Ratings and Comments about NewzDroid NZB Downloader for Android

by M Kelley the 7/28/2011

It dl's an NZB. I put the NZB in the queue folder manually. I "select all", click dl. It appears to dl the files. Then...no usable files anywhere...

Would be 5 stars if multiple connections were supported and were allowed to open a file within the app rather than using a 3rd party file manager

Queues up but won't download files. OG Droid.

Not the most helpful app, no real feedback if its not signing in to your Usenet client. However, it works, could be better but not bad.

The program itself isn't very self explanatory. I though it was broken until I followed a comment suggestion to select all files in nzb you download.

Needs support for multiple connections, to fully utilize 4G. Also, interface is very messy.

In theory it works. In practice, the effort to get working nzb files and the extremely slow speeds make the app useless. Nice concept, terrible app.

Pretty good Contrary to the complaints, it does actually work. My HTC Thunderbolt is downloading a file right now at 248 KB/s over wifi. That's not slow for a cell phone, but a speed test app shows the phone downloading at 3,800KB/s on this connection - so clearly NewzDroid is not making good use of the available bandwidth. That said, I'm still downloading NZBs on my phone!!! So even though it's not the fastest, and kind of cumberrsome to copy NZBs into the queue folder manually, I'm gonna say it's worth the $3.99.

Perfect!

Must have for anyone who wants to grab nzbs, linked to newzbin and set it up to access my Usenet account. Works great.

Unreliable, but the only one available.

Can't resume downloads and sometimes things just wont download

by Paul the 4/2/2011

Below average when it works, keeps closing the download 90% of the time so doesn't work! Wished I read the comments before buying.

by Clyde the 3/28/2011

scam. The positive comments are lies. This app is old, no updates and doesn't work. Don't be fooled. Positive comments are shills.

Works great, use Firefox Mobile to get nzbs and you're set!

by Dan the 3/2/2011

Newzsearchpro not found in market worthless without it. Please also let it import nzbs

Developer seems to have abandoned this project. Doesn't work well. Cannot sustain speed and will randomly just lost connection and not get it back...

by daniel the 2/16/2011

Yer it works. But its poorly coded, hogs cpu. For me it runs at 100kb over wifi. My pc runs at 1300kb. So its slow and a pain set up. Dont pay 4 it

Word to the wise: download "Download All Files". Good start, and worth the money

by Michael the 2/8/2011

pair this with nzb air, and you have a perfect combination for downloading Usenet binaries
