YouTube is one of the largest video-sharing platforms in the world, with millions of videos available to watch and enjoy. While you can watch these videos online, there may be times when you want to download them so that you can watch them offline or save them for later viewing. In this article, we will show you how to download YouTube videos in MP4 format, so you can enjoy your favorite content anytime, anywhere.
To download YouTube videos in MP4 format, you can follow these steps:
- Open your web browser and navigate to the YouTube video you want to download.
- Copy the URL of the video by clicking on the address bar at the top of your browser, highlighting the entire URL, and then pressing “Ctrl” + “C” on your keyboard (or “Cmd” + “C” on a Mac).
- Open a new tab in your web browser and navigate to a YouTube video downloader website, such as SaveFrom.net, Y2mate.com, or Online-Convert.com.
- In the URL field on the downloader website, paste the copied YouTube video URL by pressing “Ctrl” + “V” on your keyboard (or “Cmd” + “V” on a Mac).
- Select MP4 as the output format. Some downloader websites may also give you the option to select the video quality, such as 720p or 1080p.
- Click the “Download” button to start the conversion process. The conversion time may vary depending on the size of the video and the performance of your internet connection.
- Once the video is converted, click the “Download” button to save the MP4 file to your device. You can find the downloaded file in the designated download folder on your device or by going to “Downloads” in your web browser.
- You can now enjoy the MP4 video offline or transfer it to your portable device for viewing on the go.
