What is a Snapchat downloader?

Snapchat downloader
A Snapchat downloader is a tool that saves public Snapchat Spotlight clips, public Stories, and Lens demo videos as local files. MediaGrabber's Snapchat downloader exports vertical MP4 at the source's native resolution (typically 1080×1920) or extracts MP3 audio. Private snaps remain inaccessible by design.

Quick answers

How do I download a Snapchat Spotlight video?

Open the Spotlight clip on snapchat.com or in the app, tap Share, and pick Copy Link. Paste the URL into MediaGrabber. Spotlight videos return as vertical MP4 in the original resolution Snapchat hosts. Captions burned into the video stay; MediaGrabber doesn't re-render. The download starts immediately and saves to your device.

Can I download a private Snapchat story sent to me?

No. Private snaps and friends-only Stories are encrypted between you and the sender and are designed to disappear. MediaGrabber only supports content that Snapchat exposes publicly — Spotlight, public profile Stories, and shared Lens videos. Screen-recording your own device is the path for private content, but consider the sender's expectations first.

What resolution do Snapchat downloads come in?

Snapchat encodes Spotlight at 1080×1920 for newer uploads and 720×1280 for older clips, both vertical. MediaGrabber pulls whatever the source serves without re-encoding, so quality matches what you see on the app. Frame rate is typically 30 fps. There's no "HD upgrade" — if the source is 720p, that's the ceiling.
