How Our Vimeo Video Downloader Works
Our Vimeo downloader makes saving videos from Vimeo for offline viewing an absolute cinch. The tool couldn't be easier to use - follow these three simple steps:
Copy the Vimeo Video URL
First, navigate to the Vimeo video page of the clip you want to download. Copy its URL from your browser's address bar. Typically, the URL looks like this format: https://vimeo.com/123456789
Where the numbers are the unique ID of the video, this URL is important because it tells our downloader exactly which Vimeo video you want to save.
To copy the URL, highlight it in your browser's address bar and press Ctrl+C on Windows/Linux or Cmd+C on Mac. This copies the link text so we can paste it in step 2. Alternatively, you can right click the address bar and select copy from the context menu if you prefer.
Have we got the Vimeo video page URL copied? Great - let's move on pasting it into our downloader tool!
Paste Video URL and Select Quality
Go to our Vimeo Downloader site and paste the copied Vimeo video URL into the input field using Ctrl+V or Cmd+V. Or you can right click the input box and pick "Paste" too - whatever way you prefer to paste copied text.
As soon as you paste a valid Vimeo link into our tool, the Download button will become clickable.
Next, choose the quality you want to download the Vimeo video file. We support downloading the original source quality up to crystal clear 1080p High Definition. Select the resolution that best fits your needs. Higher quality videos come in larger file sizes, so keep in mind where you plan to store and watch the video offline later when picking quality.
Once you decide on video quality, the last required step is to initiate the download.
Download Vimeo Video
Finally, click or tap the Download button in our Vimeo downloading tool interface. This will instantly trigger our high-speed servers to grab your desired Vimeo video file for offline usage.
A window will appear showing the video download progress. Depending on the runtime and quality selected, downloads usually complete quickly, thanks to our optimized infrastructure.
Once finished, you'll be presented with the downloaded Vimeo video file and options to open the folder it saved to or close the downloader program.
And that's it! By following those 3 quick and easy steps, you can leverage our tool to effortlessly save just about any Vimeo video for watching offline anytime. Give it a try - in mere minutes, you'll be building an offline library of your favourite Vimeo content!
