Paste any YouTube URL below to download the video as an MP4 — full-length Shorts or long-form uploads, in your choice of resolution. No app, no login, no watermark.
Pick your download quality — 360p for quick-share clips or 1080p for full HD. Always MP4, always watermark-free.
Works for every public YouTube format: regular uploads, Shorts, unlisted (with URL), and most age-gated content.
Our tool downloads the original video stream. No Likes.io overlay, no banner, no branding.
All the heavy lifting happens on our servers — your browser just receives the finished MP4, so downloads are fast even on slow connections.
No YouTube account needed. Paste the URL, pick the quality, hit Download — that's it.
Three easy steps — done in under a minute.
Open the YouTube video or Short you want. Tap Share → Copy Link, or copy directly from your browser's address bar.
Paste the URL below, choose your preferred resolution from the dropdown, and click Download.
Our servers fetch and package the video. When it's ready, a download button appears — one click and the MP4 saves to your device.
Save any public YouTube video or Short as a high-quality MP4 directly to your device. Our free YouTube Video Downloader works for regular uploads, YouTube Shorts, and even unlisted videos if you have the URL. Pick your resolution — 360p, 720p, or 1080p — and download in one click. No software installation, no sign-in, no watermark.

Yes — Shorts work identically to regular YouTube videos. Paste the Short's URL and pick your resolution (Shorts max out at 1080p vertical).
Videos up to 2 hours and 2 GB are supported. Longer or larger videos are rare on YouTube Shorts but can fail for full livestreams.
YouTube's Terms of Service restrict downloading content without permission except via approved methods (YouTube Premium). Downloading for personal offline viewing is broadly tolerated, but republishing without credit is never allowed. Check the video's Creative Commons license when in doubt.
