Vimeo hosts high-quality videos from creators worldwide, but downloading them isn’t always straightforward. Whether you need to save your own content or download videos (with permission), this guide covers all working methods in 2024.

Official Vimeo Download Options

1. Downloading Your Own Videos

Vimeo creators can download their original files:

  1. Go to your Video Manager
  2. Select the video
  3. Click “Download” (available if original file was preserved)
  4. Choose preferred quality

Note: Basic accounts keep originals for 30 days, Plus/PRO accounts indefinitely

2. Downloading Others’ Videos (With Permission)

For videos you don’t own:

  1. Look for the download button below the video (if enabled by creator)
  2. Some creators offer downloads for purchase or with password
  3. Always respect copyright and ask permission first
