Every download it asks to have access, why?

Standard Security Check: This is a standard macOS security measure. It appears because the app needs to access your browser's login tokens (Cookies) to verify your status.
What is being accessed? The app is NOT reading your actual account password. It is only requesting access to the "Safe Storage" key to decrypt your login sessions (Cookies) so you can download videos.
It is Safe: This process is local and secure. It ensures the app can interact with the platform without needing to store your raw login data.
How to proceed:
Enter Password: Type your Mac login password (the one you use to unlock your computer), not your YouTube password.
Select "Always Allow": We recommend clicking "Always Allow" so you won't be prompted again for future downloads.
Thanks!
