Downloaded videos not showing on Photos App

I have downloaded some videos from web to my iPad through Safari Browser. These videos are showing, as well as playing, well when open on Files App. But those same videos are not shows up on my Photos App Library/Album or on other Apps video library. On other hand, when I record videos from my iPad camera it shows normally on Photos App (don’t know how to view recorded video through Files App but thats not the problem ATM).

What to do to view my downloaded videos on Photos App and on other Apps.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

Ok guys I figured out the solution for my query.

Thanks BTW


The solution is to save those videos again.

Yes this is bit confusing but when you download any video, it shows in the download folder of your Files App ( it got downloaded but not save, the iOS language 😜 ).

Now you need to ‘Select’ all those videos and click on ‘Share’.

Then, on the next popup, you need to click ‘Save the Videos’.

This way those videos “save” once again but in the ‘Photos App’.

Enjoy!!
