Saving a YouTube video for personal offline viewing is generally accepted in most countries. Re-uploading, redistributing or using downloaded content commercially without permission from the rights holder is a copyright violation. Always respect the original creator.

Most video downloaders are cluttered with fake buttons, require you to sign up, or quietly install something on your computer. SocialGraber does none of that.
We built this tool because we were frustrated with every other option. The result is a clean, fast interface that does exactly one thing: takes a YouTube link and gives you the file.

YouTube is the world's largest video platform with over 800 million videos. Whether you want to save a tutorial for offline learning, keep a music video for your commute, or archive a live stream before it disappears, having a reliable downloader makes all the difference.
SocialGraber supports every format YouTube offers. For video, you can choose from 360p, 480p, 720p HD, 1080p Full HD, 1440p QHD, and 2160p 4K — depending on what the original video was uploaded in. For audio, we extract a clean MP3 file directly from the video stream.
If you are saving a video to watch on a large screen or TV, 1080p or 4K makes a real difference. For mobile viewing or saving storage space, 720p is usually the sweet spot. For podcasts and music, MP3 audio is all you need.
YouTube actively works to prevent third-party downloaders. We use multiple fallback methods including different player clients and proxy routing. If a download fails on the first attempt, try again — it usually works on the second. You can also try selecting a different quality option.
YouTube Premium offers offline downloads within the YouTube app, but only for as long as you keep paying. SocialGraber gives you the actual file on your device — no subscription, no expiry, no app required. The file is yours to keep.
