1.Download YouTube videos to Android via PC
Pros: The method is easier, and you can get the Android device compatible YouTube videos so that you can play the download videos normally.
Cons: You need a computer and a program as the aids, kind of boring.
For Firefox user, download the add-on Easy YouTube Video Downloader , which is a very easy add-on manager for firefox to let you download YouTube videos as FLV, 3GP, MP4, MP3 and even 720p HD and 1080p Full HD.
If you use Chrome or IE, then I would suggest you this free youtube downloader to download YouTube videos or audios directly to your Android phone, provide your Android phone is connected with the PC. This program is windows 8 compatible.
2.Download YouTube videos on web browser on Your Android device
Pros: You can directly download the YouTube videos on your Android device without any other things.
Cons: The downloaded YouTube video on the website may be not compatible with your Android device, and you may need to convert the video before watching it.
At the moment, the top YouTube download website includes: KeepVid, Zamzar, SaveYouTube, KeepTube.
- Open your Android web browser, and go to YouTube website.
- Search for and tap the video you want to download, choose Browser from the options that the mobile device will prompt you.

For Android app, I would like to suggest TubeMate for you, which has ever been the best free app before Google removed it. It not only lets you download YouTube videos in variety of video formats and resolutions or as MP3 files, but also it can be a full media player for your Android phone.
