The fastest and most simple to use downloader in any app is in Monarch. Get your favorite videos, or extract the audio tracks only. Experience media downloads the way it always should have been.
Monarch is not responsible for any copyright infringements. If you do not own a copyright to a video, do not download it.
The Monarch Downloader acts as a powerful extension of your browser, allowing you to download the media you’re currently using without requiring you to install any Chrome extension or use the mouse, or even copy & paste a URL!

How to Download Videos

To download a video, simply go to the video in question, summon Monarch and run the “Download Video” command.

How to Extract Audio from Videos

To extract audio from a video, simply go to the video or audio track in question, summon Monarch and run the “Download Audio” command.

Where does my Downloaded Media Go?

As of Monarch v0.9.20 all downloads go to your standard Downloads folder (located in your home folder). There will be the option to easily change this in the future after the Monarch Downloader completes its experimental phase.

How to Cancel a Download

To cancel a download in progress, click the “x” in the center of the download indicator any time before the download completes. Please note that some files may be partially downloaded and leftover when you cancel.

Where do I copy and paste the URL?

You don’t. This is Monarch. Monarch is an app for simplifying things, not for doing them a certain way just because we’ve always done it that way. Thank you for understanding.
