Lynx Download Manager Integration

Hands the downloads you start in your browser to Lynx Download Manager, the download manager made for the Mac. Needs the Lynx app.

Lynx Download Manager Integration connects your browser to Lynx, a download manager for Mac. Downloads you start in the browser go to Lynx, where they pause, resume and survive a dropped connection or a restart. It needs the Lynx app on the same Mac (macOS 14 or later, Apple silicon). Get it at www.lynxdownloadmanager.com. This extension is free. Without the app, the extension does nothing and every download stays in your browser. What it does • Catches the downloads you start and hands them to Lynx. If Lynx can't fetch the same file itself, such as a one-time link, the download stays with the browser. • Puts a small Lynx button on pages with a video: download it, or open it in Lynx and cut just the part you need, without downloading the whole video. • Opens private Google Drive files. With your OK, Lynx uses this browser's Google sign-in for that file. • Right-click a link, or select text with several links, to send them to Lynx. • Shows your downloads in the toolbar popup, with pause, resume, Start Now for scheduled ones, and Show in Finder. • Starts Lynx in the background if it isn't open. • "Download in the browser instead" is always one click away, and you can turn Lynx off for any site. In the Lynx app • Clip: save just the part of a video you need, as video, vertical, square, GIF or audio. • On a Mac with a notch, downloads and copied links show right in the notch. • Turbo Mode uses your Wi-Fi and your iPhone's connection together. Your data The extension talks only to the Lynx app on your computer, and it asks before it takes any downloads. When it hands a download to Lynx, it passes the file's link, the page it came from and that site's cookies for the file, so downloads behind a sign-in keep working. A page goes to Lynx only when you use its button or menu. For a private Google Drive file, Lynx asks you first and keeps that sign-in only in memory, for that one file. Nothing is sent to us or anyone else. Privacy policy: https://www.lynxdownloadmanager.com/privacy
