WizeTube
Watch YouTube offline, on your terms — without the algorithm running your day.
Future home: wizetube.app
YouTube is built to keep you scrolling.
Every recommendation is engineered for engagement, not for what you actually wanted to watch. Try to download a single video for the flight: blocked. Try to watch without ads: pay $14/month. Try to clip a 30-second segment for a podcast quote: not without third-party tools and 4 browser pop-ups. Even getting back to a video you watched last week takes three taps and an algorithmic detour.
A respectful YouTube layer.
WizeTube doesn't replace YouTube — it sits on top. Paste a link or browse via search, and WizeTube downloads, transcodes, and stores the video on your device for offline playback. Audio-only mode strips video to save storage when you're listening to a podcast or lecture.
No recommendation feed, no autoplay rabbit hole, no telemetry beaming back what you watched. Built-in clip tool lets you grab any 30-second segment with a transcript-aware crop. Subtitles in any language, downloaded once, playable forever.
True offline
Videos live on your device, playable without network. Transcoded to your preferred resolution to save space.
Audio-only mode
Strip video to save 95% of storage. Perfect for podcasts, lectures, and music — your battery thanks you.
No algorithm
Search to find what you want. No 'Up next', no autoplay, no recommendation feed engineered to keep you scrolling.
Clip tool
Pick a moment, set in/out points, export a 30-second clip with original audio. Transcript-aware so quotes land cleanly.
Multilingual subtitles
Download subtitles in any language YouTube provides — plus our own auto-translate to Hebrew, Russian, English. Saved with the video.
Zero telemetry
WizeTube doesn't track what you watched, doesn't sell your viewing data, doesn't ping home. Local-first.
