Vimeo has a huge repository of some great videos, and the good thing is you can download these videos to your devices for offline use. We’ll show you exactly how to save Vimeo videos on your desktop and mobile devices.

What to Know Before Downloading Vimeo Videos

Keep in mind that, at least on desktop (Windows, Mac, Linux, or Chromebook), you can’t download all the videos available on Vimeo. Only the videos that are uploaded by paid Vimeo users can be downloaded. This means, if someone has uploaded a video from their free Vimeo account, you can’t download that video. Vimeo’s mobile app (iPhone, iPad, or Android), however, will download any video from the site; it doesn’t have to come from a paid Vimeo user.

Another difference is that if you download a video on a desktop, you get a video file. On the other hand, if you download a video on mobile, you don’t get a video file. Instead, your video is saved in the Vimeo app, and you must use the app to access the saved videos, similar to downloading music on Spotify.

How to Download Vimeo Videos on Desktop

Scroll down the page and, beneath the video title, click the small “Download” button.

Click "Download" for a video on the Vimeo site.

You’ll see a “Download” window. Here, select the quality in which you want to download your video. Then, next to that quality option, click “Download.”
