How do I download a YouTube banner?

Paste the channel link and select Get images. Under Banner, choose Full banner for the whole image, or Desktop or Mobile for the part YouTube shows on each screen, and select Download.

What size is a YouTube banner?

YouTube asks for a 2560 x 1440 image. Computers show a wide strip from the middle, and phones show a smaller area in the center, about 1546 x 423 of the full image. Many banners are stored at 2048 x 1152, and the tool shows the real size of each one.

What size is a YouTube profile picture?

YouTube recommends 800 x 800 pixels, shown as a circle. The Original option downloads the largest version YouTube has, which is often larger than 800 x 800.

Can I use a channel link or only a video link?

Both. Paste a channel link such as youtube.com/@name, youtube.com/channel/ or youtube.com/c/, or a link to any video, and the tool finds the channel that uploaded it.

Which format should I choose?

PNG keeps every detail and is best for editing. JPG works in every app. WebP gives the smallest file at the same quality, which is good for websites.

Is the YouTube banner downloader free?

Yes. You can download profile pictures and banners in every size for free, with no sign-up and no watermark.

Can I reuse another channel's banner or logo?

Channel images belong to their owners. Use them for reference, reviews or with permission, and do not present another channel's logo or banner as your own.

Guide

How YouTube shows a channel banner

A channel banner is uploaded as one large image, ideally 2560 x 1440 pixels. YouTube never shows all of it on a phone or computer. Computers show a wide strip across the middle, and phones and tablets show a smaller area in the center, which YouTube calls the safe area.

That is why this tool offers three banner versions. The full banner is the file the creator uploaded, which is the one to use as a template for your own design. The desktop and mobile versions are exactly what viewers see on each screen.

Tips for your own channel

Keep text and logos inside the center 1546 x 423 area so they show on every screen.
Upload the profile picture as a square of at least 800 x 800. YouTube crops it to a circle.
Use PNG for logos with sharp edges and text, and JPG for photos.
