Hi,
A college recorded and sent a short video clip in Teams chat. The clip was recorded by a mobile device directly from the recording function in Teams chat: Send a video clip in Teams - Microsoft Support
I can view the video clip the Teams chat, but I want to download the file. The file is not in the "file" tab in the chat.
How can I download the video file from the chat?
Thank you!

We figured out how to get around this Microsoft glitch. Not sure why they changed it. On the iPhone if you go into the Photo's app, and click the share icon in the bottom left and tap that, and then select Teams as the app to share it in and share it that way they will be able to download it. It will give you a message that it exceeds the file size and will have to send it as an attachment and you can just click Continue and it will send it anyway.
not helpful. it talks about meeting recording (recorded within teams app) and not video clip download, one recorded from a phone and sent via teams.
This is not how it should be - but this is what worked for me:
On my phone (only works on my phone, not on desktop), I long pressed on the video file and selected share, then I could select someplace to send it. If it is short, you can email it to yourself. You can send it to Dropbox or OneDrive. I luckily have an app where I can send it to our Synology NAS.
It is not perfect, but it was the workaround that got me going. MS should definitely fix this.
I used the Android version of Teams: (Android 13)
From there one can watch or re-share the video-files.
