Download Tenor GIFs: a Whole Search or Profile in One Go
Tenor is a search engine of GIFs - the reactions, memes and loops people send in chats. Give NeoDownloader the address of a Tenor search, an official account or a creator's profile, and it saves the GIFs listed there in their HD version: real .gif files, named with the titles they carry on Tenor. You need no Tenor account.

How to Download GIFs from Tenor
A GIF's page on Tenor has no download button, and saving the picture with a right-click keeps whatever copy the page is playing. To take many GIFs at once - a search, an account, a handful you picked:
One-time setup: download NeoDownloader and install it. It is available for Windows, Mac and Linux. The steps below are what you repeat each time.

Find the GIFs and Copy the Address
Search on Tenor and copy the address of the results page, which ends in -gifs. For everything an official account or a creator has posted, open their profile and copy its address; for particular GIFs, copy the address of each GIF's own page.

Create projectLet the HD GIFs Arrive
Pick where the GIFs should go and press Create project. Nothing asks you to sign in. Each GIF comes as a .gif file in its HD version, and a search or an account is given its own folder, named after the words or the account. Started again on another day, the project fetches only the GIFs it has not saved before.
Tenor GIF Downloader for HD GIFs
Under every GIF, Tenor offers SD, HD and MP4 versions, and its page plays the lighter SD copy until you switch. NeoDownloader goes for the HD file - a genuine .gif, the same file Tenor shows in HD, not an MP4 made from it.
Nothing is scaled or re-encoded on the way, so every frame stays as Tenor keeps it. The file name puts Tenor's long numeric id in front of the GIF's title: 16675060056907675944 Clapping Applause.gif.
If Tenor keeps no .gif file of a GIF, NeoDownloader saves the next version it has, an MP4 or a WebM.
Download All GIFs from a Tenor Search
Whatever you type into Tenor's search box ends up in the address: tenor.com/search/applause-gifs for applause. Paste that address, and NeoDownloader pages through all the results the search returns, well past the first screen, into one folder named with your words.
Searches in other languages work the same way, and so do the addresses Tenor opens in your language, with a part such as /de/ after tenor.com.
A popular search returns hundreds of GIFs. The free version saves such a search up to its file limit per project and notes that in the journal; with Premium the rest comes down too.
Tenor Profile Downloader: Official Accounts and Creators
Organizations post GIFs on Tenor under official accounts, at tenor.com/official/ and a name - NASA's is tenor.com/official/nasa. People who make GIFs have profiles at tenor.com/users/ and a name. Paste either one, and NeoDownloader gathers the account's GIFs into a folder called @ and its name, such as @nasa.
No sign-in is needed for either. NeoDownloader finds a profile's GIFs through Tenor's own search, so a profile whose GIFs that search does not list has nothing to download.
Coming back to the project weeks later collects only what the account has posted in between.
Download Tenor GIFs by Link: Searches, Profiles and Single GIFs
- A single GIF - tenor.com/view/ followed by its name and number, from the address bar or the page's share link
- A search - tenor.com/search/ and your words, ending in -gifs
- An official account - tenor.com/official/ and the account's name
- A creator's profile - tenor.com/users/ and the name
- Any of them with Tenor's language part, such as tenor.com/fr/view/…, or typed without https://
- Several at once - one address per line, collected in one project
Tenor Downloader Features
Reaction GIFs by the hundred, sorted into folders and easy to trace back
A Folder for Each Search
All the GIFs one search returns land together in a folder named with its words: the applause search makes a folder called applause.
Titles, Not Codes
Every file carries Tenor's id and the GIF's title, for instance 11417951659847615064 Very Good.gif, so a folder of reactions reads like a list.
Back to the Very GIF
Look at a GIF's properties: “Found on” names the Tenor page of that one GIF rather than the search, and “Open on the site” brings it up in your browser.
Next Time, Only New GIFs
Run a search or a profile again later: GIFs already on disk are skipped, and the newly added ones come down.
Tenor GIF Downloader FAQ
Is there a free Tenor GIF downloader?
Yes. NeoDownloader is free to get and downloads GIFs from Tenor searches, official accounts and creators' profiles, all in HD. The free version has no time limit; Premium lifts its limits on the number of files per project.
How do I download GIFs from Tenor?
Copy the address of a Tenor search, an official account, a creator's profile or a single GIF's page. In NeoDownloader, click “New project”, paste it, click “Next” and then “Create project”. The GIFs come down as .gif files in HD, in a folder named after the search or the account.
Can I save a GIF from Tenor with my browser?
One GIF at a time: on its page, switch the version under the picture to HD, then right-click the GIF and save the image. Without that switch, the browser keeps the lighter SD copy the page plays first.
How do I download all GIFs from a Tenor search?
Search on Tenor and copy the address of the results - tenor.com/search/, your words and -gifs. Paste it into “New project”: NeoDownloader goes through every GIF the search returns and saves them in one folder named with your words.
Can I download every GIF from a Tenor profile?
Yes, from official accounts (tenor.com/official/…) and creators' profiles (tenor.com/users/…), without signing in. The GIFs go into a folder called @ and the account's name, and a later run adds only what was posted since.
Are Tenor GIFs downloaded as GIF or MP4?
As GIF. NeoDownloader saves the .gif file behind Tenor's HD version; it takes the MP4 only for a GIF that has no GIF version at all.
Does it download Tenor GIFs in HD?
Yes. Tenor keeps SD, HD and MP4 versions of a GIF and plays SD first; NeoDownloader saves HD, without resizing or re-encoding it.
Do I need a Tenor account?
No. Searches, official accounts, creators' profiles and single GIFs all download without signing in to Tenor.
Is there a Tenor downloader online or as an extension?
NeoDownloader is a program you install on your computer rather than a site you paste links into or a browser add-on. Running there, it can work through a search of hundreds of GIFs in one go, saving each from Tenor directly into the folder you chose.
