Hello Product Hunters 👋 @chrismessina Thank you so much for hunting us! 💙 🇺🇦 We are a software company from Ukraine and most of our team is based here. As you know our country now is in a state of active resistance to Russian aggression, but we at Softorino — are staying strong and keep on developing new products. 📜 The Story 7 years ago we developed the very first Softorino YouTube Converter. Back then, we simply wanted to mix the technology we created in our WALTR app and deliver an app for a wider audience. The original idea behind SYC was to make it a handy tool to get YouTube vids and music on your iPhone. But most importantly, make it fast & almost effortless. So far, it’s been downloaded by millions of users worldwide. Today, we are extremely thrilled to launch SYC PRO for Mac – the third iteration of SYC, which is 6x faster, better looking, and includes more “PRO” control over your downloads. 🟠 What’s SYC PRO? In short, SYC PRO makes it super easy to download YouTube videos as MP4 or MP3 to your Mac, iPhone, or iPad. Just copy, click, and download! Here is what’s new in SYC PRO version: 💻 Completely reimagined interface which makes it look “right at home” on your Mac. 🏎 Improved download speed. SYC PRO downloads content 6 times faster compared to SYC 2. ⚙️ Edit Metadata & artwork. Now you can build a beautiful video or music library. 📂 Custom “Favorites” folder feature. This allows setting your Android SD card as a permanent destination for your downloads. 👩‍💻 Apple Music/TV.app support. Download directly into the Apple Music/TV, and playback on any iCloud-enabled devices (i.e. HomePod) 🎶 Better playlist support. You can download entire playlists. ⏯️ Improved subtitles download, even auto-generated And how are we different from browser add-ons/youtube-dl/websites that do the same? There are 2 things that make this app really stand out from the overloaded competition: 1. You only have to copy the URL and the converter will do the rest 2. It's the World’s 1st desktop class application to get YouTube videos & music directly into iPhone, iPad & iPod. ☝️ Btw, our first SYC has become 1st product of the day on PH. And with our new SYC PRO, we want YOU, the PH community, to try it out and let us know your honest feedback. Any feature requests are also very welcome! 
 P.S. As many have said about youtube-dl, "it's projects like these that are perfect when you're on flaky wifi and don't want to get stuck buffering every three seconds". And that's what we did here. Unlike 1000s of other same utilities, Softorino YouTube Converter has a unique capability – it pushes YT, SoundCloud, Vimeo videos, directly to iPhone (without any iOS 3rd party software) – this makes it really stand out.' In short.. this is perfect for downloading videos for plane trips & subway rides! 👍🏻 🎉 Till September 30th we're giving 60% OFF to celebrate the launch of SYC PRO!

@joshsoftorino thanks for the great release! Meta Tag editing feature is the one I was waiting for a very long time. Cheers!

I personally use Softorino YouTube Converter (as well as other Softorino products). It's my preferred way to download videos from streaming services, when I plan to stay offline for a while. It's well designed and easy to use. Recommend!

So my story is I have this old iPad I use for in-car entertainment for my kid, and before I would hook it up to my phone's hotspot for an internet connection. It's a pain because the iPad is so old that it does not get the YouTube app anymore, and it takes forever to open the site in Safari. With SYC, I can simply grab some videos and put them in VLC on the iPad and I'm good to go. Big lifesaver!

I use this app. It's especially cool that you can download your entire YouTube playlist. This allows listening music on the road while driving without ads and internet connection.

Very nice product! Very productive …

Hey, Product Hunters 👋 We did our best to make downloading from YouTube as simple as possible. Now you can download any YouTube video to any Apple device and even Android. No 3rd party software is needed :) Your feedback on the new SYC PRO app will be priceless for us ❤️. Let us know what you think in the comments!

I’ve been using this for a while, it’s far superior to SYC2 and definitely intended for the pro audience. This is a fast indispensable tool I regularly use in my business (as a video editor). I’ve tried others like iTube (which is ridiculously slow), and SYC is THE best.

Works like magic! Perfect for both macOS and Windows.

It’s really good app I use it to download video from my old YouTube channel that I lost access and getting some old music I can’t find anywhere but on YouTube . While I personally using their others app I bought with universal license too like WALTR to sync my iPods with Mac much more easier than via apple files.

Easily without a doubt in my mind the best YouTube conversion tool on the market. This company is actually the only one that makes the best softwares for a price that is definitely worth it. Even if you don’t need to use their software that often but just once in a while it’s still worth it because of how simple they make it. A++ for sure!

Dear PH community, happy to introduce to you our new version of YouTube Downloader! 📲 Please note that SYC PRO supports all iOs devices Apple has ever created! And now you could download YouTube Shorts and videos from Facebook (very soon)! 🤗 I enjoy how simple it is! You only need to find the content you want to use. You don’t need any extra moves to transfer video or music, because SYC PRO automatically sees your iPhone or iPod via Wi-Fi!

Softorino products are of high quality and YouTube Converter PRO is no exception. It works very fast and the results are excellent. Best wishes to the team behind Softorino and may they continue to develop good new software! 👌

I have the MacOS version. It's kind of amazing how fast this app downloads YouTube videos. I've tried a lot of desktop video downloaders and I am most impressed with SYC Pro. It seems like they've thought about everything I want in terms of functionality and interface. (It does look very "at home" with MacOS.) Admitedly I'm not a power user downloading a lot of huge video files - I only occasionally download a few videos of 3 to 5 minutes in length and convert the audio track to AAC or MP3. But SYC Pro certainly delivers on that reliably. And it's nice to know there's even more functionality there if I need it. Highly reccomend.

I've used a few YouTube capture programs, but softorino has taken the elegance they bring to all of their applications and applied it to the best product out there to grab YouTube audio and video. I'm primarily a Windows user, and it works flawlessly on my Windows 11 system. I generally save the files to my PC. Works great. If you don't know the suite of products by this company, check them out! If you use iPhone and Windows together, their tools will make your life easier, and if you are just an Apple user, their software looks like it was designed by Apple.

This looks amazing. Great launch! 🎉

It's one of my favorite app from Softorino, that I use on a daily basis. Great!

Simply the best! I use it all the time and it works flawlessly

I've been using syc pro and it's previous versions for over a year and I love it. Simple to use and reliable.

WOOOOOW! Congrats @joshsoftorino and the team! Have been using it for a while, Metadata & artwork editing feels like it was always there, still need to test Apple TV-homepod exports ;)
