Bluesky (or Bsky) has officially entered its "video era." Since the platform expanded video upload limits and introduced its vertical video "Trending" feed, the amount of high-quality creative content has exploded. From digital artists sharing process timelapses to breaking news clips and viral memes, Bluesky is now a major hub for visual storytelling.
However, there remains one significant hurdle for users: Bluesky does not have a native "Save Video" button.
Whether you want to archive an important tutorial, share a funny clip on WhatsApp, or keep a reference for your own creative projects, "liking" or "bookmarking" the post isn't enough. You need the raw file on your device. In this guide, we will show you exactly how to download Bluesky videos in High Definition (HD) across every device using bskyviddownloader.com.
Why You Shouldn't Use Screen Recording
Many users resort to screen recording to save Bluesky videos. While it works in a pinch, it’s the worst way to archive media for several reasons:
- Quality Loss: Screen recording captures your screen's resolution, not the original raw video file.
- UI Clutter: You often end up with "Like" and "Share" buttons covering the content.
- No Audio Control: It’s difficult to capture clean audio without background notifications.
By using a dedicated downloader, you fetch the original raw MP4 file directly from Bluesky’s servers, ensuring 100% quality with no watermarks.

Beyond Basics: Advanced Features
While basic downloading is great, we have built specialized tools for power users and creators.
1. Industry-First: Batch Profile Downloader
Are you a fan of a specific digital artist? You no longer have to save their videos one by one. With our Batch Download (Profile) feature, you can paste a profile link and save up to 500 videos at once in a neat ZIP archive.
2. Batch Download Multiple Links
If you have a curated list of specific posts, our Batch Download (Links) tool is the perfect solution. Simply paste multiple Bluesky URLs, and our engine will process them all simultaneously.
3. Exclusive: In-Browser Video Trim/Clip Editor
Sometimes you only need a 5-second clip of a 3-minute video. Instead of downloading the whole file, you can Trim and Clip the video directly in your browser before you hit download. This is a unique feature only available on our platform.
4. Privacy-First Download History
We respect your privacy. Unlike other platforms, our Download History feature uses browser localStorage. This means your history stays 100% on your device—we never store logs of what you save.
Conclusion: The Best Tool for the Bluesky Community
As Bluesky continues to grow, having a reliable way to save and share media is essential. Stop settling for low-quality screen recordings. Get the original HD quality you deserve, use our batch tools for bulk saving, and keep your data safe.
