User reviews

Twitter Media Assist is praised for its easy and efficient media downloading capabilities from Twitter, including videos and GIFs, working well on Chrome and Edge. However, multiple users report frequent breakages following Twitter updates, such as disappearance of download buttons and partial GIF downloads. Some experience file renaming issues and limited usage constraints. Users value prompt updates restoring functionality but highlight the need for ongoing maintenance due to platform changes.

Sadly has stopped working since yesterday. Hopefully it gets updated since this is one of the only downloaders that isn't adware, doesn't have some up-your-nose looking button, very quick and convenient to use especially with the username-url_id naming system and it actually downloads the highest image/video quality.
