It's a bit hacky and out of reach to most casual users, but you can get YouTube-DL to work with Termux.

I have it set so that whenever I use the Termux share intent from another app, it use the shared URL and calls YouTube-DL with some parameters I want.

~/bin/termux-url-opener

    #!/bin/bash
    url=$1
    youtube-dl $url
~/.config/youtube-dl/config

    # Default Output Directory and Pattern
    -o /data/data/com.termux/files/home/storage/downloads/%(extractor_key)s/%(uploader)s/%(title)s-%(id)s.%(ext)s
