Burst Download Manager

Sends magnet links and torrent files to Burst for fast downloading.

Burst is a download manager that bonds multiple network interfaces Wi-Fi, Ethernet, and USB-tethered mobile into a single parallel download stream, so you get the combined bandwidth of all your connections at once. It splits every file into chunks and routes each chunk through a different interface simultaneously. A real-time scheduler monitors connection speeds, drops underperforming interfaces, and rebalances weights on the fly no manual configuration needed. Burst handles both HTTP downloads and magnet/torrent links through the same pipeline. This extension intercepts downloads from your browser and hands them off to the Burst desktop app via native messaging. The desktop app runs as a tray-resident FastAPI server with a React UI, giving you a clean dashboard to monitor speeds, active interfaces, and download progress. Requirements: The Burst desktop app must be installed and running for this extension to work.
