YouTube videos are available offline, here is how you can watch them

when Google launched the Android One phones in India in September, it said it was taking a shot at an approach to make YouTube videos available offline. Basically, the plan was to allow users to download video when they had network for offLINE survey.

So how does it work and how can you save a YouTube video for offline viewing? Follow the steps:

• Update the YouTube app on your phone. This you can do by going to the Play Store app and then checking the YouTube app.

• Once you open the updated app, it will tell you that the support for offline viewing has been added.

• Under the videos available for offline viewing -- not all are available -- you will see an extra button to download them.

• Clicking on this button asks users about the resolution that want in the downloaded videos. 360P and 720P are available. 1080P is not available, at least at the moment. You can also set the default resolution. The lower resolution video consume less data as well as take less space on the internal storage.

• By default videos are downloaded when the phone is connected to a Wi-Fi network. But you can go into the YouTube Offline settings (it can be accessed from the slider menu on the left), you can change it.

• Once a video is downloaded, it is saved under Offline category. When the phone is connected to a network all YouTube categories are available. But when it has no data connection, only Offline category is available. You can click on any video saved in Offline category and it will play.
