Step-by-step
- 1
Open your YouTube Music playlist in a browser
On your computer or phone, open YouTube Music in Chrome, Edge, Firefox, Safari, or any modern browser. Sign in if the playlist is private to your account. Open the playlist page so every track is visible in the list. You can also use the regular YouTube site if your playlist lives there.

Copy each video URL from the playlist
Click the first track, let it open its watch page, then copy the URL from the address bar. Go back to the playlist, click the next track, copy its URL, and repeat. Drop each link on its own line in a notes app or a text file. Stop at 30 links, which is the Savevids bulk limit per run.

Open savevidsapp.com and pick bulk mode
Head to savevidsapp.com in the same browser. Click the bulk tile on the home screen, or open the bulk downloader page directly. The bulk input box accepts up to 30 links in one paste, one per line. No app, no install, no sign-up.

Paste all links and pick a format
Paste your entire list of video URLs into the bulk input box. Pick MP3 if you only want audio for your music playlist, or MP4 if you want video for some tracks. Click Download once and Savevids reads every link the same way the YouTube web player does, then queues each file.

Save every track to your device
Savevids processes the queue and each file lands in your Downloads folder in sequence. On a phone, the files land in your Files app. On a desktop, they land in your Downloads folder. The files play in any media player, with the original quality YouTube served to its web player.
Can I download my YouTube Music playlist?
Yes, with a bulk downloader like Savevids. The trick is that YouTube Music does not expose a single playlist URL that hands back every track. Each song in a playlist is its own watch page, which is why the workflow is to copy each video URL and feed them all to Savevids in one paste. Up to 30 links per run, which covers most playlists in a single batch.
If your playlist is longer than 30 tracks, run two batches. The same flow handles the second batch the same way. The bulk input box does not care about the order of links, but you can paste them in playlist order if you want the saved files to arrive in the same sequence as the original playlist.
This approach also answers how to download a playlist from YouTube Music when the playlist is private. Sign in to YouTube Music in your browser, open the private playlist, and copy each track URL the same way. Savevids only needs the URL of a video that plays in your browser, so private playlists work as long as you can view them.
- Each track is its own watch page, not a single playlist URL
- Up to 30 links per bulk run on Savevids
- Run multiple batches for playlists longer than 30
- Private playlists work if you can view them in your browser
- Order does not matter, but paste in playlist order for sequence
How to download a music playlist from YouTube to MP3
If you only want the audio, pick MP3 in the Savevids bulk mode. The tool reads each video URL the same way the YouTube web player does, extracts the audio track, and hands you a clean MP3 for each song. No re-encoding, no quality loss beyond what YouTube already compressed, and no extra processing time.
This is the right path for a music playlist where the video is irrelevant. The MP3 files land in your Downloads folder with the original song title in the filename, which makes them easy to rename, sort, and drop into a media player or a phone music library.
If you want video for some tracks and audio for others, run two batches. One batch with MP4 for the tracks where the video matters, one batch with MP3 for the rest. The bulk input box accepts the same link list, so the workflow is paste, download, swap format, paste again, download.
- Pick MP3 in Savevids bulk mode for audio-only
- MP3 files land with the original song title in the filename
- No re-encoding, no quality loss beyond YouTube compression
- Run two batches if you want MP4 for some and MP3 for others
- Original quality YouTube served to its web player
What you can download with Savevids bulk mode
Savevids bulk mode accepts up to 30 video links in one paste across the supported platforms. That includes YouTube, YouTube Music, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, and Pinterest. For YouTube Music playlists, every track is a YouTube video under the hood, so the same bulk flow handles them.
There are a few hard limits per link. Age-restricted videos, members-only uploads, private videos, and premiere videos that have not finished premiering will not work, because YouTube gates them at the source. If a video plays in an incognito window without signing in, it works in Savevids.
- Up to 30 video links per bulk run
- YouTube, YouTube Music, TikTok, Instagram, Facebook, Pinterest
- MP3 audio or MP4 video per link
- No age-restricted, no members-only, no private videos
- Works in any modern browser, no install
Troubleshooting YouTube Music playlist downloads
Most failures trace back to the link list. Re-copy each URL from the address bar of the watch page, not the share-sheet short link, because the short link sometimes redirects in a way the parser does not follow. If one link in the batch fails, the rest still download, so you can re-run the failed link on its own.
Age-restricted tracks, members-only uploads, and private videos will not work, because YouTube gates them behind a sign-in. Premiere videos only download after the premiere finishes. For brand new uploads, give YouTube a few minutes to finish processing all resolutions, then try again.
On a slow or shared network, a 30-link batch can take a while. Run smaller batches of 10 if your connection is unstable. If a file stalls, refresh the page and re-run that link on its own. The MP3 and MP4 files are the same files YouTube served to its own player, so they are safe to open.
- Re-copy URLs from the address bar, not the share sheet
- Failed links do not block the rest of the batch
- Skip age-restricted, members-only, and private videos
- Wait a few minutes for brand new uploads to process
- Run smaller batches of 10 on slow connections
