Frequently asked questions
Is this free?+
Yes, completely free with no sign-up.
Does this work for Shorts?+
Yes — Shorts, live, and regular video URLs are all supported.
Can I download HD or Max Resolution thumbnails?+
Yes, whenever the video provides them. Not every video has a Max Resolution thumbnail, so only the sizes that actually exist are shown.
Do you store my video links?+
No. Everything happens in your browser — the link is never sent to a server, logged, or tracked.
Do I need an API key?+
No. This works entirely from YouTube’s public thumbnail image URLs and its oEmbed endpoint — no key or login required.
