Frequently asked questions

Should I download every competitor ad?

No. Save only useful examples and keep notes about why each ad matters. A focused swipe file is easier to analyze.

Can I reuse competitor creative?

Do not copy or republish creative you do not own. Use downloads for research, education, and inspiration within legal and platform limits.

What should I record with each saved ad?

Record the advertiser, date, offer, hook, format, and why the creative is useful.

Does MetaDownloader store my research library?

No. Downloaded files are saved by your browser. Organize them in your own folders or research system.
