How to download YouTube Shorts

  1. In the YouTube app, open the Short and tap Share → Copy link.
  2. Paste the link above and press Download.
  3. Choose MP4 quality or MP3.

Repost your own Shorts on other apps

Creators often download their own Shorts to share on Instagram Reels, TikTok or Facebook. Downloading the original file keeps the best quality instead of screen-recording.

Only repost Shorts you created or have permission to use. Re-uploading other people’s content can lead to copyright strikes.
