Download any YouTube video without any Software /Third party app(NO ROOT)

How to use Termux to download YouTube videos

Last week, we showed you how to download any video from Android terminal without using any third-party software. But there were two major issues that were stopping people from trying it.

1. You would have to type dozen of commands, and many of you get an error messages while doing that.
2. There was no option to download videos in multiple formats like 240. 360, or audio file etc.

And finally, thanks to Gabi Tiplea, we have a simple solution. All you have to do is, type in 4 commands in your Termux app and this time it’ll give you options to download different format.

Download Any Video on Android Without Any Third-Party App (Video)

Follow the steps

1. Go to play store and download the termux app. If you tried the previous tutorial on termux, then uninstall the termux app and reinstall it.

2. Next, open the termux app and copy paste the 4 commands in the same order. Just copy paste them it will run som commands to download the library.

wget http://pastebin.com/raw/EuEnKkLF-O install.sh

dos2unix install.sh

chmod u+x install.sh

./install.sh

3. When prompt, you will have to tap OK, to allow termux access to your storage. And after running few more command, it’ll be all done.

4. And that’s it. Now, if you go to any video sites that is supported by YouTube-dl and then tap on share button > Select termux app > select any format by typing the number corresponding to it. And there we go.

5. The downloaded file will be available on your YouTube folder in the root of internal storage.

So, what really changed?

Instead of typing the code one by one like the last time (link above) we have grouped them together in a Pastebin file. And in the current setup, we are using Wget to download that Pastebin file and installing it.

In future, if you guys need any feature request, just shoot us an email and we can simply update the paste bin.
