Tutorial: How to Save Videos from YouTube on Your Computer or Mobile Device

Have you ever tried to watch a video on YouTube on your computer or mobile device, but the “uploading” screen never seemed to go away? If that’s the case, you’re in good company. Despite the proliferation of video-sharing platforms, it might be challenging to find a solution that allows you to see the same content on your desktop and mobile device.

Fortunately, a few options exist. It is possible to watch YouTube videos on multiple devices at once by using a service like Hulu or downloading an app like YouTube TV. In addition, you can watch videos on YouTube without spending a fortune.

Video Download Instructions for Computers and Mobile Devices.

The first step is to launch YouTube on your computer or mobile device. After entering YouTube, navigate to the Downloads section and choose the video you wish to save. The next step is to initiate a download by clicking the Download button. Depending on the size of the video you choose, you may have to wait a few minutes for it to download completely. As soon as the video finishes downloading, you can play it in YouTube.
