Perfect

I needed an app that allowed me to download local ai models to my 17 pro max when I’m away from my laptop. I tried other apps like this but they failed miserably and then came across this one. I got the 3 day free trial so I could use ‘Download in background’ and it works. The models downloaded completely while I was in a different app, transferred to laptop when I got home, loaded in lm studio and they worked without issue. I will be purchasing this when I get paycheck. Thank you for the minimal appearance and pro level download, you did an excellent job creating this app.

Not happy

Previously bought this app and all of a Sudden I am now required to pay a YEARLY OR MONTHLY subscription for it? If this is the case, refund me for the two times I bought this app. This just proves that buying an app doesn’t make it yours. This is disgusting and practises like this should have devs like this BANNED.

Really disappointed

Just from a strictly performance pov, easy to navigate, easy to download content, everything’s perfect… well not quite. Downloading content to the app is easy enough, but converting to an .mp4 (so you can download to your device), completely messed up the resolution! This is an app setting that’s been deliberately set and can’t be changed by users, even paying ones!

Excellent Service

DO NOT DOWNLOAD

Freezes your entire phone, touch screen, buttons, everything. It’s a scam. RUN. Had to connect it and securely delete it with my Mac without infecting my pc too

Advance file operations missing

This will be an amazing app if it had advance file operations like for quick organization, multiple file actions - airdrop etc. hope the creator updates.

Beautiful

💙❤️💯.🖤✔️

Scam

App crashes and won’t open. Whenever there’s an iOS upgrade this app will stop working. If you look, you’ll find a new similar app made by the same developer, resulting in you having to purchase it again. This app was my third time purchasing it. I’ve learnt my lesson, won’t purchase anything made by this developer.

No Problems so far

I love using this app

Disgusting devs have done it again!!

Like so many users here, I used to use the downloads app. I paid for it, and I used it without problems for years. I mean it had its issues, but it was a tried and tested part of my iPhone workflow. Then one day it stopped working due to an upcoming iPhone iOS upgrade, and lo and behold a new app appeared by the same developers. So I shelled out another £4.99 and here I am using that one for another few years. And now, out of nowhere, I’m told that I don’t have the right to make downloads (which I’ve been doing for years), without paying a new monthly subscription.
Of all the apps I use on the iPhone, this is the only organisation that does this. I genuinely don’t know how they get away with it, it’s not even funny, this is straight up, unscrupulous, unabashed robbery. I’m just amazed more app developers don’t do it. I suppose most of them have standards. I’ve always loved the app, I just can’t believe that somebody can be so greedy and immoral that they would destroyed the goodwill of their entire user base every few years because they are greedy and can get away with it.

note to self

didn’t work well as a downloads manager. but only tried once

Issue with videos it when to he to low resolution at the moment anyway to fix it ??

Not sure whats going on maybe ran out of space ? but it became the video quality is low what happened?

Needs zip compress option

This app has served me brilliantly down the years but now I’ve got one slight gripe- I wish it had the zip compress option for folders if I need to move files. I hope you add this option asap.

Крутая Закачка

Отличная закачка , прям супер

Good

Good

Descargas

Me gustaría que soportara las descargas en segundo plano para un uso más sencillo, pues hay que quedarse en la app hasta que se complete la descarga

Awesome

Best app if you know how to use it.
