Made for Shorts
Nothing is cropped, padded or letterboxed. The Short downloads as a vertical MP4 that fills a phone screen, with its sound merged in, or as just the audio if that is all you want.
Paste the youtube.com/shorts/ link straight from Share, with no editing.
Switch to Audio for a track, a quote or a beat as MP3.
Pick a lower resolution when a Short is for a chat rather than a big screen.
The H.264 MP4 opens in phone galleries, editors and messaging apps.
Then Copy link, or copy the youtube.com/shorts/ address in a browser.
The Video (MP4) tab is ready for a vertical download.
Most Shorts are 1080x1920; the lower options make smaller files.
On iPhone it is in Files; Share, then Save Video, puts it in Photos.
Shorts are built to live inside the endless feed, YouTube offers no download button for other people's Shorts, and Premium's offline mode keeps files locked in the app. This tool saves any public Short as a normal vertical MP4 you own: no watermark, no app branding, original quality up to 1080p.
Only after the sound? Switch the converter above to Audio (MP3), and our YouTube to MP3 guide covers Shorts too.
On iPhone, use Safari, the Short lands in Files → Downloads, and "Share → Save Video" moves it into Photos. On Android, the MP4 appears in Downloads and usually straight in your gallery. The full device-by-device walkthrough (with fixes for the usual snags) is in our guide on how to download YouTube Shorts.
Saving a Short for offline viewing is one thing; re-uploading someone else's Short as your own is copyright infringement and earns channels strikes. Use YouTube's remix tools or get permission if you want to feature someone's work. Saving your own Shorts is the best way to keep master copies, details in the legality guide.
