Tumblr downloader that gets all images and videos

Tumblr is a microblogging and social networking site that allows users to post various multimedia content such as images, gifs, videos, audio/music, etc. Sometime in 2018, Tumblr underwent a great purge of accounts resulting in some media content being lost forever because no one backed up those Tumblr accounts. If you like a Tumblr blog, you better back it up because you may find out it's gone the next time you visit. Downloading images and videos from Tumblr is easy for single posts via right-clicking. However, when you want to download hundreds (or thousands) of posts or even an entire Tumblr blog, the process becomes cumbersome. For that, you need a Tumblr downloader. One Tumblr downloader that gets the job done quickly and easily is WFDownloader App. It's a free bulk downloader that can quickly download images and videos from many websites including Tumblr. The tool supports downloading images, gifs, audio, and videos from entire Tumblr blogs, archives, tags, searches, and even single posts. The downloader can also download from private Tumblr blogs or posts via cookie import. It's free and cross-platform (i.e., it runs on any PC whether the OS is Windows, Mac, or Linux).

Notes:

  • The software has been tested to work on the following Tumblr pages: blog, archive, likes, tagged, single post, and search. It should download all the images, videos, and audio from the pages. However, if any of these pages do not work for you, please report your issue to get it addressed.
  • There is now a "Config" button that allows you to select whether you want to download reblogs or download externally hosted videos on Tumblr.
  • If the page is private to you, you will need to import cookies as already mentioned above.
  • If the Tumblr page frequently adds new media, you don't need to repeat this entire process to get the new media. Simply click the "Update" button and only the new media will be downloaded for you.

Downloading from Tumblr posts, tags, and searches

The process is simple. You simply copy the link to the Tumblr page, paste it into the application then perform a search. If the Tumblr page is private, you will have to first import cookies from your browser as explained at the beginning of this article. For example, to download images from a Tumblr post, just copy the link to that page and paste it into the app as shown below. Notice that only images were found.

How to download Tumblr images and videos online

If you don't want to install an external/third-party tool, there are online tools to download from Tumblr. The limitation is that they work on only public Tumblr accounts and only download from single posts. If you're on a mobile phone and only want to download an image or a video, this might be what you are looking for. One popular Tumblr video downloader that works is thedownvideo.com. Just copy and paste the link to the Tumblr video into the text field and then click on the download button.
