YouTube is one of the biggest platforms to enjoy unlimited videos and music. Google has introduced official apps YouTube or YouTube Music for you. You can download the YouTube app from Google Play Store.

In a recent update to YouTube, the application allows you to download videos and music on your device’s storage memory. But if you want to download videos and music from this Google-owned streaming service, you, unfortunately, need to subscribe to YouTube Premium, which offers various additional benefits.

In simple words, YouTube Premium is a new name for the YouTube Red service, which offers ad-free viewing, exclusive content, and the option to listen to music behind the scenes.

YouTube Premium also offers an offline player feature that directly downloads videos and music in MP3. You can listen to those songs even if you are offline or not connected to the internet.

For those of you who are already users of this Premium service, here is a more detailed explanation of how to use the download feature to save videos and music on the YouTube platform.

How to Download Videos or MP3 Songs from YouTube

Just like on the regular YouTube app, users can find all the songs they’ve ever downloaded in Library. In particular, a new sub-menu will appear entitled Downloads on that page.

In addition to having to subscribe to a Premium membership, both methods above unfortunately require a native application (be it YouTube or YouTube Music) to play successfully saved videos or songs.

Therefore, if you need the option of downloading content as a common file (MP3 or MP4) so ​​that it can be played through other applications, users need help from third-party services such as YTMP3.
