A lightweight batch download manager with flexible filtering and mass-renaming options for easier, more efficient downloads. Simple Mass Downloader is a lightweight and unobtrusive Chrome download manager and batch/bulk/mass downloader. GOOD FOR: Downloading multiple resources from the web: ● Extract only the desired links from web pages using an advanced filtering system. ● Generate better file names using contextual information from the corresponding links (name masks). ● Organize downloads into custom directories using Favorite Folders or Automatic Folders. NOT SO GOOD FOR: ● Downloading streaming media or embedded videos. ● JavaScript-heavy websites where download links are generated on the fly after user interaction. In such cases, the extension cannot detect the links in advance. ● Extract links from the active tab, multiple open tabs, or selected text on web pages. You can also import links from the clipboard, a local file, or a pattern URL. ● Advanced filtering and mass-renaming capabilities using various name masks. You can also define custom categories for resource filtering. ● A dedicated thumbnail grid view for images. Images can be sorted by size or filtered by width and height. ● Flexible download management: a) Pause, resume, and open downloaded files. b) Set server limits or enable sequential downloading mode. ● Development and testing are mainly performed on Windows, with limited testing on Linux. The extension has not been tested on macOS. ● Before using the extension, verify that the “Ask where to save each file before downloading” option is disabled in Chrome’s download settings. Otherwise, multiple “Save As” dialog boxes will appear, defeating the purpose of a mass-downloading extension.
