How it works

From share link to saved video in three steps

No account, no extension, no command line. Paste the link and the resolver prepares a clean, private download session at the original quality.

1

Paste the UC share link

Copy a UC Drive or UC Browser share link, or paste a direct MP4 URL. Folder links and single-file links both work.

2

Pick the video you want

The resolver lists every video in the share with its size, resolution, and duration. Use the filter to find a specific file quickly.

3

Download or preview

Save the original file with one click, or load it into the built-in MP4 player first. No app, account, or browser extension needed.

Why use this downloader

Built for UC Drive folders, not just single clips

Most downloaders stop at one file. This one understands folder shares, nested subfolders, and large video collections.

Whole-folder support

Open a shared UC Drive folder and get a clean list of every video inside, including nested subfolders.

Original quality

We hand you the original file from UC storage. No re-encoding, no watermarks, no quality loss.

Fast streaming

Downloads are streamed through Cloudflare's edge with range requests, so playback starts quickly.

Short-lived private links

Every download link is encrypted, bound to your connection, and expires automatically.

Built-in MP4 player

Preview a video before saving it. Seek, change speed, use picture-in-picture, or go fullscreen.

Works on any device

Use Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox, or any modern mobile browser. Nothing to install.

Supported links

Paste a share link, a folder link, or a direct video URL

The resolver accepts the formats below. If your link looks different, check the supported-links page for examples and error explanations.

Link type Example Notes
UC Drive share link https://drive.ucweb.com/s/a7c4e91b2d63 Folder or single-file shares hosted on UC Drive.
UC Share link https://uc-share.com/s/a7c4e91b2d63 Short share links created from the UC mobile app.
UC Drive link with locale https://drive.ucweb.com/s/a7c4e91b2d63?la=id Extra locale or tracking parameters are ignored safely.
Password-protected share https://drive.ucweb.com/s/a7c4e91b2d63?pwd=1234 The password is used only to unlock the share.
Direct MP4 video https://example.com/video.mp4 Direct MP4, MOV, M4V, WebM, and MKV links can be streamed or saved.
Signed cloud video https://media.example.com/clip.mp4?Expires=0&Signature=example Temporary signed video URLs are supported while the signature is valid.

Video containers the resolver can list

  • MP4
  • MOV
  • M4V
  • WebM
  • MKV
  • AVI
  • FLV
  • TS
  • 3GP
  • OGV

Browser playback depends on the codecs inside the file. MP4 with H.264 and AAC is the most compatible choice.

UC Drive guide

What is a UC Drive video downloader?

A short explanation of the technology, the limits, and the right way to use a share link.

What UC Video Downloader does

UC Drive is UCWeb's cloud storage service. When someone creates a public share link, the link itself grants read access to that share without a UC account. Our resolver reads the public share, lists the videos inside it, and prepares a short-lived private download session for the file you choose. The file is streamed through Cloudflare's edge, so your browser receives a normal download.

This is different from a screen recorder or a re-encoder. The original file is passed through unchanged. If the owner uploaded a 1080p MP4, you get that 1080p MP4. If the file is a MOV, you get the MOV.

Download UC Drive folders without an app

Folder shares are the reason this tool exists. Opening a folder on a phone gives you a list of files, but saving dozens of videos one by one is slow. Paste the folder link and the resolver walks the folder tree, including nested subfolders, then presents every video in a filterable list. You can sort by name or size, preview a file, and download only what you need.

There is no ZIP button, and that is deliberate. Building an archive would require downloading every file through the server, compressing it, and sending a second copy to you. That is slower, breaks resume support, and is impractical for multi-gigabyte videos. A one-file-at-a-time workflow is faster and more reliable. For very large collections, use the copy-link action and paste the links into a download manager that supports resume.

A UC Browser video downloader for every device

The interface is responsive and works in Chrome, Safari, Edge, Firefox, and other modern browsers. On iPhone, Safari saves downloads to the Files app. On Android, Chrome saves them to the Downloads folder. On a desktop, your browser's normal download manager takes over. Nothing needs to be installed, and no browser extension is required.

If you only want to watch a video, use the built-in MP4 player. It supports seeking, playback speed, picture-in-picture, and fullscreen. Local files can be opened directly in the player without being uploaded.

UC share link downloader with private, expiring links

Every download URL generated by this service is encrypted with AES-GCM, bound to the connection that resolved the share, and set to expire after about 45 minutes. The original media URL is never exposed to the browser. That makes the links unsuitable for hotlinking or long-term redistribution, which is exactly the point.

The service does not store downloaded videos, does not ask for your UC password, and does not re-encode files. Cloudflare may keep standard security logs such as IP address and request time, as explained in the privacy policy.

What this tool does not do

  • It cannot open private files that were never shared through a public link.
  • It does not download documents, photos, or archives. Only video files are supported.
  • It does not bypass passwords. For a protected share, you need the password from the owner.
  • It does not create a ZIP of a folder or bypass browser bulk-download limits.
  • It cannot download a video that UC has not finished processing.

Who it is for

Use it when a friend shares a folder of clips, when a course or community archive is distributed as a UC Drive link, or when you need to save a video you own to another device. Always respect copyright and the privacy of the people in the videos. A public link is not a license to redistribute content.

Quick answers

UC Video Downloader FAQ

The questions people ask before their first download.

What is UC Video Downloader?

UC Video Downloader is a free browser tool that reads public UC Drive and UC Browser share links, lists the videos inside them, and creates private expiring download links. It also includes an MP4 player so you can preview a file before saving it. The service is independent and is not affiliated with UCWeb.

Is UC Video Downloader really free?

Yes. There is no account, no payment, and no app to install. The service uses fair-use rate limits to stay available for everyone, so very large numbers of requests in a short time may be temporarily paused.

Do I need to log in to UC Drive?

No. Public share links work anonymously. Files that are private to a UC account and are not shared through a public link cannot be accessed, because the tool never asks for your UC password or cookies.

How do I download a video from a UC share link?

Copy the full share link, paste it into the search box, and click Download. After the resolver lists the files, choose a video and click its Download button. You can also click Play to preview it in the built-in MP4 player first.

Can I download an entire UC Drive folder?

Yes. Paste the folder share link and the tool lists every video it can access, including videos inside nested subfolders. Each file has its own download button. The tool does not build a ZIP archive, and browsers often block many automatic downloads, so save files one at a time or copy the links into a download manager.

Why does it say that no videos were found?

The share may contain only documents, images, or archives, the link may point to a subfolder without videos, or UC may not have finished preparing the video. Open the root folder link, check that the share is public, and try again.
