Why ThumTool

Free, no signup, no ads

You don't need to sign up to grab a YouTube thumbnail. Most thumbnail downloaders bury the link behind interstitial ads.

Multi-resolution

Every resolution YouTube exposes for that video is listed: default, medium, high quality, standard, and maxres (when available).
