Bluesky Video Downloader
Paste a bsky.app post link and save its public video as an MP4 file.
Quick answer
Bluesky Video Downloader saves public videos attached to Bluesky posts as MP4 files. Bluesky uploads clips as standard MP4 attachments, so a post URL usually resolves to a single file rather than an adaptive stream. Paste the post link and the tool returns the clip without asking for a Bluesky handle or password. Only posts visible to logged-out visitors are handled. Finished files stay available for two hours, then are deleted automatically.

Frequently asked questions
Can it download videos from private or followers-only accounts?
No. The post has to be visible without logging in. If Bluesky asks you to sign in to view it, the downloader cannot reach it either.
Does the saved file keep the original quality and audio?
Yes. Bluesky stores a single MP4 per upload, so the tool returns that file as-is, audio included, with no re-encoding.
Do at:// links work as well as normal post URLs?
Both forms are accepted. A regular bsky.app post link is the simplest, but the underlying AT-URI record link resolves to the same video.
Why would a Bluesky link fail?
The usual causes are a deleted post, a blocked or muted account, or media carrying an age or content label that hides it from logged-out viewers.
