Twitter is one of the most popular social media platforms where people engage and interact through tweets. In this discussion, I will be explaining how to download videos and animations from Twitter.
Up till now, the Twitter platform only allows users to download images attached to tweets, but not videos and animations. However, it is not like it is impossible to download files in those formats from Twitter.
I think Twitter must have restricted its users from downloading those files just to limit the way it spread across the internet and to give the original uploader control over his property.
As a result, if you are going to download videos from Twitter using my methods, I will implore you to use the videos downloaded for genuine purposes.
