What is the best method for facebook reels download?
Windows 11 does not have a built-in tool for this.
Screen Recording is the universal approach for downloading facebook reels videos as far as i know.
When all else fails, or if the Reel has complex audio (like licensed music that downloaders can't grab), use your device's built-in screen recorder.
iPhone/iPad: Go to Settings > Control Center > Add "Screen Recording”. Then swipe down from the top-right corner to access it.
Android: Swipe down your notification shade—most modern Android phones have a "Screen Recorder" tile. If not, you can find many apps on the Play Store.
Windows/Mac: Press Win + G on Windows to open the Game Bar, or use a tool like OBS Studio (free and powerful) on either platform.
Pros:
Guaranteed to work on any video, anywhere.
No need for internet tools or apps.
Cons:
Quality is limited by your screen's resolution.
May capture UI elements (like the like button, your battery indicator).
Can be inconvenient to trim the start and end of the recording.
