Great app, and responsive developer

Have used this app on all my devices including iOS and Mac. I use it to send links for downloads of Tiktok’s and Twitter (X)… entire process is automated in the sense that Transloader takes care of th download remotely - whilst i’m browsing away on my iPhone or 2nd Mac. It just works!

I had an issue with the latest MacOS update not updating either automatically or manually when downloaded from website - au emailed Matthias - the developer - the issue was fixed and responded to my email in minutes.

Keep up the great work, love this app.

Hervorragende App

Ich mag diese App sehr. Sie hat einen neumodischen Look und funktioniert auch perfekt. Einziges Kriterium sind ein Website Scraper und ein Account Manager für gewisse Seiten. Ich weiß es gibt das Login-Cookie Feature aber manche Seiten unterstützen einen einfachen Login über deren API Schnittstelle. Der Website Scraper ist eher das was ich suche, als Vergleich ist JDownloader2 genannt. Dies durchsucht die Website und findet, sortiert alle möglichen Dateien. Sonst super App weiter so!

Very useful

Great app with quick download speeds. I find it particularly useful when I have third party MacOS apps i want to download but I am away from my MacBook (I just copy the zip or pkg download link into Transloader)

This dev right here Officer

Makes this app free but then has the cast iron stones to charge $20 for the Mac version, rendering this app useless - something Hyperduck does for free. I would have paid if it were upfront about it but I’m so sick of these draw-string scum sacks deliberately misleading in attempts to manipulate people.

Response from developer

Hi Zenicero, Thank you for your feedback on Transloader. About being misleading and not being upfront: In the iOS version's App description, I write: "Requirements: The Mac app, available for purchase on the Mac App Store". I also inform users that there's a free trial for the Mac version available on my website. I think I am being upfront about this. About the Mac app costing money, iOS being free: I don't want anyone to waste their money on an app they can't use because they don't have a Mac, so, because the main part of Transloader is a Mac app (the one downloading stuff), it's the one I charge for. The iOS app is free, because I can not know if a user downloading the iOS app actually has a Mac. To avoid having users purchase the iOS app, only to find they need a Mac on the other side they might not have, I charge for the Mac app instead, and the iOS app is free. So if they get the iOS app (for free), and then notice they need a Mac (they don't have), they didn't lose any money. If they do have Mac, they are free to purchase the Mac app, or not. I take it you didn't purchase the Mac app, either, so you didn't lose any money there. The system works. I think it's the right way to do this. With kind regards, - Matthias, the draw-string scum sack, deliberately protecting people from making useless purchases.
