Overview

Start here if you want to install Youwee, make your first download, and learn which guide matches the task you want to do next.

Start Here

Youwee helps you download, organize, and work with online media from YouTube and many other supported sites. Use it when you want more control over quality, subtitles, export options, and follow-up actions after a download finishes.

Most users should begin with Installation, then Quick Start, then jump into the feature guide that matches the job at hand: YouTube downloads, Universal downloads, browser-to-app sending, subtitle editing, AI summary, data export, or library management.

If something goes wrong, the docs also cover dependencies, browser extension setup, subtitle workflows, and troubleshooting paths without requiring you to understand the app's internal architecture first.
