YTD Video Downloader is one of the oldest and most recognizable pieces of desktop software for saving online media. For many people, the classic green YTD icon was their first introduction to video downloading in the late 2000s.
Because it has been installed on millions of PCs, many users default to using the YTD Facebook Video Downloader feature when they need to save a clip from their newsfeed.
YTD has aged poorly and heavily restricts its users to push them toward paid subscriptions:
- Aggressive Throttling: The free version of YTD artificially throttles your download speed. Even if you have a gigabit internet connection, YTD will force the download to crawl at a fraction of the speed unless you buy 'YTD Pro'.
- Paywalled Conversions: If you want to convert a Facebook video to MP3, the free version often blocks you or places strict limits on the length of the audio.
- Dated Desktop Dependency: Like all older software, it provides zero utility if you are browsing Facebook on your mobile device.
You should never have your download speeds artificially choked. FB Downlo is the modern, totally free alternative to YTD.

Whether you are downloading a 5-second Reel or a 2-hour 4K Facebook Live broadcast, FB Downlo utilizes the maximum bandwidth your connection allows. Furthermore, our Facebook to MP3 conversion is completely free and unlimited, directly within your browser.
