Hazel

Hazel is a downloader for video and audio, built on yt-dlp. Paste a link and it works out what is behind it, whether that is one video, a playlist or an entire channel.

No account is needed, nothing is tracked, and nothing about what you download is sent anywhere.

Downloading

• Works with YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, X, Reddit, SoundCloud and over 1500 other sites
• Paste one link, several at once, or a whole playlist or channel and queue them together
• Hazel Instant: share a link from any other app and the download starts straight away, at a quality you set once
• Downloads keep going in the background, and can be paused, resumed or cancelled from the card or the notification
• Wi-Fi only mode, checked when a download starts so a transfer already running is never cut off

Choosing what you get

• Pick from the formats and containers the source actually offers
• Choose a specific soundtrack where a source publishes more than one
• Edit the title, author, file type and metadata before anything is saved
• Save in any language the source provides

Processing

• SponsorBlock: cut out sponsors, intros and other segments
• Chapters: embed them in the file, or split it into one file per chapter
• Subtitles: burn them in, save them alongside, or both, in the languages you choose
• An offline video to audio converter

Privacy

• Incognito mode: downloads are left out of your library and links are not remembered
• No accounts, no analytics, and no data sent anywhere

Settings

• Dark and light themes with an accent colour of your choosing
• Available in English, Spanish, Hindi, Simplified Chinese, Brazilian Portuguese, French, German, Russian, Japanese and Indonesian, or whichever of those your device is already set to
• The yt-dlp engine updates on its own, from the Stable, Nightly or Master channel
