There are several ways to get your video files from the site, including by using YouTube Premium, downloading using an app, and copying and pasting the URL into a web browser. You can even upload a YouTube playlist to download several videos at once. Here, we&#8217;ll cover all of these methods in more detail. In addition to the methods discussed here, you may also want to download videos to your computer, smartphone, or tablet through the use of a website.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"YouTube_Premium\"><\/span>YouTube Premium<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>When you become a YouTube Premium member, you&#8217;ll have access to a new feature called offline viewing. While viewing videos on your mobile phone, you can download them to your computer. This feature is available for the Chrome, Edge, and Opera browsers, and may be available for other platforms in the future. YouTube Premium downloads can be saved for up to 29 days. To watch them offline, you must connect your device to the Internet and reconnect periodically. Videos that you have downloaded will be removed from your device when the next sync occurs.<\/p>\n<p>The background play mode lets you listen to music, podcasts, and playlists while still enjoying your videos. This feature also allows you to lock your phone or close apps without disturbing the video. You can still watch your downloaded videos when you want to. Make sure you&#8217;re signed in with your YouTube Premium account to enable this feature. You&#8217;ll also be able to watch videos you&#8217;ve downloaded to your phone while you&#8217;re watching other content.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"SaveTube_online_tool\"><\/span>SaveTube online tool<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>One option for downloading YouTube videos is to use an app like SaveTube. This program uses Java to download videos, so you must install Java on your PC. After you install SaveTube, simply provide the video&#8217;s URL, and the program will generate download links. Some of these applications even offer the option to extract audio from the video, so you can also download audio tracks as well. You can find more information on these apps in the following sections.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve downloaded a video, open it in a compatible application. For desktops, right-click the video URL, select &#8220;Save Link As&#8230;&#8221;, and then click &#8220;OK.&#8221; Alternatively, you can tap and hold the save video button and the downloaded file will appear in the right-hand pane. This method is available on all major platforms, so you can download YouTube videos from nearly anywhere and on any device.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"TubeMate_for_Android\"><\/span>TubeMate for Android<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>TubeMate for Android downloads YouTube videos for free. It supports a variety of video services and social networks, and allows users to download videos in 1080p HD. Users can customize the user interface and set the default language and video and audio players. TubeMate also features a search engine to make it easier to find videos. However, some features may not be available in the free version. Here are some pros and cons of TubeMate for Android.<\/p>\n<p>This app comes with its own media player, which you can use to playback the videos. The interface is simple, and includes controls to change volume, pause and resume downloads. It can even mirror the video to your television, if you have one. Other features include a download manager and advanced options. Users can choose where to save the videos, use the integrated player, and select a dark theme.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"AnyTrans_for_iOS\"><\/span>AnyTrans for iOS<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>There are many ways to download YouTube videos to your device, and one of these is by using third-party YouTube download apps. While these are convenient, they can also change the default settings on your device. AnyTrans for iOS is an easy alternative to downloading videos from YouTube directly to your device. Just type the URL of the video you want to download into the download link field and AnyTrans will open the file in its own media library, ready to be transferred to your iPhone or iPad.<\/p>\n<p>Once you&#8217;ve downloaded AnyTrans, you can choose which videos you want to download. Once you&#8217;ve done that, click on the download button to begin the download process. You can even change the location to a different folder if you want. AnyTrans will also allow you to change the format of the video you&#8217;re downloading, so that you can view it on your iOS device. If you&#8217;d like to watch the video on your computer later, you can select it and click &#8220;Save&#8221; to store it.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"TubeMate_for_Mac\"><\/span>TubeMate for Mac<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>If you want to download YouTube videos for later, you should install TubeMate for Mac. Its interface is easy to use and you can start downloading videos in a few seconds. Once you install it, you can switch to the download mode that is most suitable for you. For example, if you are constantly watching videos on YouTube, you can choose to download only the audio stream or a whole video or playlist. It can also resume a broken download, if needed.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to downloading videos, this program also downloads subtitles, which are necessary when you are playing videos on YouTube. You can save these videos individually or download subtitles in bulk. You can also save them based on playlists. For example, you might want to download all the videos from a certain band&#8217;s discography, or all the movies from a specific director. If you are a fan of a film director, you can download all his films and save them.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"TubeMate_for_Windows\"><\/span>TubeMate for Windows<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>The Windows version of TubeMate is available as TBYB or shareware software. Rather than buying the software outright, you can download the trial version first and try it for 15 days to see if it meets your needs. It also allows you to choose which video formats to download. In addition to downloading YouTube videos, TubeMate allows you to download videos in various formats, including MP4, AVI, WMV, and more.<\/p>\n<p>If you&#8217;d like to download YouTube videos to watch offline, TubeMate for Windows can help you. It supports multiple websites including YouTube, Vimeo, and Facebook. The download process is fast, with speeds of up to 500%. And, as an added bonus, TubeMate lets you convert your downloaded videos into MP3s without the need for an external plug-in.
