02Features
Thirteen moments from the film, in the order you’d use them. Keep scrolling — each one plays in turn.
CH 01Paste a link0:39
Copy a link and press Ctrl+V. The app reads it straight away and lists every resolution with its file size, highest first.
CH 02Format, MP3, clip range0:53
MP4, MKV or MOV. Audio only as MP3 from 128 to 320 kbps. Or tick “Download only part of this video”, type a start and an end, and only that stretch downloads.
CH 03Multi-link queue1:06
Paste several links at once and each one stacks as a card. A playlist or channel link stacks every video, up to 300. Press Download all — the queue survives a restart.
CH 04Download queue1:18
Three run at once, one to six in Settings. The rest wait in line and say so. Pause, resume and retry, with errors in plain words like “this video is private”.
CH 05Image galleries1:30
Paste a post from Instagram, Facebook or Reddit and every image in it loads as a grid. Untick what you don’t want. Files are saved byte for byte, so PNG transparency survives.
CH 06Torrents1:42
Paste a magnet link or open a .torrent file. Each card draws its download speed as a line and its upload as little spikes, live, and picks up again after a restart.
CH 07Built-in browser1:57
Microsoft Edge’s engine with the AdGuard ad blocker built in. One search field, five search engines, and live wallpapers drawn by the GPU that pause when you look away.
CH 08Download button2:10
When a page plays video, the Download button in the toolbar lights up. One click sends it to the Video tab — no copying links between windows.
CH 09Bookmarks2:23
Ctrl+D to bookmark, a bookmarks bar, and a searchable All bookmarks panel. Right-click any bookmark to rename it or change its address.
CH 10Private tabs2:36
Press Ctrl+Shift+N and the whole window turns black and white while a private tab is in view, so you can’t mistake it. This page does the same while you read this.
CH 11History2:46
Thumbnails, search and filters. Play a file or open its folder, or tick a few rows and remove them from history or send the files to the Recycle Bin.
CH 12Settings2:58
Save folder, downloads at once, quality for new links, format, theme, colour and Reduce motion. Updates install from here too: signed, checked, and with a way back.
CH 13Themes3:09
Sapphire, Ruby, Gold, Emerald, Obsidian, Amethyst and Rose Gold, each with a day version, carried through every button and panel. Scroll slowly: this page follows along.

Why this exists
I edit video for a living. I was forever pulling clips off YouTube, stills off Instagram, and the odd film or game over torrent — and every tool that did it properly wanted a subscription before it would run at full speed or unlock the formats I actually needed.
So I built the one I wanted. It is free, there are no ads, there is nothing to subscribe to, and it never asks you to log in.
If it saves you an afternoon, that was the whole point.
