I recently stumbled on Chan is Missing, a rare indie gem about to vanish from Tubi's library. Desperate to keep it, I needed a way to download Tubi movies offline, but hit a wall. Official downloads? None. Third-party tools? Either blocked by DRM or sketchy malware traps. Some even risk your account getting flagged.
After tons of trial and error, I cracked it. Turns out, grabbing Tubi to MP4s is possible on phones, PCs, you name it. If you're racing against Tubi's removal clock like I was, or just want to get back to the classic time while on a coming flight without Wi-Fi, here's what actually works.
Officially no. Tubi's licensing deals with movie studios are ad-based. Downloading would disrupt ads and copyright tracking. In 2024–2025, Tubi also increased their use of DRM (digital rights management), making most "old school" video download tools obsolete. This is why even Chrome plugins that worked last year now fail on most content.
Download movies and shows from Tubi in lossless 720p HD quality with AAC 2.0 audio and remove ads automatically for seamless offline watching.
StreamFab Tubi Downloader supports both Windows and Mac operating systems, and videos downloaded from Tubi via StreamFab are free of any time restrictions, allowing you to permanently save them and watch Tubi offline on your PC. Furthermore, the process is remarkably straightforward; as a new user, you can even download three Tubi movies at no cost!
While searching for relevant information, I came across a Reddit post where a user recommended using Seal to rip Tubi videos on Android devices. I attempted to download five videos; 1 was successful, while the other 4 failed, resulting in a rather high failure rate.
However, Seal is a free software, and if your need to download Tubi videos is not particularly frequent, I believe you might consider trying this application.
The operational steps are relatively straightforward, and the interface is remarkably clean. We recommend downloading the official installation package from GitHub.
Firstly, I would like to make it unequivocally clear that there is currently no iOS software available in the market that supports the downloading of Tubi videos. However, thinking it in another way, downloaded Tubi movies in MP4 or MKV files can be played on iPhones and iPads.
💡This can be an inspiration: you can use StreamFab Tubi Downloader on your computer, and then transfer the downloaded Tubi movies to iPhone or iPad. It sounds a bit inconvenient, but it is safe and feasible.
According to Tubi's Terms (July 2025): "You may not record, download, reproduce, distribute, or otherwise use content contained on or accessed via the Tubi Service except as expressly permitted by the Tubi Service."
Which means, all third-party downloaders, plugins, and even screen recorders technically break Tubi's policy.
In practice, private/personal use rarely draws attention, but sharing/ripping/posting videos can lead to legal takedowns.
Trying to download movies from Tubi in 2025 is harder than ever, but sometimes possible with the right tools, if you go in with your eyes open.
I keep this guide updated every quarter based on fresh tool reviews and community feedback. So, I'll investigate and include answers in the next update. You might also check r/cordcutters on Reddit and Quora video forums for the latest real-world tips.
