Imgur Video Downloader: Download Imgur GIFs as MP4

Paste an Imgur link to save the video, or turn a GIF into an MP4 that’s smaller and plays everywhere. The sound can be saved as MP3 when there is one.

How to download an Imgur video or GIF

  1. 01

    Copy the post link

    In the Imgur app, open the post, tap Share and choose Copy link. In a browser, copy the imgur.com address; i.imgur.com links ending in .gifv work too.

  2. 02

    Paste it above

    Drop the link into the box and tap Download. If the post is an album, open the single video first and use its own link.

  3. 03

    Save the MP4

    Choose the MP4, or MP3 if the clip has sound, and save it. Keep only what you’re allowed to use, and respect the creator’s rights.

What SaveArrow does with Imgur links

  • GIFs saved as MP4

    Imgur GIFs come out as MP4 files instead of heavy GIFs. The MP4 is smaller and plays everywhere, from your phone’s gallery to chat apps and video players.

  • Videos too, not just GIFs

    Imgur video posts are saved as MP4 as well. If the clip has sound, you can also choose MP3 and get the audio converted on the fly while it downloads.

  • imgur.com and .gifv links

    Paste a regular imgur.com/… post link or a direct i.imgur.com/….gifv link; SaveArrow accepts both. For an album with several items, use the link of the single video you want.

  • No account, nothing stored

    It’s free and runs in Safari, Chrome and other browsers on iPhone, iPad, Android and computers. SaveArrow doesn’t keep your files or the links you paste, and download links expire after 10 minutes.

Frequently asked questions

How do I download a GIF from Imgur as MP4?

Copy the Imgur link, paste it on this page and tap Download. The GIF is saved as an MP4, which is smaller than a GIF file and plays everywhere.

Can I download a whole Imgur album?

Not in one go. Open the video inside the album, copy that single item’s link and paste it here.

Where do Imgur downloads go on my phone?

On iPhone, check Safari’s Downloads or the Downloads folder in the Files app. On Android, look in your browser’s Downloads or the Files app, then move the file to your gallery if you like.

Why won’t my Imgur link work?

Private and deleted posts can’t be saved. Make sure the post opens in your browser, and for an album, use the link of the single video instead of the album link.

Does the MP4 have sound?

Only if the original video had sound; GIFs are silent. When there is sound, you can also save it on its own as MP3.

Is the Imgur video downloader free?

Yes, with no account, no sign-up and no app. Files go from Imgur to your device; SaveArrow doesn’t store them or keep a history of your links.
