YouTube video downloader — save streams as files
Paste a YouTube link, review available formats, then download the one that fits your device.
YouTube serves different encodings per device; this tool lists readable options after you paste a standard watch or share URL.
Downloads are prepared on the server from public stream data. Private, members-only, or region-blocked videos may fail with a clear error instead of a broken file.
YouTube downloader workspace
Turn a share link into a concrete file choice instead of guessing in the browser.
Only download videos you have the right to save. You must comply with YouTube’s Terms of Service and applicable law. This tool is for personal, lawful use.
What you can do here
Turn a share link into a concrete file choice instead of guessing in the browser.
Stream details are resolved on the server; your link is not stored after the request.
Pick a row and download—your browser saves the file like any other attachment.
We surface a clear reminder: use only content you may download under the rules.
Nothing auto-downloads until you click a format’s download link.
How to use it
Copy the video URL from YouTube (watch page or youtu.be short link) and paste it into the field.
Click “Load formats” and wait for the title and quality rows—pick combined video+audio when you want a simple file.
Use Download on the row you want; if a video-only option is labeled, combine with a separate audio track in an editor if needed.
What to expect
YouTube changes stream formats frequently. Some videos only offer split audio and video; some requests fail for DRM-heavy or restricted content. Large files can take time—keep the tab open until the download finishes.

Quick question
Does this store my YouTube links?
No. The server fetches stream metadata and pipes the bytes you request; we do not keep a catalog of URLs you paste.
