YouTube Save - Downloader
A social-media downloader bot with 360k+ monthly users: paste a link and it pulls the video down from YouTube and other networks, no separate site or app needed.
Key features
- Fetches video from a pasted link and sends it back as a file
- Bio claims support across multiple social networks, not just YouTube
- Simple, menu-free chat interface
YouTube Save - Downloader
YTSaveBot (@YTSaveBot) is a straightforward link-to-file converter for video: its own bio states it "downloads from all social networks," and its confirmed 362,000+ monthly users make it a genuinely active, non-abandoned project rather than a one-off script someone forgot to shut down.
The workflow is the same as most bots in this category — no menus, just paste a link and wait for the reply. That keeps the learning curve at zero, but it also means there is nothing to configure: no quality selection, no audio-only mode confirmed, and no way to see what happened to a failed request beyond retrying it.
It is best treated as a quick everyday tool for grabbing a video you already have a legitimate link to (your own upload, a public clip a friend sent, a tutorial you want offline) rather than a feature-rich downloader. For anything beyond "give me this one file," a browser-based tool or a more actively documented alternative bot is a better fit.
How to start
- Open @YTSaveBot and tap Start
- Paste the video link into the chat
- Wait for the bot to reply with the downloaded file
