How to Download YouTube Videos (Up to 4K)
Paste the link into fastsaver.io, pick a quality, download. You get a normal MP4, up to 4K when the upload has it. Free, no login, no bullshit.
steps
- Copy the link. Tap Share under the video, then Copy link. On desktop, copy the address bar.
- Open fastsaver.io. The link is already in the box, or paste it.
- Hit download. A quality grid appears, 144p up to 2160p, with the file size under each. Tap the one you want.
- Save the file. Where it lands on your phone is in saving videos on iPhone and Android.
which quality
The grid only shows what YouTube stores for that video. A 720p upload tops out at 720p. 1080p is the sensible default. Take 2160p for a TV or for editing, and check the size first. Only want the sound? Tap the audio tile instead. You get the audio on its own, an m4a file, plays in every music app. Details in YouTube to mp3 or m4a.
when it won’t work
- Private, members-only or deleted videos. If it needs a login to play, it won’t download.
- Live streams, until they end and become a normal video.
- Playlists. One video at a time.
Prefer chat? Send the link to @fastsaver_bot on Telegram. Telegram caps bot uploads, so very large youtube files come back as a link. Keep what you save for yourself; the legal side is a short read.
