Tips for iPhone Users
Make the most of downloading on iOS:
Use Safari for Best Results
Safari integrates with iOS download management better than other browsers. Downloads appear instantly in your Files app.
Find Your Downloads
Open the Files app, tap Browse, then select Downloads under Locations. Your saved videos are stored there.
Move to Camera Roll
To add a video to your Photos, open it in Files, tap the Share button, and select "Save Video" from the menu.
Check iCloud Storage
If Files saves to iCloud by default, large videos count against your cloud storage. Switch to "On My iPhone" to save locally.
Safe and Private Downloads
YTDMP4 runs entirely in your browser, so you never need to install apps from outside the App Store or compromise your device security.
Your Security Matters
- No App Installation Everything works in Safari or Chrome. No downloads from unknown sources, no profiles to install, no security risks.
- Encrypted Connection All transfers happen over HTTPS, keeping your activity private from network observers.
- Privacy Respected We do not require accounts, collect personal data, or track which videos you download.
