How to Download Twitter Videos: When Twitter launched in 2006, it offered users a new way of sharing the world around them in text-based tweets of up to 140 characters. Today, tweets can consist of up to 240 characters, and users can upload photos and videos directly to the platform.
With the vast amount of content that is now shared on Twitter, however, you may find yourself wanting to save some of it for later. And although you simply right-click and save a photo, saving a video takes a few extra steps.
