Wistia Video Downloader Plus
Description from store

Easily download any Wistia video on any website!

Select the resolution you need (240p, up to 8k) and see the video size you want to download.

Also download the captions whenever they're made available by Wistia.

⬇️ How to download a Wistia video with this extension?

Simply visit the page which contains the video, and once it's fully loaded, a download icon will appear in the corner of the video frame (might take a few seconds to show).

Click the icon and choose the resolution/version you want. The video will start downloading immediately.

This extension gives you access to any resolution from 240p to 8k, based on what's made available by the author of the video.

Use cases:
- download videos from Skool (only if they're hosted on Wisita)
- download videos from courses you've purchased
- if you're a video editor, designer or marketer, you might want to save a video you like for inspiration, design/editing or for re-use
- if you're an entrepreneur, you may need to save videos that are important for your business

FAQs:
1- The download button doesn't appear on the video, what's wrong?

Answer: Make sure that the page fully loads while you have the tab open and visible. Loading the page in a secondary tab will not activate the download button.
On some platforms like Skool, you need to reload the page again for the download button to appear.
Note: for protected videos where you'll need to enter your details or a password first before watching, the extension will not work.

2- The download button doesn't show on Skool even when I reload the page again. What should I do?

Answer: Not all Skool videos are hosted on Wistia. The owner of the course might have hosted his videos on another platform. This extension will only work for videos hosted on Wistia.

We welcome any suggestion & feature ideas that can improve this extension.

Amazing to save videos before a subscription runs out. Thank you! Just downloaded and refreshed the page. boom!
Connor Brown
The tool works well, but the Chrome Web Store omits the presence of a download limit. The extension prompts you to share it on one of two toxic social media platforms to reset the credits from 0 to 30 or wait 2 days. I've downloaded fewer than 30 total videos with this extension, and I haven't used it at all recently. This rubbed me the wrong way.
Suki Leith
Works perfectly!

Works in youtube videos?
Dale Mueller
Works great
Darren Starr
Very helpful tool. The last one I had stopped working a while ago. Whilst that one has gone. This one now does the job perfectly and even has the option to capture the captions too. Excellent being able to reference the videos later. Thank you!
Access Canine Solutions
BLESS YOU! I've been trying to download some webinars I purchased for hours. None of the online "download embeded wistia" sites worked, and inspecting the site for the embedded video's source was a bust. I'm not trying to steal content. I just know from experience that the internet is NOT forever and any promises of lifetime access can't be trusted. THIS was INCREDIBLY easy!!! No fussing with the code. Just hit the button and BOOM! I can't wait to try it on some older webinars I took years ago. By chance do you have an extension for Vimeo, too?
Gwyn Morasko
Wow! I am THRILLED with this tool! We had a death in the family and I was unable to attend the last 2 months of a mastermind series that does not have lifetime access, so I was scrambling to find the best way to download the recordings without having to screen record it real time with Camtasia. This was a LIFESAVER and TIMESAVER during this very stressful time. Even at the highest resolution, it only took 37 seconds to download each file rather than setting up Camtasia for 2.5 hours times 6 meetings! Whew! I have used previous Wistia download tips in the past that required digging into the source code and knowing what to look for. And even though I'm a retired rocket scientist, I do NOT enjoy being a computer scientist! Thank you for building this great extension!
José Miguel Rodríguez Barrera
Amazing extension
Frederic Bauer
Works perfect. Only optimization: Would be nice if it also takes the original name of the file.
CLAUDIA SANCHEZ
easy to use, thank you
Sharise Parviz
Excellent! Thank you
Rod Beckwith
Just what I needed. It's so simple to use and works flawlessly. Keep it up!
Joseph Koech
This is great. Some quick feedback: 1. Is it possible to select a specific download folder or remember the path the user chooses? It always defaulting to downlaod 2. Minor issue: select default video name as the name of the video while saving. Current, defaults to just save as 'video'. Thanks though!
