How to Copy a Reddit Video Link

A short guide for getting the right Reddit link before you try to download anything.

Published 2026-04-28

Quick Answer

Open the exact Reddit video, use the share or copy-link option, and make sure the URL points to one supported public video.

1. Open the exact Reddit video first

  1. Open the Reddit video you actually want to save.
  2. Avoid copying the profile page or search feed URL.
  3. Stay on the single video page before using Share.

2. Use Share to copy the public link

Tap or click Share, then use the copy-link option. That usually gives you the public URL Snapvie needs instead of a temporary in-app path.

3. Check that the link still points to the video

If the copied URL opens the video when you paste it into a browser tab, you have the right kind of link. If it drops you onto a profile or a blank page, copy it again from the video screen.

If the copied link still fails later

Refresh the Reddit page, copy the public link again, and make sure the video is still public. Old or altered links are one of the most common reasons a Reddit download fails.

Can I copy the link from the Reddit app?

Yes. That is usually the easiest way, as long as you are on the actual video page.

Why should I avoid profile links?

Because Snapvie needs the public single-video URL, not a profile or feed path.

Do short redirect links still work?

Redirect links may work when the backend can resolve them, but the direct supported public Reddit video URL is safest.

What should I do after copying the link?

Paste it into the main Reddit page, the browser page, or the device-specific page that matches what you want next.
