Full HD thumbnails in one click

Most videos have a max-resolution thumbnail at 1280×720. If the uploader's video doesn't have one, the next best size is shown first, so you always get the sharpest image available.

Every size, ready to download

Max resolution (1280×720), Standard (640×480), High (480×360), Medium (320×180) and Small (120×90). Each one has its own download button and saves as a JPG named after the video.

Works with Shorts and any link format

Normal watch links, youtu.be short links, Shorts, live and embed links all work. Use thumbnails you have the right to use, such as your own videos, or for reviews and commentary.
