Native Direct Connect for Apple Silicon Macs

TigerDC++ brings Direct Connect to Apple Silicon Macs with a native interface. Search across hubs, browse file lists, combine sources for the same download, and preview downloaded files with Quick Look. Requires macOS 26 or later. Try all features for 24 hours; then €19 once for two personal Macs, including 1.x updates.


Hi, I’m Sergey, the developer of TigerDC++ at Pinemoon Studios.
I’m building a native Direct Connect client for people who use DC hubs on Apple Silicon Macs. You can search connected hubs or expand a search to additional known hubs, browse someone’s file list, organize downloads in a queue, and use multiple sources for the same file. Quick Look and Finder integration help once a download is finished.
The current version is 0.27 (70), for macOS 26 or later, in English and Russian. The full-feature trial lasts 24 hours. A license is €19 once for two personal Macs and includes 1.x updates; taxes are shown at checkout. Paid use needs an online license check at least every seven days.
The direct download is not Apple-notarized. The website explains how to approve the first launch in macOS settings.
If you use Direct Connect on a Mac, I’d like to hear which parts of your current workflow are hardest to replace.
