A decade of use

To someone with limited resources, this app can be an absolute lifesaver. In school, I've used some version of this app for collecting material for offline use; homework, old tests, mock tests, syllabuses, study packets, diagrams, references, lectures, PERFORMANCE VIDEOS. I've saved music for personalized ringtones, I bought a copy for my mom to keep her knitting patterns, work applications, my New Hire forms were saved here, various event tickets, this app holds it all.

Ive had bugs, some minor, some requiring me to extract my files through my computer, but even having that last option available is amazing, instead of having to lose everything when reinstalling the app. Bug fixes can be thin on the ground, and its apparent that not all iOS updates will agree with the app, but it always comes back into working order, and seriously. Its a worthwhile investment.

Ive had this app since high school. That was a decade ago. Bought the first one. Bought the second version when its predecessor became obsolete. Would probably buy the next one, cuz its so friggin useful.

Update: glitch fixed, better than ever

Glad the developer took comments seriously and addressed their previous update that sent the app into a tailspin of crashes. Great improvements to the UI, helpful to save tons of diverse content files for easy storage and retrieval. Would only be better if made accessible to iPhone's Files App to facilitate transfer to a thumb drive.

Twice I've had a bug make me look at the other downloader programs out there and realize none is as good as this one for downloading and organizing content, easy playback et al.

Glad for the update but issues still exist

Hian, I've been using this app for years and was beyond delighted to see an update for this today. The update fixes the crash issue that was introduced with iOS 13. I am now able to save webpages again which was one of my primary uses. It seems now however that you took out the ability to set mime types. This was instrumental in the functionality so now the download option for a lot of file types is now broken and thus unable to be saved. I'm not sure what would have led you to this decision, but I implore you to add it back. If this were implemented again your app could easily be the best download manager on the App Store. My last suggestion would be to add an alphabetical scroll option to the files view. Thank you again for your work, I look forward to future improvements.
