I was going to suggest yt-dlp, but this seems to be for android... right? In that case, I don't know if yt-dlp works there.
Anyway, for those on PCs, you can use
yt-dlp "PLAYLIST_URL".Some useful options:
--download-archive videos.txt: this will keep track of downloaded files in case you want to interrupt an continue later. You can change the filenamevideos.txtto whatever you want.-R infinite --file-access-retries infinite --fragment-retries infinite --retry-sleep http:exp=1:20 --retry-sleep fragment:exp=1:20 --retry-sleep file_access:exp=1:20 --retry-sleep extractor:exp=1:20: infinite retries for different error types, for those with unreliable connections.-o "%%(playlist_index)s - %%(title)s.%%(id)s.%%(ext)s": output file format--cookies cookies.txt: if it's a private list, you will need to provide your (yt-logged-in-)browser cookies. See cookies.txt add-on.Using Termux you can get yt-dlp installed and running on Android
Installing yt-dlp is a little more finicky than just installing the pip module within Termux, but I was able to use this to get it set up:

I actually used pipx to get yt-dlp into Termux.
At least that's how it worked for me
