Convert a Short in a few seconds

Copy the Short's link, paste it into the box above and tap a quality. The Short saves as an MP4 in its original 9:16 shape, so it fills your phone screen and is ready to watch offline or share.

Where to find the Shorts link

Quality and file size

Most Shorts are offered in 720p or 1080p. If the creator uploaded in lower quality, you'll see 360p or 480p instead, the same as on YouTube. Because Shorts are short, the files are small, usually between a few MB and about 30 MB.

Sound and music

The MP4 includes the Short's sound, including any music added in the app. Music in Shorts usually belongs to someone else, so keep the file for yourself and ask before posting it anywhere.

Want a normal video in Full HD? Use the 1080p converter or the main YouTube to MP4 converter.

Questions

Do Shorts convert in HD?

Yes, when the Short was uploaded in HD. Most are available in 720p or 1080p.

Does the Short stay vertical?

Yes. The MP4 keeps the 9:16 shape, so it looks the same as in the YouTube app.

Can I convert Shorts on my phone?

Yes. Open this page in Safari or Chrome, paste the link and tap a quality. On iPhone the file goes to the Files app, on Android to Downloads.

Why does my Short only show 360p?

The creator uploaded it in lower quality. We can only offer the qualities YouTube has.
