What FBGrab does
Facebook keeps several versions of every uploaded image: a small thumbnail for the feed, a medium version for the lightbox, and the largest version it kept after processing. Saving a photo with right-click usually gives you one of the smaller ones. FBGrab reads the post and returns the largest version available for that link.
- Open the Facebook post that contains the photo you want.
- Tap the photo first so it opens in full view, then tap the share icon and choose Copy Link.
- Paste the link in the box above and press Download.
- Check the preview — if the post holds several photos, a button appears for each one.
- Press the image button and the file is saved to your gallery as JPG or PNG.
What works
- Public photo posts, public album photos and public profile or cover pictures
- Posts holding several images — each one gets its own download button
- The largest version Facebook kept, in its original JPG or PNG format
What does not work
- Photos in private albums, friends-only posts or private groups
- Photos sent in Messenger, and photos already deleted by their owner
- Resolution higher than the copy Facebook stored after its own compression
