Export YouTube Playlist to Bookmarks

Paste a playlist link to download a bookmarks file with one bookmark per video, in a folder named after the playlist, ready to import into any browser.

How to export a YouTube playlist to bookmarks

  1. 01

    Paste the playlist link

    Copy the link of any public or unlisted playlist and press Export. Every video is read, however long the playlist is.

  2. 02

    Bookmark HTML is already ticked

    The bookmarks file always holds each video's title and link. Tick Leave out deleted and private videos to skip ones that no longer play.

  3. 03

    Download

    Press Download, then import the file from your browser's bookmarks or favorites menu.

Bookmarks that survive the playlist

The file uses the Netscape bookmarks format that every major browser reads and writes. It holds a single folder named after the playlist with one bookmark per video, titled with the video's name and pointing to its YouTube page.

Bookmarks keep working if the playlist is deleted, made private or reordered, and they sync to your phone along with the rest of your browser's bookmarks.
