Save your first video.
Saving a video or audio file from a page takes about ten seconds. Here's how.
Pin Clipmoth to your toolbar
Click the puzzle-piece icon in the top-right of your browser, then the pin next to Clipmoth. It then stays in your toolbar.
Extensions → pin ClipmothPlay a video on any page
Open a page with a video or audio and start playing it. Clipmoth detects the media, and the icon shows a badge with the number it found.
Open Clipmoth and click Save
Click the toolbar icon (or open it in the side panel to keep it open), pick the file, and click Save. The file is saved as the site serves it: no watermark, no re-encoding.
Tip: open it in the side panelThe badge appears a moment after the clip starts playing. The file is saved to Downloads/Clipmoth.
Try it on this page
Play the clip. A badge appears on the Clipmoth icon in your toolbar. Open Clipmoth (from the toolbar or the side panel) and click Save.
Four practice pages, one for each kind of site
Most sites deliver video in one of a few ways. Each lesson is a made-up site that works like one of them. Each takes under a minute.
Start with Lesson 1Where the extension can't help
YouTube is off-limits for extensions under Chrome Web Store rules. Some big platforms deliver video in a way an extension can't see. DRM-protected services can't be saved by any tool. These are limits, not bugs. The guide lists, site by site, what works in the extension, what needs the Windows app, and what no tool can save.
See the site compatibility guideNo daily limit for 30 days
For the next 30 days there is no daily limit. After that, 10 downloads a day stay free. Removing the limit for good is a one-time $9.99, with no subscription.
