October 23, 2012 by Saqib Leave a Comment

YouTube is the world’s largest and most popular destination for videos. It is not always possible to stay connected to the internet and that’s why you would feel the need to download the video from YouTube to your Android device.

Watching videos online on YouTube means you would need to wait for buffering to complete, if you are on slow internet connection. Therefore, a good solution will be to save the video directly to your Android device and this is possible with the help of an Android app named as TubeMate.

Download YouTube Videos to Android Phone With TubeMate App

Before installing TubeMate, navigate to Settings > Applications and checkmark “Unknown sources”. This step is required because we will be installing TubeMate outside of Google Play. This app is not available in Google Play and therefore you need to install it from the developers site.

The folder icon in TubeMate can help you browse to all the downloaded videos. The magnifier icon is used for searching any video on YouTube.
