Version 2.0 is a major rewrite of the Download Manager for Android application. It now supports downloading file parts in parallel for servers that support it, bringing a boost in download speed! Additionally, link sharing, is supported to start downloads from the browser or email.
Features:
- Supports downloading from browser or email via link share (press and hold the URL, choose share link, and select Download Manager from the list)
- Better download performance (download file parts in parallel)
- Better UI and more clear fonts (displaying progress for download as well as parts, ETA, download speed and status)
- Possibility to restart download (in case of stop or error)
- File save policy now renames file in case of collision, and notifies it
- Better looking download history
- Better looking icons
- Should open files from history now better
- No more attempts to respond to all URLs (mixed up with browsers)
Planned Updates:
- Properly persisted pause/resume even if app is killed
- Possibility to specify expected MD5 checksum when starting download
- Compare checksum once download is completed
- Delete downloaded files
- Bring up dialog in case of filename collisions (overwrite, rename, append, etc.)
- Support for HTTP basic web authentication (username/password)
Feedback/Known Issues:
- Please inform URLs that don't work to the developer to improve the application
- In some cases the filename is returned encoded from the server in the content-disposition header, which results in an error (this is under investigation)
