Download Tumblr videos on iPhone
Safari saves it to Files. Then two taps.
By using this site you confirm you have the right to download the file you request.
How it works
- 1
Copy the post link
Either tumblr.com link shape works.
- 2
Paste it here
This one takes a few seconds — Tumblr refuses plain readers, so the page is opened in a real browser on our side.

Save, then move it to Photos
Files → Downloads → long-press → Share → Save Video.
The wait is the platform, not your connection
Tumblr answers anything that is not a browser with a 403, so the post has to be loaded for real before there is a file to fetch. That is a few seconds on every link, and it is the reason this works at all.
