Why Use RDSave?
RDSave is built specifically to make saving publicly accessible Reddit videos simple.
How to Download Reddit Videos
Downloading a Reddit video with RDSave takes just a few steps.
Copy the Reddit Video Link
Open the Reddit post containing the video you want to save. Select Share and then choose Copy Link.
Paste the Reddit Link
Return to RDSave and paste the copied Reddit URL into the downloader above. Click Download to process the link.
Choose the Video Quality
RDSave will display the available download options for the Reddit video. Choose your preferred quality and save the MP4 file to your device. If the original Reddit upload includes higher-resolution video, options up to 1080p may be available.
Download Reddit Videos With Sound
One of the most common problems when saving a Reddit video is getting a video file with no audio.
This happens because Reddit may deliver the video and audio as separate media streams. A basic downloader may retrieve only the video stream, leaving you with a silent file.
RDSave is designed to process the available Reddit video and audio streams and prepare them as a single MP4 file when audio is available in the original post.
So instead of manually finding and combining separate files, you can paste the Reddit post URL and download the prepared video.

Reddit Video Quality and Format
The video quality you can download depends on the versions available from the original Reddit post.
Can RDSave Download Reddit Videos in 1080p?
Yes, when Reddit provides a 1080p version of the original video. If the source video is only available in a lower resolution, RDSave cannot create a true 1080p version that does not exist in the source. The downloader displays the available options so you can choose the quality that best suits your device and connection.
Are Reddit Videos Downloaded as MP4?
RDSave prepares downloadable Reddit videos in MP4 format. MP4 is widely supported across modern phones, computers, browsers, video editors, and media players, making it convenient for offline viewing or personal storage.
Download Reddit Videos on Any Device
You do not need special software to use RDSave. All you need is a modern web browser and the link to a publicly accessible Reddit video post.
Download Reddit Videos on iPhone or iPad
- Open the Reddit post.
- Tap Share and select Copy Link.
- Open RDSave in Safari or another browser.
- Paste the Reddit URL and tap Download.
- Choose the available video quality and save the file.
Depending on your iOS version, files appear in the Files app or your Downloads folder.
Download Reddit Videos on Android
- Copy the Reddit post link.
- Open RDSave in Chrome or another browser.
- Paste the link into the downloader.
- Tap Download and select the available quality.
The MP4 file will normally be saved to your device's Downloads folder.
Download Reddit Videos on Windows or Mac
Copy the Reddit video post URL from your browser, paste it into RDSave, and select the download option you want. No desktop software or extension is required.
What Reddit Links Can RDSave Process?
RDSave is designed for publicly accessible Reddit posts containing video. Simply copy the Reddit post URL using Reddit's Share option and paste it into the downloader. Download availability depends on the media attached to the original post and whether Reddit makes that media publicly accessible.
A download option may not be available when:
- The Reddit post has been deleted;
- The post is private or otherwise inaccessible;
- The video is no longer available;
- The URL does not contain downloadable video media;
- The post embeds media hosted by an unsupported external service.
If a Reddit link does not work, first open the post normally and confirm that the video is still publicly accessible.
Why Does a Downloaded Reddit Video Have No Sound?
Reddit can deliver video and audio separately instead of storing them as one traditional video file. This means manually saving the visible video stream may result in an MP4 that plays correctly but has no sound.
RDSave handles the available streams for you and combines video with its corresponding audio when the original Reddit media contains an audio track.
Some Reddit videos genuinely have no audio in the original upload. In those cases, a downloader cannot add sound that was never present.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is RDSave free to use?
Yes. RDSave is currently available as a free Reddit video downloader and does not require an account.
Can I download Reddit videos with sound?
When the original Reddit video contains audio, RDSave can combine the available video and audio streams into a single MP4 file. If the original post has no audio track, the downloaded video will also have no sound.
Can I download Reddit videos in 1080p?
Yes, if a 1080p version is available from the original Reddit source. The available resolution always depends on the quality of the original upload.
Why does Reddit separate video and audio?
Reddit may use adaptive streaming technology that delivers video and audio as separate streams. This improves streaming flexibility, but it can cause videos saved using basic methods to have no sound. Read why Reddit videos sometimes download without sound for a more detailed explanation.
Does RDSave work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. RDSave works through modern mobile browsers on both iPhone and Android, so you do not need to install a dedicated app.

RDSave is intended for publicly accessible Reddit content. If a post is private, deleted, restricted, or otherwise unavailable to the public, RDSave may not be able to access its media.
Does RDSave store the Reddit videos I download?
RDSave does not permanently store downloaded videos or maintain a history of the Reddit links you process. Limited technical logs may still be temporarily processed for security and normal service operation as described in the Privacy Policy.
Is downloading a Reddit video legal?
