Everything you need to download Vimeo.
One paste, and it’s yours, at the quality and format you want.
Save at the quality Vimeo hosts
Vimeo tends to keep a crisp master. Pick Best and Vidferry takes the highest the source offers, or step down to 720p when you want a smaller file.
Pull a whole showcase or channel
Point Vidferry at a Vimeo showcase, album, or channel and it lists the videos, then saves them one after another into your folder.
Keep just the audio
For a talk, a score, or a podcast, switch to MP3 or M4A and Vidferry saves the sound and skips the picture.
Private and on your machine
It all runs locally. No account, no ads, no telemetry. What you pull off Vimeo stays yours.
A Vimeo downloader for the high-quality stuff
Vimeo is where film goes to look good: short films, festival cuts, client work, video that someone actually graded. Vidferry keeps that quality on the way down. You paste the link, it reads the streams Vimeo is serving, and it writes an MP4 at the resolution you asked for. It runs on your Mac or PC, with no ad wall and no account, and nothing about the download leaves your machine.
Every link is handled on your machine, and Vidferry merges Vimeo’s video and audio into a single MP4 (H.264 video, AAC audio). Pick Best for the sharpest copy the source holds, or drop to 720p or 480p when you’d rather save the space.
Showcases, channels, and single films
Vimeo groups work into showcases and albums, and creators keep channels of their uploads. Hand Vidferry any of those and it lists the videos, then saves them one after another into a folder you choose. A single film works the same way, just faster.
Signed in? It can ferry that too
Some videos only play once you’re logged in, like a private upload shared to your account. In Settings, point Vidferry at the browser you use for Vimeo, and it uses that session to fetch them. The cookies stay on your machine, and it won’t reach anything you can’t already watch yourself.
How to download Vimeo videos
Three steps, about a minute. No setup, no sign-up.
- 1
Copy the Vimeo link
Copy the video URL from the address bar. A showcase link queues every video inside.

Pick quality and format
Choose Best for the sharpest stream Vimeo has, or a lower tier. MP3 and M4A grab just the audio.

Ferry it over
Hit download. The video lands in the folder you chose, ready to watch offline.
Vimeo downloader FAQ
Anything that plays for you. Paste the link and Vidferry saves an MP4. A few videos are set so they only play on the creator's own site, and those it can't reach.
An unlisted video with a link works as long as it plays for you. For a private video tied to your account, point Vidferry at your browser in Settings so it can use your session. It won't reach videos you can't already watch.
Vidferry unlocks videos through your browser session, not a password box, so a video locked behind a password isn't one it opens on its own. If you can already play it while signed in, your browser session may carry it.
Yes. Paste a showcase, album, or channel URL and Vidferry works through the videos in turn. Large ones come down in pages of about a hundred at a time.
Vimeo often keeps 1080p or higher, so Best gives you the top the source has. Vidferry merges the streams into one MP4 that plays in QuickTime.
