is fully visible and the video has loaded on the page before scanning.
The image you want is missing Scroll the post into full view and rescan. The extension only captures media that is currently visible.
The bulk download missed some posts Scroll further so more posts load, then scan again. X uses dynamic page loading, so not every post is present at once.
The text export looks incomplete Expand long posts before scanning so the full text is visible in the browser.
The post requires login or restricted access The extension only works on content you can already access in your current X session.

About X
X is a social platform built around short posts, media sharing, live conversations, and trending content. While it is designed for fast browser and mobile consumption, it does not provide a simple native workflow for exporting mixed post assets like video, images, and text together. Twitter X Downloader simplifies that process for users who need a cleaner local archive workflow.
