How to download — step by step

  1. 1

    Copy the video link

    On bilibili.com, open the video and copy the address from the browser bar — it looks like bilibili.com/video/BV1xxxxxxxxx. In the app, tap “分享” (Share) → “复制链接” (Copy link) — you get a short b23.tv/XXXX link.

    Tip: Old links with an av number (bilibili.com/video/av123456) and mobile m.bilibili.com links work too. No need to strip anything after the “?”.

  2. 2

    Paste the link into Skachok

    Paste the link into the field and click “Find”. In a few seconds a card appears with the preview, title and available qualities — usually 360p, 480p, 720p, sometimes 1080p.

    Tip: Bilibili blocks regular web requests from abroad, so we fetch the video through the platform's mobile API — it works with no VPN on your side.

  3. 3

    Pick a quality and download

    Click the quality you need — the MP4 starts downloading; for options where video and audio are stored separately, we first merge them on the server. The progress is shown on the card.

    Tip: For music videos and covers, choose MP3 in the “Audio” block — save just the sound.

Why download videos from Bilibili

Bilibili loads slowly from abroad, and not always, and saving a video to your device is only possible in the Chinese app with an account.

  • Watch anime reviews, covers and MMD videos offline without the lag of an overseas connection.
  • Save tutorials and lectures by Chinese creators that aren't available anywhere else.
  • Grab a video for editing, translation or subtitles.
  • No Chinese account and no Bilibili app needed.

Supported links

Any of these links will do — the full one from the browser or the short one from the app’s Share button.

On Android

On Android, in Chrome or any other browser the file is saved to the Download folder and shows up in your gallery and any player. No need to install the Chinese Bilibili app.

On a computer

  • Copy the address from the browser bar, paste it on skachok.com and click “Find”. The file is saved to “Downloads”.
  • For 1080p and above we merge video and audio on the server — it takes from 10 seconds to a couple of minutes.
  • If your player has no sound, open the file in VLC or pick another quality.

FAQ

What quality can I download from Bilibili?
Usually up to 720p–1080p — it depends on the video: Bilibili serves some videos in 1080p only to signed-in users, and then 720p is the maximum. We show every quality we could get. Without a Skachok account — up to 720p; 1080p starts on the Lite plan.
Do I need a VPN or a Chinese account?
No. Our server fetches the video itself through Bilibili's mobile API. All you need is the link — no VPN, no Bilibili sign-up, no app.
Do short b23.tv links work?
Yes. b23.tv/… links from the “Share” button in the app are resolved automatically — paste them as they are.
Will the file contain the danmaku comments?
No. Bilibili overlays the scrolling comments on top of the player as a separate layer; they are not part of the video file. You get a clean video with no captions.
Can I download anime and series from the Bangumi section?
Often not: content under bilibili.com/bangumi/… is region- and licence-restricted, and Bilibili doesn't serve it outside China. Regular user videos at bilibili.com/video/BV… download fine.
Can I download only the audio?
Yes. Choose MP3 (192 kbps) in the “Audio” block after the search. Paid plans also offer M4A, OGG and FLAC.
