How to download Twitter GIFs as MP4
Updated 2026-10-11
Twitter GIFs are often delivered as MP4. TwitterView saves that high-quality MP4 on the web and in the apps with no X login.
Why MP4?
X serves animated GIFs as MP4 for better size and quality than classic .gif files.
Steps
Copy a public tweet that contains a GIF, paste it into TwitterView, press Download, and save the GIF (MP4) item.
Playback and use
The MP4 usually loops in common players. Keep it for personal offline use only.
Frequently asked questions
Do I get a .gif file?
No. You get the MP4 X serves; the motion matches the original animation.
Does looping still work?
Yes. Original motion is preserved and can usually be looped.
Private GIFs?
