About Tumblr Media Downloader 📥
Need to grab photos or videos from Tumblr for a project? I've been there. Whether you're building a mood board, backing up a favorite artist's work, or curating content, manually saving each file is a nightmare. This Apify actor is basically your bulk download button for Tumblr. You give it a blog URL, and it pulls down all the high-quality images and videos from the posts you specify. It handles the tedious work of finding the original media files so you don't end up with compressed thumbnails. I find it super useful for a few specific things. Content creators often use it to archive their own posts or collect inspiration. Archivists and researchers rely on it to preserve visual threads from blogs that might not be around forever. And if you manage social media, it's a lifesaver for quickly gathering assets from Tumblr to repurpose elsewhere, with proper credit of course. You run it, get a clean dataset or a zip file of the media, and you're done. It just takes a task that would normally waste an hour and completes it in a few minutes.
