How to download X (Twitter) videos?
Open X and find the tweet with the video you want in HD.
Tap Share and select 'Copy link to post'.
Paste the link above and wait for the available qualities to load.
Pick 1080p and click Download.
HD on X (formerly Twitter) means up to 1080p (Full HD): it's the maximum resolution the platform offers for videos uploaded to a tweet. X doesn't distribute 4K video, so 1080p is the real ceiling. Paste the tweet link above — from x.com or twitter.com, it doesn't matter — and PullVid automatically loads the best quality available.
When you play a video on X, the app usually starts at low quality and works its way up depending on your connection; often it never actually shows you the real 1080p. PullVid downloads the file directly at the maximum resolution X stores, without recompressing. If you're only interested in the audio, there's the X to MP3 converter; and for animated GIFs, the Twitter GIF downloader.
What resolutions can you download?
- 1080p (Full HD): the maximum quality available on X for videos uploaded to the platform.
- 720p (HD): good sharpness with a more manageable file.
- 480p: a lightweight option for slow connections.
- Audio only (MP3): save just the sound from the tweet's video.
Why does only 720p sometimes appear?
X compresses every video on upload, and the final maximum quality depends on the file the author published. If the video was uploaded below 1080p, that's the top resolution that exists; no tool can recover detail that isn't in the original. PullVid always offers you the best version X stores. We cover it in the guide on downloading X/Twitter videos in MP4 HD.
x.com and twitter.com: the same video
After the rebrand, links can appear as x.com or as twitter.com, but they point to the same tweet. PullVid accepts both domains with no difference, so you don't need to convert the URL before pasting it.
Downloading in HD on mobile and PC
Copy the tweet link (Share icon → Copy link to post), paste it above, and choose 1080p. On PC the MP4 saves to Downloads; on mobile, to Android's downloads folder or the iPhone's Files app. Nothing to install.
Need HD on other networks? There's the TikTok HD downloader and the Instagram HD downloader.
Frequently asked questions about X (Twitter)
What's the maximum quality for downloading an X video?
PullVid downloads up to 1080p, the highest resolution X typically offers for videos uploaded to the platform. X doesn't have a 4K option, so 1080p is the real ceiling, not a limitation of the tool.
Does this downloader give me 4K video?
No. X doesn't distribute videos in 4K; the usual maximum resolution is 1080p. For real 4K on another platform, try the YouTube 4K downloader.
Does it work with both twitter.com and x.com links?
Yes, PullVid accepts links from both domains with no difference, since they both point to the same platform.
Why do I sometimes only see 720p instead of 1080p?
It depends on the quality the video was originally uploaded at in the tweet. If the source file is a lower resolution, that's the maximum quality available — we can never offer more detail than exists in the original.
Is downloading in HD free?
Yes, completely free. PullVid runs on one respectful ad per session, with no fake download buttons or redirects.
How is this different from the general X downloader?
Same technology, focused on quality: it auto-selects the best resolution available (1080p). To choose between all formats or download GIFs, use the X (Twitter) downloader; for audio only, there's the X to MP3 converter. Full guide at download X/Twitter video in MP4 HD.
