How It Works

1

Copy the Telegram post link

Find the video in a public Telegram channel or group. Tap the 'Share' or 'Forward' arrow next to the post and select 'Copy Link'.

  • The link should look like 't.me/' followed by the channel and post ID
2

Paste the link into the downloader

Come back to NewTools and paste your copied Telegram link into the input field above. Click the download icon to fetch the video data.

  • The tool securely connects to the public post to retrieve available formats
3

Download to your device

Review the video size and format. Click the download button next to your preferred option to save the video file directly to your device.

  • The video will download as a standard MP4 file

Common Use Cases

Save Videos Outside the App

Download videos from Telegram directly to your phone's camera roll or your computer's hard drive, rather than relying on Telegram's internal app cache.

Share Content Without Telegram

Found a great video in a public channel? Download it locally so you can share the actual video file with friends who don't have the Telegram app installed.

Archive Important Updates

Many news organizations and communities share breaking updates via Telegram. Save these important video clips offline for permanent archival.

Tips & Best Practices

Public Channels Only

This tool can only access videos posted in public Telegram channels or public groups. It cannot download videos from private chats, secret chats, or private channels.

Copying the Right Link

Ensure you are copying the link to the specific post containing the video, not just the general channel link. Look for the share arrow directly attached to the video message.

App Installation Not Required

You don't need to have the Telegram app installed on your device to use this downloader. As long as you have the public t.me link, you can save the video.

Telegram Video Downloader

What the Telegram downloader supports

This tool works with public Telegram posts that contain video or image media. You can download videos (typically MP4) and images (JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF) from posts on public channels. The tool shows you what type of media was found, the file size, and the available quality before you download.

How to copy a public Telegram post link

Open Telegram on your phone or desktop. Navigate to the public channel and find the post with the media you want to save. Tap or click the post, then use the Share or Copy Link option. The link will look like https://t.me/channelname/123 — make sure you copy the complete URL including the message ID number at the end. If you only have the channel link without a message ID, the downloader will not be able to find a specific post.

Supported t.me link formats

The downloader accepts links from t.me, www.t.me, telegram.me, and www.telegram.me. Links must point to a public post with a numeric message ID. Examples of supported links include https://t.me/durov/123 and https://telegram.me/channelname/456. Links that require accepting an invite, joining a group, or signing in are not supported. Direct t.me links to channels without a specific post ID cannot be processed — you need the full post link.

Public posts, channels, and groups

Only public Telegram content is supported. A public channel is one that anyone can view without an invite link. Public group posts may also work if the group is set to public visibility and the post link is accessible without joining. Private channels, private groups, invite-only content, and direct messages are not supported. If you can view the post in a browser without logging into Telegram, there is a good chance the link will work.

Video and image output

When a public post contains a video, the downloader typically provides an MP4 file. When a post contains an image, you will receive the image in its available format — usually JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF. The downloader shows the detected media type and file size before you download, so you know what to expect. The download link is temporary and will expire — save the file to your device promptly.

Using the tool on your device

The Telegram downloader works in any modern browser. On Android, use Chrome or your preferred browser to open NewTools, paste the link, and download. On iPhone and iPad, Safari supports the tool — downloaded videos save to your Files app or Photos. On Windows and macOS, any browser works. No app installation or Telegram login is needed on any device.

Why a Telegram link may not work

Several things can prevent a link from working. The post may be from a private channel or group that is not publicly accessible. The content may have been deleted or the channel may have been made private after you copied the link. The post may contain media that Telegram restricts from public access. Invite links (t.me/+ links or t.me/joinchat links) are not supported because they require accepting an invitation. Links that redirect to a login page will also fail because the tool cannot sign in to Telegram.

Privacy and responsible use

NewTools does not permanently store your downloaded files or the links you paste. Media may be processed temporarily to prepare the download. The tool does not use a Telegram account — it accesses only content that is publicly available on the web. Download only content that you have the right to save — for example, your own content or content shared publicly for download. Respect the rights of content creators and follow the terms of the platforms you use.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I download a video from a public Telegram post?

Yes. Copy the link to a public Telegram post that contains a video, paste it into the downloader, and click check. If the video is publicly accessible, a download option will appear with the file type, quality, and size.

Are private Telegram channels or groups supported?

No. This tool only works with public Telegram posts. Private channels, private groups, invite-only content, and direct messages are not supported. If you need an invite link to access a channel, its posts cannot be downloaded with this tool.

Why does my t.me link not work?

The most common reasons are: the post is from a private channel or group, the content has been deleted, the link is an invite link (t.me/joinchat or t.me/+), the link does not include a message ID number, or the media is restricted from public access by Telegram. Make sure the link points to a specific public post and that you can view it in a browser without logging in.

Can I download images from Telegram?

Yes. When you paste a link to a public Telegram post that contains an image, the downloader will detect the image and provide a download option. Images are typically downloaded in the format available from the post — usually JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF.

Do I need a Telegram account or login to use this tool?

No. The Telegram downloader works without a Telegram account, login, or app. It only accesses content that is already publicly available on the web — the same content anyone can see by opening the t.me link in a browser.

Can deleted Telegram posts be downloaded?

No. If a post has been deleted by the channel owner or by Telegram, the link will no longer work. The downloader can only access posts that are currently available and publicly visible.

What file format will the downloaded video be?

Videos from public Telegram posts are typically provided as MP4 files. Images are downloaded in the format available from the post — usually JPG, PNG, WebP, or GIF. The downloader shows the file type and size before you download.

Does this downloader work on mobile phones?

Yes. The tool works in mobile browsers on Android and iPhone. Paste a t.me link, check for available media, and download directly to your device. No app installation is needed.

Can I download multiple media items from one post?

If a public Telegram post contains multiple media items, the results page will show the items the service can extract from the post. You can choose which available media file to download.
