Copy the Short’s link
Shorts play in a full-screen feed, so the link isn’t always obvious. Open the Short you want and either copy the address from the address bar or use the Share button on the Short. The link looks like xhamster.com/shorts/….
Save it
- Open the xHamster Downloader, paste the link and press Get video.
- Pick a quality. Shorts are short, so even the best quality is usually under 10 MB and saves in seconds.
- Find it in Files → Downloads on iPhone, or in Downloads on Android and computers.
Shorts are vertical. Quality labels go by the short side, so “1080p” on a Short means a 1080 × 1920 video.
Make it a GIF or add a caption
Shorts make great loops. Paste the same link into the GIF Maker to cut the best few seconds, then save it as a GIF or a small MP4 loop. The Caption Maker adds text across the whole Short, with the sound kept.
The xHamster to GIF guide walks through it step by step.
