Reddit videos, with the sound
Reddit stores video and audio as separate files. dwnldr merges them for you.
If you have ever saved a Reddit video and gotten silence, that is not a bug in your player: v.redd.it serves the video track and the audio track as two separate files. dwnldr downloads both and merges them automatically, so the file in your Photos plays with sound everywhere.
It works straight from the share sheet in the Reddit app or from a copied link.
How it works
- Get access and add the dwnldr Shortcut. It is free while in beta.
- Tap share on a post and pick dwnldr in the share sheet.
- Seconds later the result is in your Photos, ready to post anywhere.
