Introducing the TubeArchiver Desktop App

TubeArchiver is now available as a native desktop application for macOS and Windows — bringing fast, local video archiving right to your system.

A native experience

We're excited to announce that TubeArchiver is now available as a standalone desktop application for macOS and Windows — no browser tab required.

The desktop app includes every feature from the web version: video and playlist downloads, quality selection, concurrent download management, pause and resume support, and automatic duplicate detection.

What's different on desktop

  • System tray integration — minimize to tray and let downloads run in the background
  • Native file dialogs — choose your download directory with a familiar OS picker
  • Fast and lightweight — runs as a native app with minimal resource usage

Download it today

Head to our downloads page to grab the installer for your platform. Your existing account and subscription work seamlessly — just sign in and start archiving.
