Go to Facebook and look for the video whose thumbnail you want to download. This could be a reel, a video post on a page, or a public group post.
Tip: Make sure the video is public. Private or restricted videos might not allow thumbnail extraction
Once you find the video:
On the Facebook app, tap the Share button and then choose Copy Link.
On a desktop, right-click and copy the video URL.
This link will be needed to fetch the thumbnail.
Now open your browser and go to:
www.solyptube.com
You’ll see an input field at the top of the Solyptube homepage.
Paste the Facebook video URL you just copied into that field.
Click or tap the Download button next to the input box
Once the video is processed, Solyptube will display several options:
Video formats in different resolutions
Audio-only version (if available)
And the thumbnail image preview
Find the thumbnail image. There will be a small preview and a Download Thumbnail button right next to it.
Click on the Download Thumbnail button. The image will either:
Open in a new tab (you can right-click and choose Save image as...), or
Start downloading directly, depending on your browser settings.
Now you’ve saved the Facebook video thumbnail to your device for later use.
