YouTube Premium now lets you download videos in Full HD 1080p

Google decided to launch YouTube Premium as a response to all those subscription services that offered more advanced features for a monthly cost. The premium YouTube subscription does the exact same thing. It is the same space as the YouTube that we already know, but without and with the possibility of downloading videos or watching exclusive content. And precisely of the downloads we have news. Now the app allows you to download videos in Full HD 1080p.

Until now, if we wanted to download a video with YouTube Premium, we could do it in different resolutions.The lowest is 144p, followed by a medium resolution of 360p and the highest was HD 720p. Now, in compatible videos, we can download up to Full HD at 1080p. Of course, the l video must have this resolution option, otherwise the option will not appear Not to mention that our mobile also has to have a Full HD screen , otherwise it will not support such a high resolution. Unfortunately for 2K and 4K videos we will have to wait. The download function on YouTube has an option that allows us to set that download method as the main one. That is, if we select the 1080p resolution and click on the button that says 'remember my settings', all compatible videos will be downloaded with that resolution. In the event that the video does not support Full HD, it will do so with the highest resolution.

How to update YouTube Premium

This new option is coming to YouTube through an activation in the system.It seems that it is not necessary to update the app, but it is necessary to have the latest version available. Therefore, if you have an update pending on Google Play, it is best to install it. In iOS this option is also available The YouTube Premium subscription starts at 12 euros per month. This also includes YouTube Music, YouTube's streaming music service, which independently is priced at around 10 euros per month.
