Lemon8 photo and video downloader

- No sign-up
- No ads, no pop-ups
- We don't store your files
How it works
Copy the link to a public post, clip or video — the copy guide below shows exactly where the button is on each platform.
Paste it into the box above and press Parse.
Pick the file you need in the results and save it to your device.
How to copy a link
Each platform hides its share button in a different place. Pick yours below.
Open the post in the Lemon8 app. The website renders entirely in JavaScript, so copying from a phone is the reliable path.
Tap the share arrow at the top right → Copy link.
The URL looks like lemon8-app.com/@username/7000… and must keep its ?region= parameter.
Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
Yes. There is no account, no trial and no paywall. The site runs without ads for now, and we will keep the first screen free of them when that changes.
Do you store the videos or photos?
No. Media is streamed through our server on the way to your device and is not saved. The only exception is the temporary MP4 created while converting a streaming video, which is deleted within fifteen minutes.
Why is a long Kick VOD limited to five minutes?
Converting and delivering a full multi-hour stream costs real bandwidth and disk. A five-minute cap keeps the tool free and fast for everyone. Clips are never capped.
Does it work on iPhone and Android?
Yes. Everything runs in the browser. On iOS the file is saved through the download prompt instead of the camera roll, because Safari does not allow a website to write there directly.
Why does a link sometimes fail?
Public posts can be deleted, made private, or region-locked by the platform. If a link fails, open it in a browser first: if you cannot see it there, no downloader can retrieve it either.
Is this legal?
We only fetch files that are already publicly available, and we never bypass a login. Reusing someone else's work can still require permission: check the platform terms and the creator's wishes before reposting.
