Step 1: Copy the Tweet Link

Tap the share icon (arrow) at the bottom right of the tweet to open the share menu.

Then tap Copy link 👇

Step 2: Parse the Video

After copying the link, make sure your VPN is turned off.

Then open the TwitterXZ App:

1. Tap Twitter
2. Tap Paste & Parse

Step 3: Download

When you tap Download, a 30–60 second ad will play first.

After the ad finishes, you'll be prompted to enable your VPN.

Note:

• Turning on your VPN can speed up the download (recommended)
• If your VPN is already on and you still see the prompt, tap "Skip & Download Directly"

Download Complete

Once saved, you'll find the video in your phone's Photos app or Camera Roll.

It may also appear under the Videos section in your gallery.

Pro Tip

For the smoothest experience, tap an ad on the home screen before you start parsing.

After the ad plays, you'll have a 10-minute ad-free window for downloads.

FAQ

What is a VPN?

A VPN (Virtual Private Network) is a tool that lets you browse the internet more securely and freely.

Why can't I see the Twitter option in the app?

Check whether your VPN is turned on:

1. If it is, turn it off
2. Then restart the app

Still not showing? Tap an ad, wait for it to finish, then restart the app.

If nothing works, reach out using the contact info at the bottom of this page.

Why does the ad fail to play?

This is usually because your VPN is still on.

Please turn off your VPN before the ad plays — leaving it on may cause the ad to fail to load.

Why is my download so slow?

Download speed depends on your internet connection and (if enabled) your VPN speed.

Why does parsing fail?

Parsing can fail for several reasons:

1. Make sure your VPN or proxy is disabled
   • Disable it, then try again
2. The tweet must be publicly accessible
   • Not deleted
   • No access restrictions or private settings
3. Network or server issues
   • Try again a few times
