Pick a quality

Save it offline

Why Grablytic
Built from the Bionic linker up for privacy, fidelity, and speed — every download stays on your device.
1,000+ Platforms
YouTube 4K/8K/HDR, SoundCloud 320k, Twitch, TikTok, Instagram, Bandcamp, and hundreds more supported natively via yt-dlp.
Dual JS Runtimes
Two built-in engines pick the right solver for your device — fast by default, compatible everywhere. Nothing extra to install.
Zero Telemetry
No ads, no trackers, no analytics SDKs. 100% local processing strictly contained on your personal device.
Highest Fidelity
Saves the original quality — crisp video up to 4K/8K/HDR, full-quality audio, subtitles and thumbnails. No re-encoding, no quality loss.
Hardware-Optimized
Tuned builds for every chip — fast downloads and a smooth 120Hz interface on phones, foldables, tablets and desktops.
100% Open Source
Every line of code is published under the GPL-3.0 license. Inspect, audit, verify, and improve freely.
Batch Playlists
Download a whole playlist in one tap — pick videos, grab audio-only, and let the queue with auto-skip handle the rest.
Fluid Dark UI
A clean interface that stays smooth at 120Hz — readable on phones, foldables, tablets and desktop alike.
One-Tap Presets & Profiles
7 built-in recipes (YouTube 4K, Podcast Audio, Lossless FLAC…) plus unlimited custom presets and per-site profiles — save your setup once, reuse forever.
Share From Any App
Send a link from YouTube, your browser, or chat straight into Grablytic. A choice sheet confirms quality first — or auto-start and skip it.
Schedules & Watchlists
Gate downloads to overnight Wi-Fi windows, or let background watchlists poll your channels and auto-queue new uploads while you sleep.
Clip Sections, Keep Chapters
Download just 10:15–20:00 of a 3-hour stream with FFmpeg section cutting — bad timestamps warn and skip instead of failing the job.
All architectures and platforms
Dedicated native binaries compiled per ABI with embedded Bionic FFmpeg and dual JavaScript runtimes. Table pinned to v0.0.6 (every SHA-256 verified) — newest is v0.0.6 on GitHub Releases →.

Direct answers on privacy, licensing, binary integrity, and hardware tuning.
Is Grablytic really free?
Yes, completely. No paid tiers, no ads, no tracking, no subscriptions, no feature gates. Grablytic is 100% open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 (GPL-3.0) — every line is published on GitHub for inspection and audit.
Where do I download it?
Right here — this site routes you directly to official GitHub Releases. Android users can also install via Obtainium for seamless automated updates. See the install guide for per-OS steps.
Does it require an account or login?
No accounts, no email sign-ups, no cloud registration. Install the binary and start downloading immediately. Optional logins (e.g. cookies for age-gated or private content) stay on your device and are strictly opt-in.
Which platforms and architectures are supported?
Android 8+ (arm64, armv7, x86_64), Linux x64 and arm64 (standalone tarball, .deb, .rpm, Arch pkg.tar.zst), and Windows 10/11 x64 (portable zip). iOS and Web are not supported. See the install guide for per-OS steps.
Can I contribute to development or packaging?
Absolutely — issues, feature requests, and pull requests are welcome on GitHub. Packaging manifests live in the distribution/ and fastlane/ directories of the repository.
Where does the downloaded media come from?
Grablytic extracts publicly available streams directly from platforms via yt-dlp, on your own device. It hosts and stores no content itself. See the DMCA notice on GitHub for takedown inquiries.
