What this tool does

9GAG Video/GIF Downloader saves a public video or GIF post from 9GAG to your device, so you can watch it offline. Paste a post link, pick a quality, and download -- no account, no browser extension, and no 9GAG login required.

How It Works

When you paste a link, the server resolves the post's available formats using yt-dlp, an open-source media resolver, and lists the qualities available without logging in. When you press Download, the server fetches that stream and relays it straight back to your browser as a download -- it is deleted from the server the moment it finishes sending.

Problems it solves

How to Download

  1. 1 Copy the post link -- open the post on 9GAG and copy its link from the address bar or the Share button.
  2. 2 Paste and fetch -- paste the link and press Fetch Post to load its title and available qualities.
  3. 3 Pick a quality -- choose a resolution from the list.
  4. 4 Save the file -- press Download and follow your browser's prompt.

Key Features

Limitations & Availability

  • Deleted or removed posts are not reachable, even if a link to them still circulates.
  • Age-restricted or NSFW-gated posts may not resolve the same way as regular posts.
  • A generated download link expires -- fetch the post again if it stops working.

Troubleshooting

›Fetching fails even for a public post

9GAG can rate-limit automated requests -- reopen the post on 9gag.com to confirm it still plays, then try again after a short wait.

›Link points to a text or image post instead of a video/GIF

Make sure the link opens a video or animated GIF post directly -- a text-only or static-image post has no media for this tool to fetch.

›Only one quality option appears

This is normal -- many 9GAG posts are only stored at one resolution to begin with.

›Download fails

Try again after a short wait, or fetch the post again to refresh the link.

Frequently asked questions

›Is this legal?

It depends on the post and your local law. This tool only retrieves the same public post 9GAG already sends to any browser that loads a public post page -- it does not unlock deleted or removed content. 9GAG's own terms technically restrict third-party downloading, though enforcement against personal, occasional use is weak and there is a large market of similar tools. You should still respect the original poster's rights, especially for anything you plan to reuse or republish.

›Why did fetching fail for my link?

The post may be deleted, removed, age-restricted, or 9GAG may be rate-limiting automated requests at that moment. Reopen the post on 9gag.com, confirm it still plays there, copy the link again, and try once more after a short wait.

›Does this work for animated GIF posts?

Yes. GIF posts on 9GAG are actually served as short muted videos behind the scenes, and this tool resolves them the same way it resolves a regular video post.

›Can I download someone's comment GIF instead of the main post?

No, only the main post itself. Paste the post's own link, not a link to a specific comment.

›Why do some 9GAG posts only offer one quality?

9GAG doesn't generate a full set of resolutions for every upload -- many posts, especially older or short ones, are only stored at a single size to begin with.

Respecting Creators

9GAG posters build a following through upvotes and comments on the platform itself, and some earn through 9GAG's creator payout program. Save posts for personal use or reference, credit the original poster if you repost anything, and avoid passing off someone else's content as your own.
