Facebook: To download videos from Facebook, you’ll need to enable the “Facebook” option in the Save the Video settings.

YouTube: YouTube has its own built-in video download feature, so you don’t need to use Save the Video for YouTube videos. However, if you want to download videos from YouTube playlists or other non-embeddable videos, you can use Save the Video.

Instagram: Save the Video can’t directly download videos from Instagram. However, you can use the “Save the Image” option to save a screenshot of the video, which can then be converted into a video file.

Other sites: Save the Video works with a wide range of other websites, including Vimeo, Dailymotion, and Twitch.
