An Android library that wraps the yt-dlp (formerly youtube-dl) executable, bundling Python and the binary so Android apps can download and stream videos. It is published on Maven Central and includes optional FFmpeg and aria2c modules.
Use cases
- download youtube videos in an android app
- embed yt-dlp in android application
- stream video from youtube on android
- build a video downloader app for android
- extract audio from youtube videos on android
- run yt-dlp commands programmatically on android
When to choose
- you are building an Android app that needs video/audio downloading from supported sites
- you want yt-dlp's full command flexibility inside Android without managing binaries yourself
When to avoid
- you need video downloading on desktop or server platforms rather than Android
- you only need simple YouTube API metadata lookups without downloading
- your app targets strict Play Store policies that disallow YouTube downloaders
