What happens when you install
Silent Automatic Configuration
On first launch, yt-dlp app checks for yt-dlp and FFmpeg on your system. If either is missing, the official builds are configured silently in the background. No manual command lines.

Copy a URL from YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, or any of the 1,510+ supported platforms. Video thumbnails, available streams, codecs, and file sizes load instantly.
Pick Quality & Download
Select your preferred resolution (up to 4K HDR or 8K) or audio-only extraction. The file is saved directly to your local drive. No cloud servers, no rate caps.
Built to be trusted
