How to Download MP4 Videos from Facebook Groups

xi (apiproai.com) can download videos from public Facebook Groups — just copy the video link and paste it into xi like any other Facebook video.

Only public group videos can be downloaded. Private group content is off-limits to all downloader tools.

How to download in 4 steps

Open the video post in the group and tap the timestamp or Share → Copy Link.
Go to apiproai.com.
Paste the link and tap Download.
Save the MP4 in your preferred quality.

Why use xi for Facebook Group videos?

There are many ways to save Facebook Group videos — screen recording, browser extensions, third-party apps — but most come with trade-offs. Screen recordings lose quality and capture notifications and UI elements. Third-party apps often demand your Facebook login (a real account-theft risk), show aggressive ads, or quietly upload your contacts. Browser extensions can read everything you browse.

xi avoids all of that:

No login, ever. xi never asks for your Facebook username or password.
Original quality. Files come straight from Facebook's servers — no recompression, no watermarks added.
Nothing to install. It runs in your browser on iPhone, Android, tablet and desktop.
Free with no caps. No accounts, no subscriptions, no daily limits.

Saving Facebook Group videos on iPhone, Android and desktop

On iPhone (Safari): open xi at apiproai.com, paste the link and tap Download. When the file is ready, tap the download icon in Safari's address bar, open the file, then tap the Share button and choose Save Video (or Save Image) to move it into your Photos library.

On Android (Chrome): the process is even simpler — after tapping Download on xi, the file saves straight to your Downloads folder and appears in your gallery app automatically.

On desktop: paste the link into xi, click Download, and the file lands in your browser's download folder. From there you can rename it, move it, or import it into any video editor.

Troubleshooting

"No media found" or empty result: the most common cause is a private or deleted post. Copy a fresh link directly from the Facebook app (Share → Copy Link) rather than from a screenshot or a third-party site, and try again.

Download starts but never finishes: switch to a stable Wi-Fi connection and avoid VPNs that throttle traffic. Very long videos can take a minute or two to prepare — give it time before retrying.

Button doesn't respond on iPhone: make sure you're using Safari (not the in-app browser of another app). If the page seems stuck, pull down to refresh and paste the link again.

File won't play: MP4 and MP3 from xi play in every modern player. If your gallery app can't open it, try VLC — it's free and handles everything.

Tips

Only public groups work — 'Private' group content is restricted to members.
If the group recently switched from Public to Private, old links stop working.
Always respect group rules about sharing content outside the group.

Frequently asked questions

Can I download from a private group I'm in?

No — private group videos are only served to members, and downloaders can't authenticate as you.

What if the group is public but the video fails?

The post may have been deleted, or the video's own privacy is stricter than the group's.

Do I need to join the group?

For public groups, no — the video link alone is enough.

Can admins tell I downloaded?

No — xi fetches the file server-side; there's no download notification.
