Step by step
How to save from YouTube
Copy the video link
Use Share, then Copy link on the video.
Paste it here
Audio mode is already selected on this page.
Choose format and bitrate
MP3 works everywhere. “Original” skips re-encoding and keeps YouTube’s own audio (usually Opus or AAC).
Save
Tap Save file. Title and artist tags are added unless you switch them off.
Which bitrate should I pick?
YouTube’s own audio is usually around 128 to 160 kbps. Converting it to 320 kbps MP3 makes the file bigger without making it sound better. 128 kbps is a sensible default; choose “Original” for the most faithful copy.
Use it for what’s yours
Music on YouTube is usually licensed to YouTube, not to you. ClipMagpie is meant for audio you own or that’s openly licensed. For commercial music, the artist’s own store or streaming service is the right place.
YouTube questions
Does converting to MP3 improve quality?
No. Re-encoding can only keep or lose quality. Pick “Original” if you want exactly what YouTube stores.
Can I convert a whole playlist?
No, one video at a time. That keeps our server fair for everyone.
Why does it sometimes fail?
YouTube limits servers like ours. Support is best-effort; try again later if YouTube is blocking us.
Are songs tagged with title and artist?
Yes, when the info is available. Turn on “Strip title/artist metadata” under More options to skip it.
