MediaGrab puts a download button right next to the reply/like/share actions on each post on x.com (twitter.com). Click it to save the post's media:

  • Photos in original quality
  • Videos in the highest available bitrate (MP4)
  • GIFs as animated GIF and/or MP4
Everything runs locally in your browser. MediaGrab has no server, collects no data, and sends nothing to anyone. See the privacy policy for details.

Is MediaGrab Safe?

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

MediaGrab requires some sensitive permissions that could impact your browser and data security. Exercise caution before installing.

  • Medium ****** ********** ** ******** ********** *** ********* ******* ******** ****** ******** ****** ********
Risk likelihood
Risk likelihood measures the probability that a Firefox add-on may turn malicious. This is determined by the publisher and the Firefox add-on reputation on Firefox Add-ons Store, the amount of time the Firefox add-on has been around, and other signals about the Firefox add-on. Our algorithms are not perfect, and are subject to change as we discover new ways to detect malicious extensions. We recommend that you always exercise caution when installing a Firefox add-on.

MediaGrab is recently added, and hasn't been around long enough for us to gather enough data to accurately assess its risk level.
