YouTube users in India rejoice. You can now download YouTube videos on
your Android or iOS device using the official YouTube app itself and
watch the videos later while you are offline or on a slow connection.
It takes a few easy steps to download a video on the YouTube app.
Open a video, tap the download button (see screenshot), choose the
resolution for the downloaded video and it will begin to download on
your device. There’s a new “Offline” section in the YouTube app where
you can find a list of all videos that are currently in the download
queue or available for offline watching.
The offline feature is available on the YouTube app for both Android and iPhone.
That said, there are certain obvious limitations. One, not every
video available on the YouTube website is available for download. The
offline mode is mostly disabled for music videos and movies.
Also,
the downloaded videos can only be watched inside the YouTube app. I did
some digging on Android and it turns out that YouTube saves the videos
into smaller chunks as .exo files, a format that is not supported in
other media players.
There are however no restrictions around the
number of videos that you can take offline with the YouTube app, you
are only limited by the free storage available on your iPhone or Android
phone.
