YouTube's video library is ever-growing: it is increasingly accumulating more and more videos, and there's just so much content that it's tough to get through it all. We all have our favorite videos that we watch from time to time, and there's always that one song that's not on streaming platforms at all but is somehow on YouTube.
Some people like to preserve their favorite clips, and you never really know if yours will get taken down at some point, so it's nice to have some of them stored locally. Whatever it is, there are lots of reasons one may want to store some YouTube content on their system, and for that, 4K Video Downloader is up to the task.
This is a very compact program, and it's been intuitively designed to make sure that you get to download your videos as fast as possible, without unnecessary bloat or other such things.
Copying a link to the clipboard, then interacting with the Past Link button will bring up a context menu, prompting you to select the desired video quality, as well as the format — either .mp4 or .mkv. The menu is cleverly designed because it also tells you the codec, as well as the size of the exported file.
The ability to download entire playlists is also available here, though it should be noted that you're allowed to download 10 songs per playlist in the free version.
A neat feature offered to you here is the Extract Audio function, useful for when you want to download songs from YouTube and don't care about the video part. Upon choosing that option, the app will inform you of the audio bit rate, which is always something worth knowing. You can export in the .mp3, .m4a, as well as in .ogg formats.
The Smart Mode is especially convenient to use: it allows you to download videos in just one click, as the program defaults to your preferences, applying the settings to all downloads.
4K Video Downloader is worth your while: whether you're looking to preserve a video, save a playlist, or download a song, it'll do the job just fine.
