Questions about YouTube

Frequently asked questions
Is it free?
Yes. GetClip is completely free and needs no sign-up.
Where is the downloaded video saved?
In your browser's Downloads folder. On iPhone: Files app, Downloads. Nothing stays on the server.
Why does 1080p take longer?
YouTube and some other platforms store high-quality video and sound separately. The server merges them into one MP4, which takes from a few seconds to a few minutes depending on length.
Can I download private or friends-only videos?
No. Only public videos work. We have no access to private, paid or protected content.
Is it legal?
Only download content you have the right to: your own videos, openly licensed material, or with the author's permission. Respecting copyright is the user's responsibility.
The link does not work. What should I do?
Make sure the link points directly to a video (not a profile) and that the video is public. Platforms change often, so trying again in a few minutes sometimes helps.
