Download a video from Youtube it is a recurring task for many users. Currently there are applications for mobile devices that do this task in a simple way, however, for some time the platform has also allowed it to be done for Premium users and for those who use Youtube Go.
At the time we announced that downloading YouTube videos may be considered illegal, especially if the purpose of this download is to profit from them or promote piracy.
YouTube mentions the following in its Terms and Conditions:
“The contents may not be downloaded, copied, reproduced, distributed, transmitted, broadcast, displayed, sold, licensed or exploited for any other purpose without the prior written consent of YouTube, or YouTube’s licensors, in the event of that was applicable. YouTube and its licensors reserve all rights that have not been expressly granted with respect to its Content ”.
Basically the above means that only Youtube or the owners of the videos have the permission to download and store a video on your phone. Considering that the downloading of videos for educational or personal use is legal is not valid, unless you have the permission of the owner of the video.
However, as difficult as it may sound, many content creators have no problem downloading their videos as long as permission is asked. For that reason, if you have the creator’s permission, or if you want to download videos from the platform that you uploaded and of which you no longer have the original file, here we tell you how to do it from Telegram.
Download YouTube videos from Telegram
Telegram is one of the most complete instant messaging applications on the market. Part of its versatility is in the opportunity to use bots to obtain functions that are not available natively. We insist that the use of bots for different tasks is not illegal as long as they are used correctly.
And it is that although there are third-party applications that can help you to download YouTube videos, there is a bot that does exactly the same in Telegram, so you can avoid installing an APK or application that will only take up space in your device.
- To use this bot you must go to this link.
- Start the bot.
- Later you must paste the link of the video you want to download.
- The bot will take care of extracting the video file.
Once finished you can save the video to your device directly in your gallery, or share it with a cloud storage service. This bot works both on mobile devices and in the desktop application.
We remind our users that they should only download YouTube videos from videos to which they own the rights, or with the permission of their creators.
