YTDLnis

What YTDLnis is

YTDLnis is a free Android app for downloading video and audio, with a graphical interface for yt-dlp. It supports websites that yt-dlp supports, which the site describes as more than 1,000. Users can download playlists or multiple links and choose the format, container, folder, and filename. Downloads can run in the background, wait in a queue, be reordered or scheduled, and run at the same time. Observe Sources can check playlists, channels, or other pages periodically and download new uploads. SponsorBlock can remove submitted sponsor and other segments from downloaded files or add those segments as chapters. For more control, users can run yt-dlp commands with command templates, extra commands, or the in-app terminal. Cookies can be used to access private or members-only videos when the user’s account has access. YTDLnis also supports subtitle downloads and batch downloads. Its privacy policy says the app does not collect usage information, track activity, create user profiles, or share user data with third parties. Only the latest release or beta version is supported. The app is for Android, and the site says there is no iOS or iPadOS version planned. DRM-protected services such as Netflix and Amazon Prime are not supported by yt-dlp.
