How to Download Twitter Videos on Your iPhone, Android Smartphone

Twitter may not be designed for videos, but it’s still a surprisingly good source for interesting clips. So good, in fact, that you’ll want to share lots of them so everyone can share in the fun. Unfortunately, while Twitter allows you to save photos with just a few clicks, with videos it’s a different story. None of the Twitter apps or even the desktop site currently support video downloads. But as is the case with everything, there are solutions. With the use of third-party apps, users can save Twitter videos to their devices. And the best part? It is much easier than you expect.
