Available for over 50+ most major OTT services video downloading & 1000+ common video sites downloads, including Netflix, Amazon, Disney+, YouTube, etc.
1. StreamFab Download Limits [Trial Period]
If a user is on the StreamFab free trial version, they are restricted to downloading only 3 videos from each VIP service within 30 days.
However, not all StreamFab services have limitations. As the exceptions, YouTube Downloader or YouTube to MP3 offers lower quality, but with infinite downloads available.
2. StreamFab Download Limits [Common]
StreamFab's subscribed users, regardless of which specific VIP service is used, are allowed to download up to 100 videos per day. Once the daily limit is reached, the quota will be refreshed until the next day.
Learning the boundaries is essential to avoid unexpected half tasks in queues awkwardly waiting while attempting to download numerous content, especially TV series. You can easily view the number of downloads left in your daily quota by simply navigating to any VIP page. The information will be displayed in the bottom right corner of the page.
So, before you decide to download another show, check this area to monitor the quota and plan all downloads accordingly. Knowing the daily usage at first would make your management of downloaded videos and download plans simple and efficient, allowing you to get the most out of your StreamFab subscription.
Why Does StreamFab Set Download Limit?
The obvious question after seeing these numbers is why the limits exist at all. On the surface it can feel restrictive, especially if you planned to queue up an entire season in one night. But the caps are not random. They’re part of a broader balance between user freedom, platform safety, and compliance with streaming services.
1. Managing technical load
The first main reason is to prevent the extreme server pressure of StreamFab. Imagine if individuals were allowed to download unlimited content per day, our download server could become congested. And the final result is everybody gets a slower download speed, which could affect all users' experience.
Thus, this limit is set to maintain smooth operation and to provide an equal opportunity for all users to utilize the software effectively.
2. Protecting streaming accounts
Streaming providers like Netflix and Disney+ monitor unusual behavior. If hundreds of titles are downloaded in a single burst, it looks very different from ordinary viewing patterns and may trigger account flags. By setting the daily and weekly caps, StreamFab keeps activity closer to what platforms expect from a regular subscriber. In other words, the limit is a safety net designed to lower the risk of your streaming account being suspended or banned.
By limiting the number of downloads, StreamFab Video Downloader makes the whole process act more normally to stay you under the radar and avoid streaming platforms flagging or banning my account for possible misuse.
3. Industry-wide practice
It’s worth noting that StreamFab is not unique in doing this. Other recording and downloading tools in the market also impose daily or weekly quotas, though the numbers vary. The idea is always the same: balance heavy users against system integrity and account safety. Community discussions frequently highlight this point: limits aren’t meant to punish, but to keep tools usable in the long run.
Can I Reset StreamFab Download Limits?
If you directly jumped to this part with eagerness, I'm sorry to say that the answer may not so cheer to you. In fact, the StreamFab download limits works with two overlapping counters:
- Daily reset: Each service’s 100-download cap refreshes once per new day. After the reset, the counter goes back to “100/100.”
- Weekly reset: The 700-per-week cap refreshes at the start of a new week. If you’ve reached the weekly ceiling, you won’t be able to start fresh downloads until the weekly cycle turns over.
By the way, caution that many users expect the reset to happen right at their local midnight, but that’s not always the case. The software staggers refresh times to prevent sudden “double-dipping”: downloading heavily just before and after midnight. In practice, the reset may feel like a rolling 24-hour clock rather than a strict calendar day cut-off. And sometimes the numbers don’t update on screen even though the new cycle has started. If you still see “0/100” after waiting, simply closing and reopening the app usually forces the counter to refresh. This is a display issue, not a delay in the reset itself.
Anyway, if you hit the daily or weekly limit, new tasks won’t start. They stay in the queue until the next reset. Nothing is lost, you just have to wait for the system to replenish the tokens before downloads resume.
As for the trial users, the download limits are limited to be a one-time deal with 3 downloads per service without any chance to be reset as well.

FAQs
1. Why can I only download three titles?
If you’re stopped after just three videos, you’re still on the trial version. The trial cap is 3 per platform over 30 days. The “100/100” you see in the app is the paid-user quota, but it doesn’t apply until you activate a license.
2. Can I manually reset the download limit?
No. The quota is system-controlled. It resets automatically in the next daily or weekly cycle. Reinstalling the app, switching devices, or logging into another account won’t bypass it.
3. Do limits on different platforms affect each other?
No. Quotas are per service. Hitting 100 downloads on Netflix doesn’t influence how many you can download from Prime Video or Disney+.
