Question 1

Is RDsnap free?

Accepted Answer

Yes — completely free with no signup, no watermark, and no daily limit. Ads help keep the service running.

Question 2

Can I download Reddit videos with sound?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Reddit stores video and audio separately; we automatically merge them so your downloaded MP4 always has audio when the original does.

Question 3

What resolutions are available?

Accepted Answer

Whatever Reddit hosts for that post — typically 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p and 240p, plus the audio-only track.

Question 4

Does RDsnap work on iPhone and Android?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It runs in any modern mobile browser. On iPhone, use Safari; on Android any browser works.

Question 5

Why did my download fail?

Accepted Answer

The post might be deleted, NSFW-gated, from a private/quarantined subreddit, or hosted on an external site (Imgur, YouTube). Open the post first to check it's still public.

Question 6

Do you store the videos I download?

Accepted Answer

No. Files stream through your browser and are never persisted on our servers.

Question 7

Is it legal to download from Reddit?

Accepted Answer

Downloading for personal, non-commercial use is generally acceptable. Redistribution or commercial use may infringe copyright. Always respect creators.

Question 8

How do I download a Reddit gallery?

Accepted Answer

Paste the gallery URL. We'll list every image in the gallery so you can save them individually or all at once.

Question 9

Can I download GIFs as MP4?

Accepted Answer

Yes. When Reddit provides both formats, you'll see MP4 and GIF variants — MP4 is smaller and plays anywhere.

Question 10

Does the download button work on mobile Safari?

Accepted Answer

Yes. On iOS the file is saved to Files → Downloads by default. On Android, it goes to your Downloads folder.
