Quick download method: Copy the share link from a public RedNote video note and paste it into the online tool below. Choose 720p to use the daily free allowance, or sign in as a Pro member for source-available 1080p. When processing finishes, check the resolution and download the file to your device.
RedNote video links may also use the names Xiaohongshu or XHS. VidKite accepts supported xhslink.com and xhslink.cn short links as well as full video-note addresses. You can paste the surrounding share caption and emoji with the link.
How to download a RedNote video online
- Open the individual video note in the RedNote or Xiaohongshu app. Use a video post rather than a profile, image-only note, or search page.
- Tap Share, then Copy link. Keep the full share message if that is what the app copies.
- Open the RedNote online video downloader in your browser and paste the message into the link field.
- Choose 720p for your daily free allowance, or sign in as a Pro member and select 1080p.
- Select Start Download and wait for processing to finish. Check the actual resolution in the result.
- Use the result download button to save the video file. On a phone, follow the Photos or gallery steps below if you want it in your camera roll.
Start with a public video you own or have permission to save. If a share message contains several links, paste only the intended video link to avoid selecting the wrong post.
Free 720p or 1080p: which should you choose?
- For a quick free save: Choose 720p and check the remaining daily allowance shown on the page. This is useful for a first download and everyday phone viewing.
- For more detail: Sign in as a Pro member for 1080p when RedNote provides that rendition. Check the membership duration, price, and online task limits before purchasing.
- For several videos: Try VidKite Pro free on Windows or Mac for batch tasks, a chosen destination folder, best available source quality, and iPhone-compatible output.
Choosing 1080p does not guarantee that every post has a 1080p source. A vertical Full HD video commonly measures 1080 × 1920, while landscape Full HD commonly measures 1920 × 1080. Read the actual dimensions in the result or file properties; enlarging a 720p source cannot recreate missing detail.
Save a RedNote video to iPhone Photos
- In Safari, wait for VidKite to finish processing the video, then tap the result download button.
- Choose Save to Photos in the save dialog. Wait while the video file is prepared; if prompted, tap again to open the system menu.
- Choose Save Video in the iPhone sharing menu.
- Open Photos and play the saved video to check the picture and sound.
The website can confirm that it handed the file to iOS, but it cannot inspect your Photos library or confirm which destination you selected. If you cancel the system menu, you can try again without reprocessing the link.
If file sharing is unavailable, or the video is over 100 MB, choose Download file instead. Open the finished video in Files, tap Share, then Save Video if iOS offers it. Menu names and available actions depend on your browser, iOS version, and the video format.
If Photos does not accept the file format, try iPhone-compatible output in the desktop app, then transfer the completed video to your phone. Download temporary results before they expire.
Save a RedNote video on Android or a computer
Android: Open the browser download list or your file manager and locate the finished video. It may appear automatically in your gallery. If it does not, open it from the file manager or move it into a video folder; menu names vary between phones.
Windows or Mac: Download the result from your browser and open it from your Downloads folder, or the location chosen by your browser. For repeated downloads, the desktop app lets you set a fixed local or cloud-synced destination.
What does “without watermark” mean?
For supported RedNote videos, VidKite saves a media version without the platform branding and account watermark automatically added by the platform. A subtitle, sticker, username, or custom logo edited into the original frames remains part of the video. The downloader does not crop or blur those elements, and it cannot restore detail missing from the available source.
Common questions
Can I download RedNote videos without installing an app?
Yes. Use the online tool in a phone or computer browser with a supported public video-note link. The daily free allowance covers 720p; 1080p requires a signed-in Pro membership.
Do I need to remove Chinese text from the share message?
No. You can paste the full message with its caption and emoji. If the message contains more than one link, use the specific video link you want to save.
Why does a RedNote link return no video?
Check that it points to a video note, not an image-only post or profile. Open the original post and copy a fresh share link. Deleted posts and content that is not publicly accessible may not be available to the online tool.
Does a larger file always mean better quality?
No. Duration, codec, and bitrate also affect file size. Check the reported dimensions and view the video at an appropriate size instead of judging quality only by megabytes.
Can I download on a computer and move the video to my phone?
Yes. Save the desktop output to a cloud-synced folder, wait for synchronization, then download the file on your phone and save it to Photos or your gallery. Download VidKite Pro for a free desktop trial if you need batches or iPhone-compatible output.
