It's great. It would be even better if the icon was the same as the main app ;-)

Super helpful – thank you so much!!

I've tried Video DownloadHelper as a YouTube-DL alternative to download a paid video I had rented on Vimeo. The extension offers to downloaded the 1920 x 1080 pixels DASH stream, and downloads it fast, but then it launches a transcoding (called an aggregation), even though I've disabled "Force H264 tuning in aggregation", which would have taken hours. It turns out the free version adds a watermark, which requires post-processing and transcoding. My understanding is that you have to pay €18.50 for a premium license to get fast downloads without transcoding.

So I have turned to Downie 4 by Permute's developer Charlie Monroe, which is also paid at €18.99, but has the advantage of being up front about it. Alternatively it is included in the Setapp subscription service. It has a cleaner interface and it works with Chrome and Firefox as well as Safari and Opera.

好用

Semplice, pratico e rapido

I just LOVE Downie!! It is a little app, but Oh, boy, SO powerful. Reliable, quick, easy to run.

And then there is the absolutely fantastic support.

How do you give it 6 stars? Anyone know a hack? ;-)
