How to Download Videos from Websites with Hams

Open a supported webpage in Hams and let the video load or start playing. When Hams finds a downloadable video, the download panel shows previews, file details, and available quality options.

Download Hams

Currently available on Google Play. An iOS version is in development.

Good fit for this task

  • The webpage contains a video you have permission to view.
  • The video has loaded or can play on the page.
  • You want to preview the item and quality before saving it.

Steps

  • Open the webpage in Hams.
  • Play the target video or wait for it to load.
  • Open the download panel.
  • Preview the item and choose an available quality.
  • Download it and track progress in the download center.

Limits

  • Hams does not support DRM, paywalls, private accounts, or sign-in gates.
  • Available quality depends on what the webpage provides.
  • If no download button appears, start with the guide for videos missing from the download panel.

FAQ

If a video plays, can Hams always download it?

No. Playback does not always mean the webpage provides a downloadable media file that Hams can find.
