About RedGifs Video Downloader
Right-clicking RedGifs clips gets you nowhere. This browser extension adds a download button directly on every RedGifs video. Click it, pick your quality, and the clip saves as a standard MP4 to your computer. No sketchy download sites, no pasting URLs into random converters, no installing desktop software. It works on individual clips, entire feed pages, and embedded RedGifs players across the web.
The extension grabs the best available quality automatically and handles both short clips and longer videos. On feed pages, it detects every visible clip so you can save multiple files without opening each one individually.
Downloads happen locally in your browser, nothing gets uploaded anywhere, and files are neatly organized in a RedGifs folder. Try 3 free downloads to see for yourself, no credit card needed.

Happy Users
Recent customer feedback
Short, practical feedback from people using RedGifs Video Downloader in real workflows.
Original quality preservation is spot on
The GIF quality preservation is outstanding. I was losing detail with screen-capture tools, but this extension pulls the original MP4 source directly from the RedGifs API. Batch downloading from feed pages through the side panel saves a huge amount of time when saving an entire collection.

Reliable RedGifs downloads at last
Finally something that actually works with RedGifs consistently. The in-page download button appears right on the player and the feed scanning picks up every clip on the page. Saved about 40 clips from a creator's profile in one session. Files auto-sort into the RedGifs folder which keeps things tidy.

API-direct approach makes the difference
I like that it connects to the RedGifs API directly instead of guessing sources from the page HTML. The quality selector always shows the best option first, and the HLS-to-MP4 conversion is seamless when a direct download is not available. Downloading collections for offline browsing has never been this easy.
