FAQ

What if a download fails or shows an error?

• Confirm the link is valid and opens in your browser.
• Update VidBee to the latest version and retry.

Why does the same link sometimes work and sometimes fail?

Some sites frequently change page structure or limit request rates. Suggested steps:

• Make sure VidBee is up to date.
• Reduce the number of concurrent downloads.
• Use cookies to reuse your signed-in session when needed.

Which sites are supported?

Why is the download speed slow?
