If you want to download Video from URL but don't want to store it on Gallery. following code works for me...

 func createDownloadTask(videoURL: String,index: Int) {
    let downloadRequest = NSMutableURLRequest(url: URL(string: videoURL)!)
    let session = URLSession(configuration: URLSessionConfiguration.default, delegate: self, delegateQueue: OperationQueue.main)
    self.downloadTask = session.downloadTask(with: downloadRequest as URLRequest, completionHandler: { (url, response, error) in
        print("asdasd")
        if error != nil{
            if super.reachability.connection == .none{
                self.showalert(msg: error?.localizedDescription ?? "")
            }else{
                self.downloadTask?.resume()
            }
        }

        guard let documentsDirectoryURL = FileManager.default.urls(for: .documentDirectory, in: .userDomainMask).first else { return }
        // create a deatination url with the server response suggested file name
        let destinationURL = documentsDirectoryURL.appendingPathComponent(response?.suggestedFilename ?? "")

        do {
            if url != nil{
            try FileManager.default.moveItem(at: url!, to: destinationURL)
            }

            }

        } catch { print(error) }

    })
    self.downloadTask!.resume()
}
