I built ClipSave, a free and open-source media downloader for Android

I’ve been working on ClipSave, a privacy-friendly Android app for downloading video, audio, and images from more than 1,000 supported websites. The goal was to create a downloader that feels like a proper native Android application rather than a simple wrapper around a command-line tool. What makes ClipSave different? Completely free and open source No advertisements No telemetry or user tracking Supports 1,000+ websites through yt-dlp Video and audio quality selection Audio-only extraction ffmpeg merging and aria2c downloads Automatic platform detection Share links directly from other apps Floating download button while browsing supported apps Foreground downloads with live progress notifications Built-in downloads manager and video player Material 3 interface with light, dark, and system themes No storage permission required on Android 10+ ClipSave is built natively with Kotlin, Jetpack Compose, and Material 3. It uses a bundled yt-dlp engine while keeping the Android integration, download management, interface, and application architecture fully open for inspection and improvement. The project is licensed under the MIT License.
