### 1/5 — Не працює

*2026-01-16, version 2025.7*

Гамвно софт

### 1/5 — Nags you for IAP to do pretty much anything; just use the web interface

*2025-05-20*

I downloaded this considering the lifetime license as I don't rent software, but I found the constant "this is a premium/ultra feature" pop-ups so off-putting that I felt I had to write a review. The list of what you can do is far shorter than what you can't: you can view your queue, pause/resume it (but not individual items, apparently even if you pay for it), view RSS feeds (but not fetch them) and search for NZBs. That's all, and what's worse is that it doesn't even work well — it barely actually controls nzbget, it seems the developer's attention was mostly focused on developing "premium" features like notifications.

A developer needs to prove their product is worth buying before I'm willing to buy it; this doesn't even come close. I will just use nzbget's web interface instead, it works very well in Safari and has more functionality in controlling nzbget, which this app purports to do. You have to subscribe for notifications — you don't get them if you purchase "premium" — which was my main interest for this, so not having them (even if I had bought it!) changes nothing for me.

**Developer response:** Hey,

Thanks for your feedback, Premium is a one-time, lifetime purchase for a very cheap price that unlocks pretty much everything in the app. Push notifications are a subscription as I have to pay for hosting servers to send the notifications, I also priced it as a really cheap yearly subscription that doesn't currently cover the cost of hosting.

It's been a long time since I looked at the free version of the app (the app is 10 years old now), so I'll take another look at the free version of the app and see if I can make the free feature set fairer.

Kind regards
Andy

### 2/5 — Paramètrage

*2025-01-22*

Comment on le paramètre il me met error à chaque tentative 😞

### 5/5 — Very handy

*2024-02-08*

This has been a very handy app for when Im sitting on the couch and have a random idea to download. Super simple, seems to be update frequently and it works.

### 4/5 — ClientID/Secret via HTTP Header

*2024-01-07, version 2023.6*

Hey. I've got a feature request. I'd love to add an additional layer of security to my selfhosted services so it would be awesome if you could implement ClientID/Secret HTTP Header support in your app.

### 4/5 — Works great!

*2023-11-22, version 2023.6*

Love this app but I was wondering if it could be better to also support Sabnzbd as well given that nzbget is now abandoned. Is this possible to support sab also?

### 1/5 — Removed a lot of features unless you pay for them

*2023-11-16*

This app used to have many functions, such as pausing, that have been removed in favor of a new “premium” subscription model. They didn’t add any value to the app, they just took away its existing functions. It’s one of the most spineless moves I’ve seen on the App Store. Garbage company, garbage support, and predatory pricing. Don’t support these people. They wouldn’t support you.

### 5/5 — Der beste NZB Client

*2023-09-25, version 2023.2*

Läuft einwandfrei, schnell und ohne viele Schnörkel. Selten so gut funktionierende Software erlebt. Ein großes Lob an den Entwickler!

### 5/5 — Widget

*2023-09-20, version 2023.2*

Great app, very good at doing what you would expect. 
Question for the dev, is there a plan to add widgets to home screeen rather than slide over?

### 1/5 — Blödsinn

*2022-08-24, version 2022.5*

Wer glaubt, mit einem gültigen Usenext Account Zugang zu einem Client zu haben, liegt hier falsch. 
Hier funktioniert gar nichts….

### 2026.1 — 2026-03-13

# Massive Update
This update celebrates 10 years of NZBClient, thanks to all the amazing users who have supported this app over the last decade.

A lot of the code in the app is 10 years or older so this year I'm working on a complete re-write of the app to modernise it and add more features.

This update is also designed from the ground up to work with the new NZBGet.com, the new actively maintained version of NZBGet.

This update is the first step in that journey. This is a big update and it may cause some issues (like changing a car tyre while driving down the highway), so please report any issues or feedback to me via the contact form on the website so I can get them fixed ASAP.

# Pro and Ultra Changes
Part of this update is changing how Pro and Ultra features are locked behind a paywall. There were a lot of basic features of the app that required Pro or Ultra to use, and this was too restrictive.

I've changed the policy for what is locked behind the paywall. Now, any feature that is in the NZBGet web interface will be available in the app for all users, and only additional features that are exclusive to this app will be for Pro or Ultra users.

# What's New

## All New History
This update has a complete re-write of the history and history details page. It's designed to mirror more closely the NZBGet web interface, with a bunch of improvements.

### Improved Searching and Filtering
The new history page has improved searching and filtering of downloads, making it easier to find and edit items in your history.

### AI Error Summaries
When viewing a history item that has failed for some reason, the app will use Apple's Foundation AI model to summarise the error logs so you can quickly see what the issue was (only available for devices that support Apple Intelligence and Pro or Ultra users).

### Suggestions
When renaming or setting a dupe key, the app will now give you quick suggestions for the best name or key.

### Logs
Improved log browsing including filtering and searching.

## Files
Files now has an NZB Inspector that allows you to inspect all aspects of the NZB, including where it was downloaded from (if available) and NZB comments.

## Servers
There is an all new server details page so you can inspect all aspects of your NZBGet server including disk space, news servers, system info and logs.

### NZBGet Version Tracking
When viewing your NZBGet details, the app will alert you to new versions and show you the release notes.
Ultra users will get push notifications for all new NZBGet versions.

### Adding & Editing NZBGet Servers
All new adding and editing NZBGet servers page, that makes it easier to add new servers with improved error handling.

### Custom Headers
You can now set custom headers for servers. This is useful when using reverse proxies and you want to set custom auth headers.

# Bug Fixes
There are a bunch of bug fixes and security improvements in the app.

If you are having any issues please contact me ASAP via my web form so I can fix them — I'm expecting some bumps along the way.

Cheers
Andy
