TubeArchiver Features
Effortless Downloading
Paste a YouTube link, and TubeArchiver takes care of the rest. It supports individual videos, entire playlists, and full channels. Choose your preferred quality from 360p to 8K, and the app downloads everything while showing real-time progress with speed, file size, and estimated time remaining.
Smart Organization
Every download is automatically sorted into folders by channel name, so your video library stays clean and browsable without any manual effort. Built-in duplicate detection lets you safely re-import a playlist or channel at any time without downloading videos you already have.
Full Download Control
TubeArchiver gives you complete control over your downloads. Pause and resume at any time, retry failed downloads, or cancel ones you no longer need. On the Pro plan, you can run up to 5 downloads simultaneously, and the app automatically checks your available disk space before starting.
Subtitle and Cookie Support
Download subtitles in SRT format that are automatically recognized by media players. Use browser cookie integration to access age-restricted and private videos that require authentication – no workarounds needed.
Privacy by Design
TubeArchiver stores everything locally on your machine. We do not collect, store, or have access to any of the videos you download. The only data we handle is your account information for authentication and license management.
