How to download Vimeo videos
The steps differ slightly between the Vimeo app on a phone and the website on a computer, so both are below.
On iPhone or Android
- 1
Open the video in the Vimeo app or a browser
It needs to be a public video — one that plays without a password or a sign-in.
- 2
Tap Share, then copy the link
This gives a vimeo.com URL ending in the numeric video id.
- 3
Paste it here
Available resolutions are listed highest first.
On a computer
- 1
Open the video on vimeo.com
Go to the video's own page so the URL is vimeo.com followed by its numeric id.
- 2
Copy the address bar URL
Player embed URLs on other sites also resolve where the video itself is public.
- 3
Paste and choose a resolution
Take the highest rendition, or extract the audio as MP3.
What the Vimeo downloader handles
Up to 4K where it exists
Vimeo encodes high-resolution renditions when the source supports it, and all of them are listed.
High bitrate preserved
Vimeo's encodes are less aggressively compressed than most social platforms, and the file is passed through rather than re-encoded.
Audio as MP3
Extract the soundtrack when you only need the audio — useful for talks and interviews.
Embed links resolve
A player URL from a site that embeds the video works, provided the video itself is public.
Public videos only
Password-protected, private-link and domain-restricted videos are deliberately not public and are not attempted.
Respect the licence
Much of Vimeo is professional work under explicit copyright. Downloading does not grant you rights to reuse it.
The free Vimeo video downloader that just works
Vimeo is where people put work they care about the look of, and it encodes accordingly — higher bitrates than most social platforms, and often a 2K or 4K rendition where the source justified it. This downloader lists the renditions Vimeo actually produced for a given video so you can take the top one rather than a screen-sized copy.
Vimeo also gives creators real control over distribution, and that control is meaningful here. Password-protected videos, private links and domain-restricted embeds are deliberate choices by the person who uploaded them, and none of them are publicly served. Only videos that play for a signed-out visitor can be fetched.
Our Vimeo video downloader saves public Vimeo videos as HD MP4 files at the resolution you choose, up to 4K, or extracts the audio as MP3. Paste the video link and download — no app, no account and no watermark.

Vimeo downloader — questions
Can I download Vimeo videos in 4K?
Yes, when the source offers it — we always fetch the highest available resolution.
Can I download a password-protected Vimeo video?
No. A password is the uploader restricting who may watch, and the video is not publicly served as a result. The same applies to private-link and domain-restricted videos. Only videos that play for a signed-out visitor can be fetched.
What resolutions are available?
Whatever Vimeo encoded for that specific upload, listed highest first — commonly up to 1080p, and 2K or 4K when the creator uploaded a source that justified it. There is no higher master to request beyond what Vimeo produced.
Why does Vimeo look better than the same video elsewhere?
Vimeo compresses less aggressively than most social platforms, so its encodes hold more detail at the same resolution. Since the file is passed through rather than re-encoded, that quality survives the download.
Can I use a Vimeo video I downloaded in my own project?
Downloading a file and having the right to reuse it are separate things. A great deal of Vimeo is professional work under full copyright, so you would need permission or an appropriate licence from the creator regardless of how you obtained the file.
Does an embedded player link work?
Yes, where the underlying video is public. Embed URLs resolve to the same video, so you can paste the player link from a site that has embedded it.
