About

Fetch Image

Read full description

Fetch Image is an open-source watchOS-only app for downloading images from URLs. In addition to downloading a single image, Fetch Image also supports batch downloading images from a webpage or an RSS feed. When given a URL to a webpage or an RSS feed, Fetch Image will match image URLs from the web content and download them all. A great use case is to go to a folder on your computer with many images and `python -m http.server` to serve the folder. Then you can download all images from the folder to your watch.
