Private Facebook videos are posts with restricted visibility, so they don’t appear to everyone and cannot be watched without the right permissions. Access is usually limited by the uploader’s audience settings or by the private group where the video is posted. If you can open and play the video while logged in, you can download it to your computer using 4K Video Downloader Plus. Follow the simple steps below to download a private Facebook video in the highest available quality.

1. Install the app. Download 4K Video Downloader Plus and install it on your computer. It’s available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
