Safe-Use & Permission-First Guidelines
YTGear is a technical parser that streams files directly from the hosting servers to your browser thread. This tool is designed strictly for creator backups, public domain research, and saving files you own or have explicit permission to archive.

Troubleshooting Facebook Link Failures
Facebook posts set to "Friends Only" or shared inside closed groups require login cookies. YTGear does not request your credentials and operates as an unauthenticated checker, meaning it only parses fully public content.
Facebook CDNs actively protect high-bandwidth links using tokens. Ensure you copy the clean direct link by clicking the post's date/time stamp and pasting it immediately before the token expires.
