Dark Posted June 22, 2020 Posted June 22, 2020 (edited) Free YouTube downloaders make it easy to save videos from YouTube in a format of your choice, so we've rounded up the very best in one convenient place. The best free YouTube downloader is 4K Video Downloader – a free program that puts many paid-for tools to shame. It has no ads, saves videos in the format of your choice, and won't place watermarks on your downloaded clips. You can even use it to extract the audio from a video, or download an entire playlist. However, there are occasions when you don't need quite that much power, so we've also ranked a range of other free YouTube downloaders that cater to more basic requirements, such as when you simply want to grab one video in a hurry. Free YouTube downloaders are always changing, but we upgrade this guide frequently so you can be sure that you're always getting up to date advice. If you're specifically interested in saving music from YouTube, you might want to check out our guide to the best free YouTube to MP3 converters as well. We've rounded up the best free YouTube video converters if you want to play videos offline on a different device, like a phone or tablet, plus the best free video editors for clipping and cropping your saved videos. If you want more detailed instructions, check out our full guide: how to download YouTube videos for free. Online YouTube downloaders vs desktop software There are many sites that you can use to download YouTube videos, but we don't recommend them due to their disadvantages over desktop software. First of all, they're slower due to the limitations of the remote server and your data connection. Many such sites also feature ads of a NSFW variety, or display thumbnails of recently downloaded videos, which may not be appropriate. Online video converters typically don't give you much (if any) choice about the video file either, in terms of quality or expert format. They only allow you to download a single video at a time, and you can forget about saving whole playlists. 3D and 360-degree videos are also out of the question, and very few can handle 4K. Is downloading YouTube videos legal? Before you use a free YouTube downloader, bear in mind that using third-party apps to download videos is against YouTube's terms of service, which say you can only stream videos directly from its servers. Downloading videos is also a potential copyright infringement unless you own the video yourself, have permission from the copyright holder, or it's in the public domain. Running a very close second, WinX YouTube Downloader can download videos from all the most po[CENSORED]r sites, including Facebook, Vimeo and DailyMotion. It's very easy to use. Just paste in a URL, select an output format and quality setting, and it will be added to the current batch. Once you've added all the videos you want to download, simply click the 'Download' button and they'll all be processed at once, and saved to the destination folder of your choice. WinX YouTube Downloader can download 4K video when available, and only loses out to 4K Video Downloader because it's unable to download 3D and 360-degree videos. If this isn't a problem for you, this free YouTube downloader comes highly recommended. Edited June 24, 2020 by Dr.Drako Closed Topic / Complete 24 hours. 3 1
