Udemy is an online education platform that connects teachers and students from all over the world to share knowledge. It allows instructors to develop online courses in specific areas in the form of videos, PowerPoint presentations, and more. And students can take the courses they need for free or purchase them.

However, not all Udemy courses are supported for download due to the download limitations of the platform. This article provides tutorials on how to record Udemy videos and download Udemy courses to address this situation. Please read on.

Part 1. How to Download Udemy Videos Officially on PC and Mobile

If you are wondering whether Udemy allows users to download its courses and videos, the answer is yes. However, Udemy videos can only be downloaded to your computer if the instructor has given permission. By default, the Udemy environment denies the download of the full course for privacy reasons. Students can access online lectures when the instructor has permission to do so. You can follow the steps below.

1.1 Download Udemy videos on Mac/PC

While listening to the lecture videos from the Udemy platform, you can place the cursor on the Gear icon at the bottom right of the screen and tap it to view the expanded option. You can see a "Download Lecture" option in the list. If you find this option is disabled, you can contact the instructor and ask if he can enable download permission. If yes, you can tap the button to start downloading a Udemy video, and it will store on your Mac or PC quickly. If the Udemy lecture is playing in a 720p resolution type, the download action saves a copy of a similar resolution type on your computer.

1.2 Download Udemy Videos for Offline on Mobile Devices

Udemy offers both Android and iOS app versions for users to view the courses on their mobile phones. Once you have completed the entire lecture video on the Udemy client, click and hold the "Download" icon in the top right corner of the screen (if the Udemy video is downloadable). From the pop-up message, click on the "Save for Offline" option to view the Udemy videos in offline mode. You can perform the same procedure to save your chosen Udemy course for offline viewing.
