And the small things that add up

  • Lives in the menu bar or system tray, downloads keep going with the window closed
  • Instrumental versions of songs, and Spotify links matched on YouTube
  • Uses your browser's YouTube login when YouTube asks if you're a bot
  • Updates itself, and keeps its download engine up to date
Cloud

Whole folders. Not 2 GB zips.

Download a big folder from the Google Drive website and you get it chopped into zip parts. Dwn copies it file by file, exactly as it's stored, and picks up where it left off if the connection drops.

  • Shared with me, by person. Everyone sharing with you, each with their files.
  • Shared links. Paste a Drive folder someone sent you and browse all of it.
  • Drag and drop. Your Mac and the cloud side by side. Drag either way to copy.
