How to download a YouTube playlist on your Android phone

Using YouTube on your mobile phone without being connected to a Wi-Fi network will surely deplete your data plan. To watch a video or a playlist without Internet, we recommend downloading the content you want for your device.

For this tutorial, we’ll teach you how to download YouTube videos through an alternate app. Videoder is a tool that allows you to download entire playlists from the Google video site. See below for how to download a YouTube playlist on Android using the app.

Before you begin, be aware that the app you’re using is not available in the Play Store. Therefore, you must enable the installation of APKs on your device. Here’s how to proceed:

  1. Open the “Settings” screen of your Android and go to “Security”;
  2. Enable the “Install apps from unknown sources” option.

Done the steps above, you are ready to install the application required and start doing your downloads. Follow the steps:

  1. Visit the Videoder website on Android and download it;
  2. In the notification bar, tap “Videoder APK” and then “Install”;
  3. When opening the application, look for the playlist you want to download or paste your link if you have one;
  4. Tap the download icon as highlighted below and set the details of how you want to save the playlist. You can, for example, choose the playback quality.

The application can save videos from playlists in audio and video formats, making them available for use on Android media players.

Remember to make sure your YouTube download is legal since the content of the artists on the service is mostly copyrighted.
