Save the video, not a screen recording.

Open a page in VidSave's browser. It notices the video, shows you every quality it can save, and writes the one you pick straight to your phone.

What it does

Everything happens on the phone. There is no server in the middle and nothing to sign up for.

It finds the video

Browse normally. VidSave watches what the page loads and lists what can be saved, including video split across separate picture and sound tracks.

You pick the quality

Every size the page offers, with an estimate before you commit. Set a default so the right one is chosen for you next time.

Streams become one file

Streamed video arrives in hundreds of small pieces. VidSave fetches them, joins them and writes a single MP4 you can play anywhere.

Keep just the sound

Save any video as an M4A instead, or pull the audio out of something you already saved. It is a copy, not a re-encode, so nothing is lost.

A player for one hand

Speed from half to four times. Brightness down the left edge, volume down the right, double-tap to skip, and a lock so the screen stays put.

Nothing passes through us

Downloads go from the site's own servers to your phone. We never see, store or relay what you save.

Three taps, start to finish

01

Open the page

Paste a link, or share one to VidSave from another app. The page loads in VidSave's own browser.

02

Tap the button

A badge counts what was found. Move the button anywhere on screen if it sits over something you need.

03

Pick and save

Choose a quality, or audio only. It carries on in the background, and picks up where it stopped if the signal drops.

What it won't do

Better to know before you install than to find out after.

  • Paid streaming services are protected, and protected video cannot be saved. VidSave tells you so rather than failing halfway.
  • A live broadcast can only be saved once it has finished.
  • Some sites show their video only to people who are signed in. Sign in on the page first, then save.
  • Saving someone's work does not make it yours. Keep to what you are allowed to keep.

Questions

Is it free?

Yes, with ads. Ads never appear over the browser — only in your library, and once after a download finishes. A paid tier will remove them.

Where do my files go?

Video into Movies, audio into Music, both in a VidSave folder. Your gallery and music apps pick them up straight away.

Do you see what I save?

No. There is no account, and the video travels from the site to your phone without touching us. The only thing you can send us is feedback, if you choose to.

Which phones?

Android 8 and newer. There is no iPhone version, and none planned.
