The 6 best YouTube downloaders


YouTube mobile

In principle, it is not possible to download videos within YouTube. If you still want to download videos on your PC, you need extra software or a website that facilitates this. This is often accompanied by unwanted advertising and annoying pop-ups. We have listed a few YouTube downloaders that are nice to use.

Download from YouTube

Downloading from YouTube is very nice, to save videos locally or to save on your smartphone or tablet to watch on the go (without an internet connection). YouTube does not allow you to download videos from the streaming site. After all, Google misses out on advertising income this way and some rights holders can sulk against Google. Many YouTube downloaders are therefore forced offline. But there are still plenty of alternatives that do work.

Keepvid

The original Keepvid site has been taken offline by Google. Fortunately, the site made a restart under the domain Keepvid.pro. Sometimes you have to paste the link in the search box a few times for it to work, but once it works you can download your clip in .mp4 format.

YT Downloader Plus

YT Downloader Plus is a free software program in which you can easily paste your YouTube links and convert them to the desired file type. You can choose all possible file types for your video or just download the audio if you prefer.

Handy in this program is that you can download and convert multiple links at the same time. Nice trick about this program: you can choose to have the program close itself when you have finished downloading.

WinX YouTube Downloader

WinX YouTube Downloaderis also a free software program that you must download before you can get started. The tool not only allows you to download videos from YouTube, but also from Facebook or Vimeo, for example. Paste the URL of the video into the program, set the video quality and download the video. If a video is available in 4K, you can also download it in that quality.

Youtube to MP4

Youtube to MP4 does exactly what its name says it does: it converts your YouTube link into a downloadable MP4 file. Here you have nothing else to choose, no options regarding the size of the file or file type. If an MP4 file is just what you need, this site is a great solution. Furthermore, it is clear and you do not have to be afraid of advertisements or a thousand unclear download buttons.

YouTube to MP4 is the most simplistic downloader site out there, but if that’s what you love then this is the site for you.

4K Video Downloader

Also 4K Video Downloader is another downloadable free software program. However, this program focuses not only on YouTube but also on all kinds of other social media platforms on which videos can be posted. So do you want to email that funny Facebook movie to your elderly grandmother? Then you can with the 4K Video Downloader.

The program itself is simple, clear and has a pleasantly light interface. Of course, such a program does not require much fuss, but you are not thrown to death with advertising either.

CC Clip Converter

CC Clip Converter has slightly less options than the online version of, for example, the Online Video Converter or the software program of YT Downloader Plus, but that does not make the site less suitable for picking your YouTube video off the net.

A nice feature of CC Clip Converter is that you can not only download videos with a link, you can also upload videos from your computer to convert. You will then be redirected to the Cloud Convert site.
