Seal VS dvd

Don't know about Ymusic as it doesn't seem open source, but seal [0] seems like a good alternative, based on yt-dl

Seal for Android

https://github.com/deniscerri/ytdlnis & https://github.com/JunkFood02/Seal Downloader for YT, TikTok, Instagram, Twitter and so on

Seal - open source video/audio downloader

On Android, you can use Seal[1] to download YT videos locally. It also supports many other sites.

There are also other ones like Powertube, Seal, Tubemate, SpotiFlyer(for music). Use whichever one you like.

If you want to use a downloader other than NewPipe, (such as Seal or YTDLnis you need to set it up in YT ReVanced

For me, the less-complicated client called "DVD" is more reliable for downloading than the client called "Newpipe"; the later stops working intermittently. YMMV.

(Neither are as reliable as using own custom command line programs on desktop, or mobile via Termux. If Google makes a change I can fix/workaround immediately. No waiting for app developers.)

For me, Newpipe works well as a Soundlcoud client.

From the Kotlin source for "dvd":

Video downloader app powered by yt-dlp (formerly youtube-dl).

Features

Download video/audio from 1000+ sites supported by yt-dlp.

Run custom yt-dlp commands.

Check out an app called DVD. It uses yt-dlp (which it downloads and updates for you).

For Android I use DVD

Try DVD on F-droid or you can find it on GitHub
