It was a dark day for One Tap Tools. A day of mourning. The day that YouTube killed the Android Player API. That's the secret sauce we (and many others) used to download YouTube videos. We thought we were done for....
This issue was not caused by the deprecation of the Android Player API. We did it to ourselves. Read about our blunder here...
It's a day of mourning....
We're happy to announce that the Twitter video downloader is back up and running again! It took us a bit longer than expected to push out this fix, but we're finally there.
Twitter no longer returns the 'x-guest-token' when you make a request to any random twitter.com page. They now require you to make a POST request to api.twitter.com/1....
We've just moved our blog from the front page to its own dedicated page. This may seem like a small change, and that's because it is.
Moving the blog to its own page allows us to keep the focus on the video downloader tool, making it easier for users to find what they need without any distractions. Plus, we're planning to build out the blog section even more with new content and flesh it out more.
Overall, we're happy to be giving the blog a proper home and improve the video downloader experience. Stay tuned for more updates and improvements coming soon!

Hey, have you used our video downloader? It just got a lot better!
One of our users let us know that sometimes they were getting errors while trying to download videos from YouTube. That can be super frustrating, especially if you're trying to download something you really want to watch or share. So we put our heads together and figured out how to minimize those error alerts. And now? Way fewer people are seeing those pesky error messages!
We also noticed that sometimes people were getting weird little files instead of the actual video they wanted when downloading from Twitter. That's no good! So we looked into it and realized that our code wasn't quite up to snuff. But don't worry, we fixed it! Now the algorithm serves the highest quality resolution for the given Twitter URL, so you're (almost ;)) guaranteed to get the video you wanted....
Take our word for it: we understand how frustrating it can be to have multiple videos with the same name floating around in your downloads folder. my-video(1).mp4 and my-video(2).mp4 aren't looking so hot. On our machines, we were getting close to my-video(20).mp4....
We're excited to announce that we now support downloading videos from Twitter! We understand the frustration of finding an interesting tweet with a video and not being able to easily save it for later. That's why we worked hard to add support for Twitter videos, making it easier for you to keep your favorite content at your fingertips.
We faced some challenges during the development process, but we persevered and ultimately found a solution that we believe adds tremendous value to our service. Whether it's a funny meme or an informative clip, you can now easily save and access the content that matters most to you.
We're excited to continue improving our video downloader and providing you with the best possible experience. Stay tuned for more updates and new features in the future!

A famous racecar driver once said: "Speed. I am Speed". And with our lightning(McQueen)-fast video downloader, you too can be speed, as you download your favorite YouTube videos and Shorts in record time.
Thanks to our hard work, we've sped the download speed up over 10,000x (yes, that fast) you won't have to wait around like a slow and rusty old tow truck.
So why settle for a sluggish download speed when you can have lightning(McQueen)-fast downloads with our video downloader? Put the pedal to the (Piston Cup) metal and start downloading!

At One Touch Tools, we like to build things even our grandmothers can use. That means a service that is trustworthy and simple.
Trust is hard to come by, especially on the internet. As we said, we build things with Grandma in mind. That means no redirects to sketchy websites, no overly obtrusive ads, and total transparency.
Speaking of transparency, let's talk about how One Touch Tools operates....
