I tested over 35 different apps to choose the best MTV downloader. I found only two effective options, even though many advertised MTV support.

Best MTV Downloader

1. Video DownloadHelper

Video DownloadHelper is a one-of-a-kind media downloader that works as an extension within your browser. The revamped version of the app looks better and is easier to navigate and use.

To start, navigate to the video’s MTV webpage, play it, and click the Video DownloadHelper extension from the upper app drawer.

You can then click the download option button and select your desired quality – usually from 480p to 1080p but the options here will differ depending on the source and the video.

You can also set the preferred destination folder.

After selecting the quality, you can click the Download button and wait for the app to finish processing. As soon as it does, you’ll see the results below.

You can click Play directly from the extension to have it play in your default media player.

Pros

  • Very fast processing speed
  • Identifies almost every download link available
  • It can download multiple files at the same time
  • Intuitive interface
  • Improved navigation menus and design
  • Installs within the browser, so the extension is always one click away

Cons

  • Occasionally fails to identify download links
  • More download customization options would be a plus

2. CleverGet

CleverGet is the only other app that works as an MTV downloader. Although it doesn’t provide a streamlined option like the previous entry, it’s still viable.

You can paste your MTV link within the app and press Enter to open the respective webpage.

If CleverGet doesn’t identify the video link in the first step, you must wait for the video to load and then click the Retry button to scan for download links again.

Apart from MTV, the app supports various other platforms like Netflix, X (Twitter), Vimeo, TikTok, and more.

You can select the quality of your video and click Download to start the process. Afterward, you can view your files in the Library section or open the destination folder.

Pros

  • Downloads videos from numerous websites, including MTV
  • The download process is streamlined and allows you to retry scanning
  • Fast download speeds
  • Provides an easily-accessible downloads manager with the Library tab

Cons

  • The exact file size and quality information might occasionally be missing before download
  • Some occasional fails to identify links, even after using the Retry method
  • The interface looks outdated, even though the app was recently updated

It’s not legal to download content from MTV without proper authorization. I explored the platform’s Terms of Use document and two things are immediately clear:

  • MTV is very serious about copyright protection
  • You can’t download, modify, or distribute any content on the platform without permission.
