"Twitter (X) is a massive source of real-time news and viral clips, but the official app offers zero tools for saving videos natively. For iPhone users, the common 'solution' involves installing suspicious third-party apps full of ads and trackers. Many users believe they need a dedicated 'Downloader' app to get media off the platform. In 2026, the sophisticated way to handle Twitter media on iOS is through direct browser-based extraction. This 2500-word tutorial provides the exact steps to save Twitter videos in HD directly to your iPhone's gallery using only Safari—no app installs required."
