What file format will my downloads be saved in?

Downloads are planned to be saved as MP4 files. The extension is being developed to pull the original file at the best available quality without re-encoding.

How will multi-part meetings be handled?

Segmented recordings will be queued for sequential download. The extension aims to process each part in order so you won't need to manually combine files.

How will downloaded files be named?

Automatic file naming using the meeting title and date is intended. This is expected to help you build organized archives without manual renaming.

Will I need to enter my Zoom password?

No credential storage is planned. The extension is being built to use your existing browser session with Zoom, so you won't be asked to provide your password.

Can I see download progress while saving a recording?

Yes, a progress panel is being developed to display download speed, file size, and estimated time remaining. This will let you monitor the process easily.

Will I be able to pause a download and resume later?

Pause and resume controls are planned. The extension aims to give you bandwidth management during large downloads, so you can stop and continue as needed.

Can I get just the audio from a meeting recording?

An audio-only extraction option is being developed. This would save meeting audio as a separate file when video isn't needed, useful for review or note-taking.

Which browsers will the extension work on?

The extension is expected to work on Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Brave, and Opera. It is being built for cross-browser support across Windows, macOS, and Linux.

About Zoom Downloader

Cloud recordings have an expiration date. Whether hosts clean up old files or storage limits kick in, valuable meetings can vanish without warning. Zoom Downloader helps you take control by letting you save those recordings to your own hard drive.

Detect any cloud recording shared with you or listed in your Zoom web portal. The extension grabs the best available quality without re-encoding, so you get a clean MP4 file named with the meeting title and date. Multi‑part meetings are queued and downloaded in sequence, no manual stitching required.

Build a searchable archive of training sessions, client calls, and presentations. Review them offline whenever you need, and keep sensitive content private with fully local processing. It’s permanent access, on your terms.

Happy Users

Recent customer feedback

Short, practical feedback from people using Zoom Downloader in real workflows.

Saved our team's training library

Our team lost months of training recordings when our Zoom admin purged cloud storage. Now I download every important meeting the same day it happens. The auto-naming with meeting title and date makes searching easy.

Useful for consulting work

I consult for multiple clients and need to review calls before writing proposals. Being able to download shared recordings without bugging the host for the file is exactly what I needed.

Audio extraction is a great touch

The audio extraction feature is perfect. I pull meeting audio, drop it into transcription software, and have searchable notes within minutes. Much faster than re-watching entire calls.
