Step by step

  1. 1

    Copy the post’s link

    Copy the post’s address, or right-click the video and copy its link. i.imgur.com/….gifv links work.

  2. 2

    Paste it into FetchBolt

    Open the Imgur downloader and paste the link into the box.

  3. 3

    Download the MP4

    Tap Download. In posts with several videos, each one is listed separately.

What a GIFV really is

Imgur’s GIFV format is an MP4 video, smaller and sharper than a GIF. FetchBolt saves it as that MP4, with sound when the animation has it.

Image posts

Only videos and animations are downloaded; for still images, save them from your browser.

The tool for the job

Everything above uses the Imgur Video Downloader. MP4 in the original quality. Animations with sound keep it.

Questions

Will it loop like a GIF?

Most players and gallery apps loop short MP4s just like GIFs.

Do I need an Imgur account?

No. Public posts download without signing in.

Is it free?

Yes, with no sign-up.
