How to Download YouTube Shorts
-
Open the Short
Open the Short in the YouTube app or in a browser and tap Share, the arrow in the row of buttons beside the video.
-
Copy the link
In the menu that opens, choose Copy link. The address looks like youtube.com/shorts/…
-
Paste and download
Paste the link into the field at the top of this page — the options appear on their own. Choose 1080p, 720p, 480p, 360p, 240p or 144p in MP4 or WebM, or take the sound as an MP3 at up to 320 kbps or as the original M4A. The file is prepared in a few seconds and saved to your device.

HD MP4 with audio, every quality
Every resolution YouTube stores — 1080p Full HD, 720p HD, 480p, 360p, 240p and 144p, plus 1440p or 4K when the creator uploaded it — in an MP4 file with the sound included.
-
No watermark
The video comes exactly as it was published — no logo, no username overlay, nothing burned into the picture.
-
High quality, never re-encoded
The video and audio streams are copied as they are, so the MP4 you save is the same high quality YouTube plays.
-
Any device, no app

-
WebM, MP3 and M4A too
Besides MP4 you can take the video as a smaller WebM (VP9) file in the same qualities, or save just the sound as an MP3 at 320, 256, 192, 128, 96 or 64 kbps, or as the original M4A (AAC) track.
YouTube Shorts Downloader for iPhone and Android
Saving Shorts on iPhone and iPad (iOS)
You do not need an app to download YouTube Shorts on iOS. Open this page in Safari, paste the link, and choose the MP4 you want. Safari saves the file to Downloads in the Files app; open it there and use Share → Save Video to move it into Photos.
This is how any video download works on an iPhone — a website cannot write to the camera roll directly. The extra tap is Apple’s rule, not ours, and it is the same on every device running iOS.
Saving Shorts on Android
On Android the download behaves like any other browser download: the MP4 lands in your Downloads folder and shows up in the gallery shortly afterwards. Chrome, Samsung Internet and Firefox all work, and no app or extension is required.
If you download a lot of Shorts, add this site to your home screen from the browser menu. It opens like an app, in your language, and works exactly the same way.
Every format and quality you can download
Video comes as MP4 (H.264 video with AAC audio) in every resolution YouTube stores for the Short: 1080p Full HD, 720p HD, 480p, 360p, 240p and 144p — and 1440p or 4K 2160p when the creator uploaded in that quality. The same resolutions are offered as WebM (VP9 video with Opus audio), which is usually a smaller file for players and browsers that support it.
Audio comes as MP3 at 320, 256, 192, 128, 96 or 64 kbps, converted from the original track, or as the original M4A — the AAC stream exactly as YouTube stores it, with no conversion at all.
For watching on a phone or sharing in a chat, 720p is a good balance of quality and size. For editing, reposting or keeping a copy, take the highest option offered — 1080p for most Shorts. Every MP4 and WebM here includes the audio track: YouTube stores video and sound separately, so we put them together on our server before handing you the file.
Which links work
This is a downloader for YouTube Shorts: paste a link of the form youtube.com/shorts/… as the Share button gives it to you, with or without the tracking parameters on the end. Links to regular long videos, playlists and channels are not accepted.
Private Shorts, age-restricted Shorts and Shorts that have been removed cannot be downloaded — what reaches our side is what any signed-out visitor sees, and none of those are visible to one.
