I’ve been working on ClipSave, a privacy-friendly Android app for downloading video, audio, and images from more than 1,000 supported websites.
The goal was to create a downloader that feels like a proper native Android application rather than a simple wrapper around a command-line tool.
What makes ClipSave different?
- Completely free and open source
- No advertisements
- No telemetry or user tracking
- Supports 1,000+ websites through yt-dlp
- Video and audio quality selection
- Audio-only extraction
- ffmpeg merging and aria2c downloads
- Automatic platform detection
- Share links directly from other apps
- Floating download button while browsing supported apps
- Foreground downloads with live progress notifications
- Built-in downloads manager and video player
- Material 3 interface with light, dark, and system themes
- No storage permission required on Android 10+
ClipSave is built natively with Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, and Material 3. It uses a bundled yt-dlp engine while keeping the Android integration, download management, interface, and application architecture fully open for inspection and improvement.
