Sites tested with the general downloader
A public link from each of these sites returned a downloadable video file when tested in November 2026. They go through the general downloader, so when a page lists several files the first one is normally the video you want. Sites change, so a link can still fail; paste it to find out.

If you paste a link from one of these today, PixHold tells you it is not supported yet instead of failing silently.
Not supported
Private or login-only content
PixHold reads pages the way a signed-out visitor does. Private posts, friends-only posts and members-only pages are out of reach.
Paid and DRM-protected video
Subscription streaming services, rentals and paid courses protect their video. PixHold does not bypass protection.
Live and chunked streams
Live streams and players that load video in small pieces (HLS or DASH) have no single file to hand over.
How to check a site yourself
- Open the page of one single video, not a feed, channel or search result, and copy its address.
- Paste it into the download video from link box and press Download.
- If PixHold lists one or more files, the site works for that kind of post. If it says no downloadable video was found, the site streams its video in a way that cannot be saved as a file.

Questions about supported sites
Which sites can PixHold download from?
TikTok, Snapchat and Tumblr have dedicated downloaders. PixHold also works with direct links to video files and with web pages that serve their video as a regular MP4, WebM or MOV file.
How do I know whether a site works?
Paste a link from it. PixHold answers within a few seconds, either with download buttons or with a message that says why nothing was found. Trying a link is free and does not need an account.
When will YouTube, Instagram, Facebook and X be supported?
They are planned, but there is no date yet. These platforms do not expose a plain video file in the page, so each needs its own download method.
Why does the same site work for one video and not for another?
Sites often store older and newer uploads differently, or stream long videos in chunks while short ones are single files. Private, age-restricted or region-locked posts also fail even when public posts from the same site work.
Can I ask for a site to be added?
Yes. Send the name of the site and an example link to the contact address on this page. Requests help decide which platform gets a dedicated downloader next.
