Which quality to choose

The available options depend on the original video on RUTUBE. 720p is usually enough for a phone, while for a bigger screen it's worth picking the highest resolution available. The higher the quality, the larger the file.

If the download doesn't work

  • Check that the URL points to a single RUTUBE video, not a channel or a playlist
  • Make sure the video is public, hasn't been deleted, and opens via the link
  • Copy the address again without any extra text
  • Try a different quality option if a particular format is temporarily unavailable
