Save YouTube videos on iPhone
VidPS parses public YouTube links in your iPhone browser so you can pick MP4 or MP3. Unlike Android, iOS often will not show a direct save sheet — use Documents by Readdle or Save to Files after downloading.
Full steps: /help/download-on-iphone. Only 360p available? See /help/why-only-360p for source quality and region issues.

Good to know before you start
Can iPhone download YouTube directly?+
Safari often cannot save files directly. Use Documents’ browser with VidPS or follow /help/download-on-iphone.
VidPS fails inside WeChat?+
Use Open in Safari from the menu, then retry.
Can I get MP3 on iPhone?+
Yes — pick MP3 in the audio section after parsing; conversion takes a moment.
Why only 360p?+
Usually the source has no HD or your region is restricted. Read /help/why-only-360p and confirm 720p+ in the YouTube player.
Different from Android?+
Same parsing; different save steps. Android: /help/download-on-android.
