- Android or desktop? The free YDownloadNow extension for Firefox downloads straight from the YouTube page.
FAQ
Why isn’t there a YouTube downloader app for iPhone?
Apple doesn’t allow them in the App Store. The ones that slip through don’t last, or just open a site like this one with more ads.
Does it work on iPad?
Yes, Safari on iPadOS works the same.
Which iOS version do I need?
iOS 13 or later, when Safari started handling file downloads.
Is it legal?
Only download what you have the right to keep, such as your own or Creative Commons content, and respect YouTube’s terms.
