Download videos from Bluesky

Paste the link of a Bluesky post that has a video, and the sizes that video is available in appear. Choose one to save an MP4, or switch to MP3 to keep only the sound. To get the link, open the post's share menu and choose Copy link to post; the address looks like bsky.app/profile/name/post/ followed by a code.

What quality you get

Bluesky does not hand out the file that was uploaded. It plays videos as a stream in a few sizes, and those sizes are what can be saved. In our test the post offered 720p and 360p, and the 720p download came out as a 30-second H.264 video at 1280x720 with AAC sound, which plays on any phone, TV or computer. The size of each copy is shown before you save.

Bluesky video to MP3

The Audio tab turns the video into an MP3 at 64, 128, 256 or 320 kbps, with the post's thumbnail as the cover. It is handy for a song clip, a speech or anything you want to hear rather than watch.

On iPhone, Android and computers

On an iPhone, open this page in Safari and paste the link. The MP4 goes to the Files app; tap Share, then Save Video, to put it in Photos. On Android, use Chrome and the file lands in Downloads. On a computer any current browser works, and nothing needs installing.

When a post will not load

  • The post has been deleted, or its author removed the video.
  • The post has only pictures. There is no video to save.
  • The video is a link to YouTube or another site rather than a Bluesky upload. Copy that original link and paste it on the matching tool here.

Only download videos you made, have permission to save, or that are clearly licensed for reuse. This site has no connection with Bluesky.
