### 1/5 — Does not even see a movpkg file

*2026-02-21*

The title is the complaint. When I navigate to a folder with a movpkg file, the file name stays dimmed (gray). Good thing it was only $3.

### 4/5 — 便利！私にとってテレビの録画機能のような物です。

*2025-07-28*

観たい動画を通信環境の良い時に録画、あとでMP4ファイルで管理してまとめて見ることができます。

悪い点としては、録画ファイルとフォルダがうまくソートして並ばない点です、任意で並べら得れたら☆5ですね、とても気になる。

### 5/5 — 不再支持下载YouTube 4k了吗？

*2025-06-26*

Good

### 5/5 — Extremely useful

*2024-10-01*

This app is more than just a video interface player for streaming to and from anywhere. 

m3u8 index text files can be opened & fetched, parsed into .ts chunks compile complete video, and the best part, it can do all of those things and the convert the above to a mp4 video file and saved to files, photos, be exported, and more. 

It’s a simple app that preforms functions for downloading and also preforms some of the functions similar to ffmpeg. 

Yes it’s quite handy, and has parsed and converted every m3u8 index i’ve tried without crashing. It simply works for doing what what needs done for certain methods of web-streams.  Worth the one time purchase.

### 3/5 — 並び替え

*2024-09-02*

プライベートビデオ内にフォルダを作成して複数のビデオを移動させた後に並び替えを実行しても反映されない。
アルファベット順も数字も全て駄目で正しく並べ替えが出来ない。
修復お願いします。

### 1/5 — 真垃圾

*2024-08-23*

花了钱体验感真差，经常下载一半手机卡死

### 5/5 — It works.

*2024-05-07*

It works.

### 1/5 — 油猴脚本用不了别买

*2024-03-10, version 2.2.6*

油猴脚本用不了别买

### 5/5 — 太牛了，希望作者不断更新越来越好

*2023-12-02, version 2.2.6*

好用价格不贵

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work. Paid $3 for no reason

*2023-11-30*

Won’t download says it might be protected maybe or maybe the app developer doesn’t take issue with taking money and offering noting of value in return. Either way not work $1 let alone 3 move on if that’s what you’re hoping the app will do. It won’t.
