Description from store
This is a light and unobtrusive chrome download manager and batch/bulk/mass downloader.
Good for:
Assist the user in batch downloading various resources from the web:
● extract from the bulk links of web pages only desired ones (advanced filtering system)
● give better names for downloading files using the contextual info available for the corresponding links (name masks system)
● organise downloads by directing them to appropriate custom folders (favorite or automatic folders)
NOT so good for:
● downloading streaming media or embedded videos
● heavily javascripted sites where download links are generated "on the fly" (on user clicks) so my extension cannot see them in advance for objective reasons)
MAIN FEATURES:
● The links may be extracted from active tab / multiple open tabs or from selected text on web pages. Also from the clipboard or a local file or a pattern URL.
● Advanced filtering/mass renaming capabilities using various name masks. Also with user-defined categories for resource filtering.
● For images, there is a special thumbnails grid view where items may be ordered by the size or filtered by width/height.
● Flexible routing system: the user can set Automatic Folders where downloads are automatically directed based on custom rules.
● User-defined Favorite Folders, easily accessible when the user needs a custom download directory.
● Flexible download management, the user can:
a) pause, resume, open downloaded files, etc. (usual features)
b) set server limits or force sequential downloading mode.
● The URL list can be exported using various name masks
Please, note that
● Development is mainly done in Windows, with limited testing in Linux. No testing possibilities on MacOS, sorry.
● Before using, please verify that "Ask where to save each file before downloading" option in Chrome Download Settings is NOT checked. Otherwise, a lot of "Save As" dialog boxes will pop up, defeating the main purpose of this extension (or any other mass downloading chrome extension).

- (2024-12-01) Muhammad IMRAN: best tool
- (2024-11-22) Walker Richardson: Works perfect. Need to pre-create the folders if you do not want to download to the default directory. I love being able to filter results with a simple text box. Very useful feature!
- (2024-10-04) Authorias: Exactly what I'm looking for
- (2024-09-15) E GIBSON: Works great. Had to change download setting in google chrome and figure that out but love the software!!
- (2024-08-25) Mouton Rustique: Very simple to use 'as is' and offers interesting more advanced options. As close to perfection as one can get for this kind of app/use case.
- (2024-08-21) Admir Merdovic: Worked very well, downloaded ~900 audio samples from a website. Would've been impossible to do by hand so thanks :)
- (2024-08-18) Emily -x-: I'm sure there's something it could do better or is missing something helpful but the name of it is "simple mass downloader" and that's exactly what it is and I am so appreciative for it doing exactly that. I end up having to work with a lot of academic articles, old old books and images and I find using web browsers to do this frustrating so I am constantly queuing up tabs to download from libraries and will eventually break my hand individually clicking. Using this has made the process so freaking manageable especially with the options in the app to set up negative parameters in the search options. I've tried all sorts of different extensions and there are some I still use for specific uses but this is the one I have enabled by default. Thank you for this~~!
- (2024-08-16) wyrren: This is amazing to download lots of CC for games without clicking for hours. Why is it getting banned??
- (2024-08-09) Javier de Alfonso: This extension has saved my life. Good job.
- (2024-08-08) Sabrina “Ki-Ki” T.: Helped at lot!
- (2024-07-20) Nick Robertson: Did just what I needed It too!
- (2024-07-08) He Who In the Earthly Domain Seeks Heavenly Wisdom: Very helpful for backing up Pinterest boards. Just keep adding the image links from the context menu as you scroll to next set of images. Then you can save the either links to a text file, or download the images to a folder. You can select the jpg types or all image types like gif, webp, png. And it usually gets the originals, not the scaled down version; AI images need to be navigated to directly to get the original; it won't get the original for them automatically. But either way the files are named as they are in the link with image id; so very simple to get originals from that just in case. Next is how to get the pin id from the image id so I can link back to the pin information. Then create a personal gallery management system without rules and maybe host it using the link information so no storage needed. Also be careful if you have other image scraper extensions running in chrome as they can interfere with the download process and cause errors. ================== How I backed up my boards with this extension: Using simple mass downloader (C). Disable or remove any other scraper extension to prevent download errors. List boards with each of their sections into a flat list (A). Navigate to each area mentioned in (A). Retrieve the area path (B) mentioned in the list. Also in the URL. Like "board-name\section-name". Change download directory in (C) to (application__profile-name) + '\' + (B). Like "Pinterest__UserName\BoardnameA\SectionA"; don't use trailing slashes or foreword slashes (/) or it might break . Clear download list and reset resource list. If browser crashes, reload and restore the pages and try again. In the area (B), 1. use the context menu and click "add page links to list"; 2. select image extension to filter by in the popup window; 3. scroll to until the bottomost image on the screen is topmost on the screen; 4. repeat steps 1-3 until the bottom of the page is reached.
- (2024-06-26) Jorge Barrios: Simple, easy, intuitive. Great all around.
- (2024-06-21) al.smirnov: Perfect
- (2024-06-04) My Web Duties: User interface is not intuitive. Very hard to use and it doesn't make sense. The developer sabotaged the functionality of his own app with a bad and unnecessarily fancy design.
- (2024-05-29) Jacob Fenix: Selected 130 images, it then asked me to save each one. I presume this is because my Google setting is set to Save As - this add on should at least give me the option to cancel the whole download rather than queuing them all up and locking up my browser until i've saved each invdivudual image.
- (2024-05-29) AK xyz: Works. Private. Small footprint and size. Good! Hope the author will keep looking for ways of improving it! Thank you.
- (2024-05-15) Jerry Saraza: very good! it's simple and it works.
- (2024-05-11) zheng shi: very good extension! Even better if URL list could support definition of download directory inside the file when "import URLs from local files"
- (2024-05-08) Jack: It works but my god if it isnt overcomplicated.. It should be very simple to change the download location. I followed the quick start guide but nothing ever went where it should have.
- (2024-04-10) fdemitroff: Excellent
- (2024-04-04) Zulma Dennis: Hace años que empecé a utilizar la extensión y descargaba muy bien los documentos de cualquier página... hace tiempo que no la he podido utilizar, no puedo descargar ningún documento en ninguna página.
- (2024-03-18) Jiacheng Zhao: A very nice downloader! Thank you so much for developing this extension!
- (2024-02-29) Matt Smith: Straightforward, effective, efficient, powerful - all the things I prefer in software. Thank you for this wonderful freebie!
- (2024-02-28) John Pavlecich: Works great! Saved me a bunch of time.
- (2024-02-24) Irina Isha: I was looking for a Chrome addon that could replicate the "Save from tabs to the right/left" functionality of Firefox's "Tab Image Saver" and this is the only one that could do it. All-around useful for bulk downloading.
- (2024-01-18) Jason Toon: I right-click, choose "Add page links to list", nothing happens.
- (2023-12-30) Mohamed Al Gamel: Great software and easy to use. Choosing what type of links to download is genius <3
- (2023-12-28) Adam Rice: I should have got this extension years ago. It is simple and excellent. Even if you think you don't need this, if you ever download more than one file from a web page, it will save you time. If I were to make one change, I would make it scan the page automatically when clicking the extension icon if the current list is empty. This would save me one click.
- (2023-11-20) amordo: works right from the box, thanks!
