What ClipSave is

ClipSave is a free, open-source Android downloader for images, video, and audio from more than 1,000 websites. Supported sources include YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X/Twitter, Reddit, Facebook, Pinterest, Twitch, Vimeo, SoundCloud, and Bilibili. The app downloads playlists, subtitles, and batches of links pasted or shared as text, with playlist review for selective queueing. Downloads can pause and resume, and the queue allows two concurrent engine jobs. ClipSave uses bundled yt-dlp, ffmpeg merging, and aria2c. Audio extraction produces M4A files from supported videos. Links can be shared from another app into ClipSave. Downloads are saved on the device through MediaStore; Android 10 and later does not require storage permission. The minimum Android version is 8.0. The README describes no ads, telemetry, or tracking. Authorized users can import cookies.txt, stored privately and excluded from backups. The project uses the MIT License.
