    Use this method to download them:

    You don't need to use any additional software; you can download the videos in mp4 format directly from YouTube, which should work on your phone.

    Thanks, but am i missing something, as there is no direct link to download anything
    I just get a google search page with various options (1 or 2 I had already downloaded)

    I can't seem to download videos with the sound on :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:
    I've been trying various options now all night

    any more tips/advice thanks again

    Did you follow the instructions above?

    At what point do you get a Google search page?
