Hi Product Hunt community! 👋 As a macOS user who missed the robust, multi-part downloading capabilities of Windows’ Internet Download Manager (IDM), I noticed the Mac ecosystem lacked a truly modern, native, and completely free alternative. So, I built AVS Download Manager from scratch using SwiftUI. Key Highlights: • Native & Lightweight: Built for macOS 14+ (Apple Silicon & Intel). • Multi-Connection Acceleration: Fast multi-part downloading with pause/resume and scheduling. • Browser Extension: Native messaging for Chrome, Edge, and Brave to capture files and media. • HLS & DASH Capture: Download page streams (m3u8) that browsers can’t save as standard files. • YouTube & Playlists: Direct video and playlist downloads with quality selection or audio-only extraction. • Built-in Torrent & Media Converter: Manage torrents and convert audio/video (MP4, MKV, MP3, etc.) directly in-app. • Privacy: App Lock with Touch ID support. Pricing: 100% free with no ads, no subscriptions, and no feature paywalls. Download DMG: https://avsdownloadmanager.com Looking forward to your feedback and suggestions!
