How to download YouTube videos on Android

YouTube is one of the most popular video streaming platforms in the world. Although YouTube does not provide the original download functionality for its videos, there are easy and convenient ways to download YouTube videos to your Android device. In this article, we will introduce you to some of these methods. However, it’s important to note that downloading YouTube videos is generally against YouTube’s terms of service unless you have the video’s owner’s express permission or the video is available for legal download.

YouTube Premium

If you have a YouTube Premium subscription, download YouTube videos from the official YouTube app. It requires a paid subscription, but there is a trial version and it comes with other features beyond the ability to record videos.

To save a video from YouTube to your Android device, launch the YouTube app, find the video you want to download, and tap download Under Video, choose quality options like 720p or 360p.
