FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Why does YouTube only give me 720p?

YouTube Studio gives you an archive copy in MP4 – 720p or 360p depending on the video size. Keep the original high-quality file yourself.

Can I download someone else’s YouTube video?

Not officially: YouTube only lets you download your own videos. With YouTube Premium you can save other videos for offline viewing, but only inside the app.

Why do TikTok and Instagram videos have a logo?

That’s how these platforms export saved files. If you need the video for another network, use the original file without the logo.

Where do I get the recording of my stream?

On Twitch – in Video Producer, Past Broadcasts tab. On Kick – Creator Dashboard → Studio → VODs. Recordings are kept for a limited time, so download them right away.

How do I download all my videos at once?

YouTube – via Google Takeout. TikTok, Instagram, Facebook and X – via the data export in your account settings; the archive takes from a few hours to a few days.

Do you download the video for me?

No. The page shows the official method for your platform, and the download happens on the platform itself. The link is only used to detect the platform; we don’t store it.
