Features

Everything it does, in one list.

The short version of the manual. Each area links to the documentation when you need the detail.

Downloading

Stream splitting

Files are cut into sections fetched at the same time over HTTP, HTTPS, FTP and FTPS, then joined on disk.

Resume

A dropped connection continues from the byte it stopped at — including after a reboot.

BitTorrent

Torrent files and magnet links are handled by the program itself, not a bolted-on plug-in.

Getting links in

Browser integration

Chrome, Firefox, Edge, Opera, Vivaldi, Safari, Brave, Yandex and Internet Explorer.

Clipboard monitoring

Copy a link and the program offers to take it, without switching windows.

Video and audio

Capture media from the sites you use, and play the file before it has finished arriving.

Keeping order

Categories

File types map to folders automatically, with no limit on how deep the tree goes.

Scheduler

Queue downloads for the hours your connection is idle, then let the machine sleep.

FTP Explorer

Browse an FTP server like a folder, with saved passwords in the site manager.

For the impatient

Command line

Add, start and schedule downloads from a script. See the <a href="/docs/ida/tutorial-commandline">reference</a>.

Antivirus check

Hand finished files to your scanner, optionally only for the extensions you name.

Plug-ins and skins

Extend the program, or change how it looks, without waiting for a release.

All of it is free
