YouTube downloader FAQ

Can I download any YouTube video?

Only public videos the resolver can reach. Private, age-restricted and region-locked videos are refused, and the app tells you when that happens.

Why is the file not 4K?

DownloadTray saves the file the resolver serves. It cannot upscale or re-encode a stream that is not offered.

Do Shorts work?

Yes. Shorts links resolve the same way as regular watch links.
