02
Drop it here
Paste the video link above. We’ll get your download ready.
03
Keep the moment
Preview your video, hit Download MP4, and you’re all set.
START WITH THE RIGHT LINK
Weibo video posts and mobile links
Copy the permalink to a Weibo post containing video. A mobile status link is useful because it points to the individual post rather than a timeline.
Open the post containing the video before copying its address. A post made up only of images has no compatible video to save here. A forwarded post may refer to media belonging to the original post, whose availability still matters. The result is one available MP4, rather than an export of all media in the thread.
| Page type | URL or starting point | What to check |
|---|---|---|
| Mobile post | https://m.weibo.cn/status/POST_ID | A post with playable video. |
Find the original media on Weibo, then copy the individual item’s link.
KNOW WHAT YOU ARE SAVING
Weibo downloads: format, quality and watermarks
A compatible MP4
Compatible video and audio tracks are packaged into an MP4 when available. The file does not include the surrounding post, comments or website interface. Still images are not converted into videos.
Source quality, not upscaling
Resolution depends on the versions the source provides. IOdown does not turn a low-resolution upload into HD or 4K. Missing or muted source audio cannot be recreated by downloading it.
No IOdown watermark added
The tool does not add its own branding to the file. Logos, captions and watermarks already embedded in the source remain. Downloading is different from editing or removing a watermark.
FROM THE BROWSER TO YOUR DEVICE
Save Weibo videos on your phone or computer
Keep this page open until processing finishes. Preview the result, then choose Download MP4 before the expiry time shown next to the file.
iPhone or iPad
Use your browser’s download action when the file opens. Check the browser’s downloads list and the Files app. If the share menu offers Save Video for a compatible video, you can also save it to Photos. Audio-only MP4 files belong in Files or an audio player.
Android
Confirm the browser’s download prompt, then check Downloads in your file manager. A saved video may also appear in your gallery. If it only opens in a player, use the browser or player menu to save the file.
Windows or Mac
Choose Download MP4 and use the browser’s download list to locate the file. If a player opens instead, use its save action. Keep the .mp4 extension and open the result in a compatible media player.
WHEN A LINK DOES NOT WORK
Weibo download troubleshooting
Start with this Weibo check
If a forwarded post no longer plays, check the original post. Deleted or restricted original media cannot be recovered by downloading the forwarding page.
- The link is rejected
- Use the full HTTPS page URL for one media item. Remove surrounding share-message text, but keep the media ID and any required query parameters. A profile, search page or direct file link is not the same as a media page.
- The source refuses access
- A public page can still be restricted by region, login requirements or server access checks. Your browser session is not shared with IOdown. Follow the specific error shown instead of repeatedly submitting the same link.
- Processing takes longer than expected
- Check whether progress is still moving. Long recordings and slow source hosts take more time. If the service asks you to wait because it is busy, wait before creating another request.
- The download link expired
- Prepared files are temporary. Submit the original media-page link again to request a new copy, provided the source is still accessible. The expiry shown with the result is the time to follow.

GOOD TO KNOW
Weibo downloader FAQ
Answers about links, files and availability.
How do I download from Weibo?
Copy the full HTTPS page URL for an individual item on Weibo. Use the original media page rather than a search, profile, or collection page. Paste the link above, select Get video, then save the available MP4 file once processing finishes.
Which Weibo links does IOdown support?
Copy the full HTTPS page URL for an individual item on Weibo. Use the original media page rather than a search, profile, or collection page. IOdown processes one item at a time when the source exposes a compatible MP4 or M4A stream. Bulk collections, live streams, DRM-protected media, and sign-in-only content are not supported.
Why is my Weibo download unavailable?
The Weibo item may have been deleted, made private, restricted by region, or protected by a login or DRM. Changes on Weibo can also break extraction. A listing is not a guarantee that a particular URL works.
Can I download Weibo videos as MP4 without an app?
You can request an available MP4 in your browser without installing an app or creating an IOdown account. Quality, audio, and watermarks depend on the source. This tool does not remove DRM, bypass access controls, or guarantee a particular resolution.
Can I save an entire Weibo playlist or live stream?
No. Paste an individual, completed media item from Weibo. Each request saves at most one file and is subject to file-size and server-capacity limits.
How long can I save my Weibo download?
The file is temporarily stored and normally removed 15 minutes after processing finishes. Check the expiry shown next to the download and save it before that time. Only download content you own or have permission to save.
What is the file size limit for Weibo downloads?
Each file is limited to 10 GiB. There is no overall download time limit. Availability depends on the source and the media format.
