Quick Download
Called Don't fetch data in the app. Prevent data fetching when loading an url in the download card. U can still try to data fetch in the download card
Prevent Duplicate Downloads
- Disabled
- Download Archive (With this the app stores a txt file of all links that were processed and compares against it when you try to download the same link again and stops you. It uses yt-dlp's own download archive)
- URL & Download Type (compares against url and download type)
- Full Configuration (compares whether the same yt-dlp command is used)
When a duplicate is found you get to decide if you want to continue anyway. Use Download archive folder to pick where the archive file is stored.
Download delay
Wait the configured seconds between each download, as a minimum and maximum delay so the wait is random. Useful against websites that block fast repeated requests. This feature disables concurrent downloads.
Download over Metered Networks
If disabled the downloads will stay in queue until you connect to a wifi network
Force IPv4
Might be useful on some downloads to use ipv4 only connections
Use cookies
Pass your saved cookies to yt-dlp.
Socks5 Proxy URL
Set a proxy url to use to download with. HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS proxies are supported.
Preferred Download Type
If you have download card enabled, it will select the type and if its disabled it will immediately download in that preferred download type. If preferred download type is command, it will use the last used command template or ur preferred command template
If the type is set to Auto the app will select audio format for certain kinds of urls like Youtube Music or Soundcloud.

Retries and Fragment Retries
Related to socket timeout. After a download is considered to failed, set the amount of times to retry before giving up

You can set the time period when the app should download
Download on schedule
When enabled, downloads only run between the Start and End times. Outside of this window they wait in the queue. Handy to download at night, or when your connection is free.
Use AlarmManager
A more strict method to wake up the app to start downloading in time, since WorkManager respects your device restrictions it could be delayed. Needs the exact alarm permission, which the app will ask for.
