Key Features
Folx Pro is Browser-Friendly
When you come across something you want to download online, Folx can automatically capture downloads, or you can specify to capture only certain types of files for download. Folx also offers a browser extension to download all files, selected files, or initiate downloads with Folx. Supported browsers include Safari, Firefox, Opera, and Chrome.
Download via Proxy
Proxy servers serve various purposes. Browsing through a proxy can offer anonymity, allowing you to download content that may not be accessible via your own IP address. It also enables managing Internet traffic within a corporate network by splitting it between direct and proxy channels. Note that only regular downloads (not torrent downloads) can be routed through a proxy.
Fast Downloading with PRO
Each download can be split into multiple segments (up to 20). By fetching the same file through multiple simultaneous connections in chunks, the download process can be significantly faster than other methods.
Speed Control with PRO
To optimize traffic distribution, you can manually adjust download speeds or let Folx automatically manage bandwidth. This ensures that other online applications are not affected by the download activity.
Scheduled Downloads with PRO
You can choose the most convenient time to start a download and set actions for Folx to perform upon completion: shut down the system, switch to sleep mode, or simply exit Folx.
Music Integration with PRO
You can instruct Folx to automatically send all downloaded music and videos to Music (formerly iTunes). The content is distributed into corresponding named playlists based on the tags assigned to each download.
Remember Login Credentials with PRO
Starting a new download from a website requiring authentication, you can ask Folx to remember your login credentials. Subsequent downloads from the same site will not require you to re-enter them. You can also save passwords for FTP and HTTP sites in Folx. The free version of Folx allows you to save two entries. It also supports websites requiring web authentication.
Download Videos from the Web with PRO
You can use Folx to download videos from the web, specifying the desired format. It's also possible to download age-restricted and private videos. When you only need the audio track, Folx is particularly useful! All video files downloaded with this internet downloader can be saved manually, either immediately after discovery or on a scheduled basis.
