Download Youtube Videos on Android


You must have seen a music video you want to download from Youtube and wondered -- how can I download this to watch offline?

You can use this application to download Youtube videos in 2 formats:

1. MP3 for music
2. MP4 for video



NewPipe is the application I am using. The main purpose of the application is to watch Youtube videos without annoying ads. But I found that the download feature is actually quite useful. And for someone like me who has no internet traveling to work every day, it's a lifesaver! (You know the boredom while in traffic here in Manila 😓)

You can download NewPipe from F-droid (yes, not available on Playstore). But the link I gave above is the direct link to APK (android installer package) in the developer's Github account. At the top is always the latest version which is v0.17.4 at the time I am writing this.



Once you have installed the application, you can:

1. search for a video
2. select it from the search results
3. click on the Download button
4. select your format
5. click OK to begin the download

Hope this helps! 😄

His company-owned laptop having his Microsoft account as the only available user and we cannot recover his password. We needed his files so we cannot just reset the computer. So our only choice is to create a new local admin account and make sure this never happens again. Before we begin, please make sure that you have the DVD installer for your Windows OS. If you're all set, follow along the instructions below carefully: 1. Insert your Windows DVD into your DVD reader. 2. Boot from the DVD.
