How to extract audio from YouTube with YouTube Music
If you are looking for a way to extract audio from YouTube and save the songs on your smartphone and if you are willing to shell out some money to do this, you can't find a better solution than YouTube Music.
In case you have never heard of it, it is the music streaming service offered by Google itself which, in addition to allowing access to songs also available on services such as Spotify, Apple Music and Amazon Music, also allows access to mixes and unofficial music videos that are only featured on YouTube.
It can be used via the app for Android and iOS / iPadOS and allows you to download offline songs of the songs on YouTube and listen to them, even in the background, in audio-only mode. It is also usable from a computer, through the Web version accessible from the browser, but the download of the contents is only allowed from mobile.
Basically it is free, but in this case only streaming listening is allowed and advertisements are provided, while subscribing to the Premium version, which costs 9,99 euros / month individually or 14,99 euros / month by choosing the family plan usable by 6 people (in both cases a free trial period is offered), the aforementioned limitations can be broken down.
That said, to use YouTube Music to download the songs you are interested in, install and open the app of the service on your device, then start the YouTube Music free trial period by following the instructions on the screen (if you have already used it in the past, you will have to subscribe directly to the subscription) and as I explained to you also in my specific guide on the subject.
