YouTube downloader — Frequently asked questions
Can I download YouTube Shorts?
Yes — paste any youtube.com/shorts/… link and the tool resolves the stream so you can preview it, download the MP4, or extract the MP3.
Can I extract just the MP3 audio?
Yes. Click Extract Audio after processing to download a clean MP3 instead of (or alongside) the video.
What's the maximum quality?
Up to 1080p MP4 when the source supports it. Some videos top out at 720p depending on the original upload.
Does it work on age-restricted or members-only videos?
No. Age-restricted, private, members-only, and region-blocked videos can't be fetched.
Why does my video only load as a preview?
Some YouTube videos restrict free extraction. In that case the tool falls back to an embedded preview so you can still watch it inline.
