There are alternative means, though, to download YouTube videos without paying for the subscription, as explained below. Then, on any platform, you can simply click on the 'Download' button which shows on the page of any video and it will automatically be stored to your device. To do this, the only way to do so is to pay 11.99 dollars per month for YouTube Premium, which allows you to do so. YouTube's terms of services state that content should not be downloaded unless done via the platform directly. It's not unusual to want to download a YouTube video, in order to access the file when you do not have an internet connection, for example when travelling or struggling for a strong internet connection.
