Understanding the 'Handshake'

When you 클릭 'Download', our server requests the file from the social platform, and your browser requests it from us. If either side of this 'Handshake' is blocked by a firewall or adblocker, the data transfer never begins, resulting in the 0% freeze.

The 'Anti-Adblock' Resolution

Some adblockers mistakenly flag the binary data stream of a video download as a 'Tracking Script'. Try adding SaveMedia.website to your adblocker's whitelist or disabling it for 60 seconds while you save your file.

Storage & RAM Limitations

On mobile devices, if your storage is 99% full, the browser might preemptively stop a download before it starts. Free up at least 500MB and try again.

Conclusion: Finish Your Download

A stuck progress bar isn't a dead end. Usually, a simple network or setting tweak is all it takes to unleash the full speed of our extraction engine. try again on SaveMedia Home.
