Is there a reason one would use yt-dlp instead of the many other easier options, really wondering what Im missing. There's Seal , newpipe and others
There's a lot of downstream applications that do just use yt-dlp behind the scenes. I'm pretty sure that's how Invidious' download function works. It also supports a metric shitload more services: https://github.com/yt-dlp/yt-dlp/blob/master/supportedsites.md
Newpipe
The best way to download YouTube videos is Yt-dlp, and the best way to use it on android is trough this app : https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.deniscerri.ytdl
Not used this but it seems like a wrapper for YT-DLP for Android which I use all the time on the desktop:
YTDLnis (Android Video/Audio Downloader app using yt-dlp) https://f-droid.org/packages/com.deniscerri.ytdl/
??? No such App found is all I get. Do I need to add another repo to find it ?
It's on izzyondroid repo: https://apt.izzysoft.de/fdroid/index/apk/com.deniscerri.ytdl
Also I highly reccomend it, it even integrates sponsorblock so you can download only the parts without ads or intros.
I searched for "YTDLnis" inside my F-Droid client (Droid-ify) and it worked.
