Downloading content for later reading is most useful on mobile, where the quality of your connection is determined by your location. But there are many of us whose home connection isn’t that good either, or who prefer to play media on laptops which are also limited by location. To this end, YouTube is now testing the uploaded video to the desktop for Premium subscribers.

The experimental feature has been spotted by Android Police tipsters subscribing to YouTube Premium in India and France, and it appears to be widely available elsewhere. If you want to try it out, head over to youtube.com/new to check out the Labs page when you’re signed in, and you might see something like this:

To download a video, go to its page and click the Download button in the toolbar below the title.

The downloaded videos can be played at youtube.com/feed/downloads, which is also available through the side navigation panel. It should work on Windows, MacOS, and Chrome OS. According to the text on the intro page, this experimental feature will complete its first tests on October 19.

In the settings menu, you can choose to download in different qualities with a maximum of 1080p, or remove all your local downloads from your browser’s cache with a single button.

We can hope that it will become permanently accessible after this, although it is possible that Google may remove everything or wait a few months for the problems to be fixed after the test. Of course, there are plenty of third-party alternatives for downloading YouTube videos (although we won’t try them on an unpatched browser!), If you don’t want to mess with the official implementation.
