HowTos.video

HowTos.video is a free learning library that turns everyday tasks into short, clear video guides. The idea is simple: when you need to fix something at home, try a craft, cook a new dish, care for a pet, or sort out a phone or computer problem, you should not have to dig through ten-minute videos and long blog posts to find one clear answer. We do that digging for you.

Every guide on HowTos.video pairs one carefully chosen YouTube tutorial with written steps that link to the exact moment in the video where each step happens. You can watch the whole thing, jump straight to the part you need, or follow the written steps at your own pace without watching at all. If a video rambles, our steps get you to the point.

The library spans 14 everyday topics: home DIY, crafts and sewing, cooking, gardening, pets, cars and bikes, beauty and style, fitness, outdoors and travel, money and office, computers and phones, apps and software, art and design, and school and learning. New guides are added daily, and every guide is checked by a person before it goes live.

HowTos.video is completely free. There is no account, no paywall, and no trial period. Open a guide, learn the task, get on with your day.

What problem it solves

Most how-to content online wastes your time: long videos with the answer buried in minute seven, or text tutorials with no visuals. People who just want to get one task done end up scrubbing through videos or bouncing between tabs.

Alternatives & competitors

Instead of searching YouTube yourself and guessing which tutorial is worth watching, HowTos.video hands you one vetted short tutorial per task plus written, time-linked steps - so the learning curve is minutes, not an evening.
