SSvid
SSvid is a video and audio downloader for macOS, Windows, Linux and Android. It supports YouTube, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, X, Vimeo, Reddit, Dailymotion, SoundCloud, Pinterest and more than 1,000 other platforms. Downloads range from 144p to 4K and can be saved as MP4, WebM, MP3 or M4A, including video-only or audio-only output. Playlist, subtitle and batch downloads are supported. The app includes a browser that can intercept videos with one click, while downloads can pause and resume after closing the app. The free plan costs 0.00 USD forever, requires no signup and allows five downloads per day. Paid passes are one-time payments with no automatic renewal: 10.00 USD for seven days, 15.00 USD for 30 days, 25.00 USD for 90 days and 42.00 USD for Lifetime.
