YouTube questions

Can I download YouTube Shorts?

Yes. Copy the Short’s link (Share → Copy link) and paste it — Shorts download like any other video, in their vertical format.

How do I convert a YouTube video to MP3?

Paste the link, pick MP3 instead of a video quality and tap Download. You get the audio as a 192 kbps MP3.

Why is 1080p the highest quality?

1080p looks sharp on every phone and laptop and keeps files small enough to send. 4K files are several times bigger, and WhatsApp compresses videos anyway.

Can I download a whole playlist or channel?

No — one video at a time. Open the video you want and copy its own link.
